Boomers held Bitcoin ETFs through 54% crash but missed 16% S&P 500 rally

Baby Boomers showed discipline by holding Bitcoin ETFs despite a 54% price crash over the past year. However, while they stayed loyal to Bitcoin ETFs, the S&P 500 ETF rose 15.5%, meaning they missed out on the best broad-market gains in a decade. The Bitcoin price dropped from $126,296 in October 2025 to $57,717 in July 2026, while the S&P 500 benefited from strong mega-cap growth stocks like NVIDIA. The key factor to watch next is the 10-year Treasury yield, which affects valuations of these growth stocks and could impact the S&P 500's future performance.

While Baby Boomers held onto Bitcoin ETFs through a significant price drop, Nvidia, a key driver of the S&P 500's gains, continues to show strength. On Pluang, Nvidia trades at USD 219.33 with a 1-day gain of 2.54% as of Sep 18, 2026 01:12 WIB. The stock's market cap stands at $5.17 trillion, reflecting ongoing investor interest in mega-cap growth stocks that have boosted the broader market.
