Risk-Off Macro

Definition

Risk-Off Macro describes a global economic environment where investors reduce their exposure to riskier assets and move capital into safer, more stable investments. This sentiment is typically driven by concerns over economic downturns, geopolitical instability, or tightening monetary policies. During a risk-off period, assets perceived as volatile, including many cryptocurrencies, often experience significant price declines. It reflects a cautious approach to global financial markets.
