The rebound in mining stocks coincides with renewed optimism in the Bitcoin market ahead of the U.S. election. This has propelled Bitcoin close to $69,000 and boosted mining profitability back to the critical $50/PH/s threshold.

As of this publication, Bitcoin is trading at $68,400, approximately 7% below its all-time high of around $73,500. In contrast, nearly all major mining stocks remain significantly below their 52-week highs documented earlier this year, with the exception of Core Scientific.

Year-to-date, Bitcoin has risen by 55%, outperforming most mining stocks, which are typically regarded as leveraged plays on Bitcoin. Only Core Scientific and Terawulf have recorded higher returns than Bitcoin so far this year.
