Abstract
This study examines the hedging and safe-haven characteristics across the various segments of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). It adopts the case study approach to blend the key study findings on the risk and return aspects of different NFT segments. The study finds that various segments of NFTs have mixed levels of correlations with traditional financial assets. Online games and metaverse segments of NFTs display a link to the crypto assets. Similarly, only the metaverse segment shows an association with the market sentiment. Art, online games, and collectibles segments within the NFTs space show mixed levels of hedging. However, all NFT segments under consideration show ambiguous safe-haven facets. Overall, the present study highlights some of the important aspects to consider while investing in the different segments of NFTs with respect to portfolio optimization, market dynamics, and risk management.
