Hi Jordan! :)
Well, I would say this: if the Bitcoin price drops, the mining difficulty will remain the same longer periods of time or it will not increase so... this will give you the opportunity of keep mining Bitcoins at the same rate.
I guess in that situation Bitcoin Mining would be a better investment.
We can correlate the Bitcoin price variation with mining variation, even when Bitcoin price drops.
