As the <a href="https://finbold.com/category/cryptocurrency-news/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">cryptocurrency market</a> continues to brave through the <a href="https://finbold.com/guides/finance/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">financial</a> crisis that has already crushed several major <a href="https://finbold.com/guides/banking/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">banking</a> institutions, Bitcoin (<a href="https://finbold.com/cryptocurrency/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BTC</a>) has recorded better results than nearly 100% of the 500 leading publicly traded companies in the United States during the third month of 2023.Indeed, since March 10, the price of <a href="https://finbold.com/topic/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> has increased by 37.06% and over 72% since the year’s turn, while the flagship <a href="https://finbold.com/cryptocurrencies/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">cryptocurrency</a> registered better year-to-date (YTD) returns than 488 or 97.6% of S&amp;P 500 companies, including FedEx (NYSE: <a href="https://finbold.com/stock/fedex-stock-fdx/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">FDX</a>), Apple (NASDAQ: <a href="https://finbold.com/stock/apple-aapl/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">AAPL</a>), and Amazon (NASDAQ: <a href="https://finbold.com/stock/amazon-amzn/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">AMZN</a>), according to the data shared with <a href="https://finbold.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Finbold</a> by the <a href="https://finbold.com/guides/cryptocurrency/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">crypto</a> education platform CryptoManiaks on March 22.By comparison, only 12 companies among the S&amp;P 500 have managed to cross the threshold of 35% in YTD returns, which means that Bitcoin has outperformed the 27.2% YTD returns of FedEx, the 19.3% YTD returns achieved by Apple, and the 17.8% recorded by Amazon, as the table demonstrates.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/9d69ed8166fc49aab51840a9eb36af4e.png" />Bitcoin vs. publicly traded companies.
