Fed to cut interest rates in September? Don't be fooled by this maze of rate cuts!

Hey guys, the financial market has been really lively lately, and everyone is going crazy about the news that the Fed is going to cut interest rates in September. Even Trump has jumped in to make a statement, making it feel like the entire financial circle is about to go wild. Friends in the crypto world are even more energized, hoping for a bull market to hit soon. But we need to calm down and think this through; it's really not that simple. There are many hidden intricacies behind this, and we shouldn't be fooled by appearances.
1. Fed: It’s not as easy to be led by the "doves" as you think.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Trump has appointed a few dovish officials, but the core members of the Fed, especially Powell, are quite tough. He clearly told everyone that for interest rate cuts, we need to see a tangible decline in inflation data; it can't just be achieved by shouting the slogan "cut interest rates." The Fed has a heavy responsibility; it must maintain market stability and ensure healthy economic development. The biggest fear is that inflation will rear its head again and destroy the confidence that the market has worked hard to build. While the speculative sentiment in the crypto world can be exuberant, the Fed won't just follow along blindly; they make their decisions with rigor.
2. Inflation: The "Super Monster" on the Path to Interest Rate Cuts
Although CPI and PPI seem to indicate a bit of a decline, core inflation is still high, which shows that price pressures have not really been resolved. If the Fed suddenly decides to cut interest rates in September, it would be a disaster, like pouring a big bucket of oil on a raging fire of inflation; by then, inflation could truly spiral out of control, and the Fed would have to repeatedly adjust its policies. This is a significant risk for the cryptocurrency market. Are you all really prepared to deal with this terrifying uncertainty?
3. Employment Market: The economy is as steady as an "old dog", and there is no urgency to cut interest rates.
Taking a look away from the crypto circle and focusing on the broader economic field, the U.S. job data is truly impressive, and wages are steadily rising. This clearly indicates that there are no signs of recession in the U.S. economy. In such circumstances, the Fed usually lowers interest rates to put out fires, but with the economy doing well, there’s no fire to extinguish, making the necessity for rate cuts very low. For the crypto circle, this means that funds may still be trapped in the "suffocating" state of tightening U.S. dollar liquidity. Don't expect a loosening market to bail you out in the short term; the fantasy of rate cuts leading to a funding frenzy is likely to be dashed.
4. Market Expectations: Overheated speculation, it needs to cool down!
Currently, the investors and enthusiasts in the market are treating interest rate cuts as a magical tool for rescuing the market, rushing in like a swarm, and funds in the crypto space are also following the trend recklessly, which easily leads to bubbles. The Fed has stated that policies should be based on data, and they won't be led by market emotions. If the enthusiasts in the crypto space continue to blindly follow the trend, be careful of becoming "chives" that get harvested. The market is already so overheated; we need to calm down, be more rational, to protect our wallets.
5. Global Situation: The "Big Trouble" Adding Constraints to Fed Policies
It's not just a matter for the United States; the global economic recovery is as slow as a snail, and geopolitical tensions are high, which greatly complicates the Fed's policy decisions. With such a complex and unstable global situation, can the Fed afford to be anything but cautious in its policy decisions? The cryptocurrency market is global, and we need to keep an eye on changes in the macro environment, as there are quite a few risks hidden within.
Crypto Circle Baby Operation Guide:
- At this stage, the liquidity situation is expected to be tight, so don't be blindly optimistic and go long. The market is like a roller coaster, with very high risks, and we need to be very cautious.
- The key inflation data and employment reports in the second half of the year need to be closely monitored, as they are the "golden key" to determining whether the Fed will cut interest rates. Once we see significant positive news in these data, it will give us more confidence in making investment decisions.
- Always maintain risk awareness and manage your funds well. Don't let the short-term fluctuations of the market confuse you, and don't get lost in following the trend. Properly manage your funds to protect your principal in the unpredictable market.
- Don't overlook the Fed meeting minutes and speeches from officials; pay more attention, as you might catch a whiff of policy changes in advance, allowing you to position yourself and seize opportunities.
Dear ones, although the market is buzzing with calls for a rate cut by the Fed in September, the underlying logic is as thin as paper. In the crypto world, we must remain calm and rational, and not be swept away by those vague expectations of rate cuts. Only by steadily focusing on the subtle changes in data and policy can we seize real opportunities amidst the tumultuous market waves, avoiding being misled by the false prosperity of the market. In this complex financial market, if we navigate wisely, we might even thrive!
