Core International Financial News Summary for the Evening of October 8 I. Federal Reserve Policy Developments 1. The September FOMC meeting minutes showed that all members unanimously agreed to raise the federal funds target range by 25 basis points to 3.75%-4%. Most officials believed another rate hike before the end of 2026 would be appropriate, with the decision dependent on subsequent inflation and employment data. 2. Kansas City Fed President Schmid delivered hawkish remarks, emphasizing that the Federal Reserve still has significant work to do to contain inflation. He warned that the Fed’s credibility would be in serious jeopardy if it failed to continue taking action, further strengthening market expectations that “higher rates will persist for longer.” 3. The meeting minutes mentioned that energy prices and artificial intelligence investment could increase inflation persistence, serving as the core reasons for officials’ support for continued rate hikes. II. Gold Market Developments 1. Affected by expectations of Federal Reserve rate hikes, gold prices fell to 890 yuan/gram. After the short-term negative impact of rate hikes was priced in, the market generally believes that gold prices have room for a corrective rebound amid volatility. 2. In October 2025, the price range of the Shanghai gold continuous contract was 893.64-1001.96 yuan/gram. During the same period, international gold prices fluctuated at high levels within the range of $3,441-$4,262/ounce, with an overall gain of approximately 56% year to date, indicating a technical need for an overbought correction. III. Energy Market Developments 1. On October 7, the International Energy Agency (IEA) announced that member states had agreed to accelerate implementation of the oil reserve release plan for March 2026. Approximately 100 million barrels of reserves remain to be released, with diesel to be prioritized to ease supply tightness. 2. Approximately 325 million barrels of oil have been released under the plan. If fully implemented, expectations of falling oil prices will indirectly ease inflationary pressures and weaken the momentum for further Federal Reserve rate hikes. IV. Reference Impact on 15-Minute Strategies for Cryptocurrency (ETH) 1. Expectations of Federal Reserve rate hikes will weigh on risk asset prices in the short term, and ETH’s short-term volatility may increase. Attention should be paid to the impact of the 3.75%-4% interest-rate range on capital flows. 2. Falling oil prices may ease inflationary pressures and potentially reduce the scale of subsequent Federal Reserve rate hikes, benefiting the medium-term recovery of risk assets such as ETH. Long positions can be established at support levels in conjunction with the Bollinger Bands and MACD indicators. 3. Gold price volatility and correction have a certain substitution effect with ETH’s safe-haven attributes. Attention should be paid to changes in the correlation between gold and ETH, and strategy position sizing should be adjusted accordingly.$ETH ‌$XAUUSD ‌
