摘要
The study examines the hedge properties of BTC, ETH, and BNB for the Istanbul Stock Exchange 100 Index (XU100). Investors who add cryptocurrencies to XU100-only portfolios reduce risks by 12.10% to 18.60%. Results show that during global events like COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine war, the hedge effectiveness of cryptocurrencies is low. However, during Turkey-specific events such as the Pastor Brunson currency shock, the swap crisis, the dismissal of Central Bank Governor Naci A & gbreve;bal, irrational interest rate cuts, the announcement of the currency-protected deposit system, and the February 6 earthquake, the hedging properties of cryptocurrencies against the XU100 index significantly improve.
