Markets are cyclical, and so is the sun, moon, and the rest of the solar system. But could solar cycles specifically be what controls the ebb and flow of financial markets like Bitcoin and stocks?

A study of the VIX, the S&P 500 and cryptocurrency concludes that there may be something more to the relationship. And with the sun waking up from a decade long slumber and beginning to grow in activity, a longer-term top in markets could be near.
