A recent important macro event worth paying attention to. The Federal Reserve is scheduled to hold a meeting from January 27 to 28. Due to the faster-than-expected cooling of inflation, the market is already preparing for rate cuts in the first half of 2026—estimated to be in the range of 50 to 75 basis points. Powell's term will last until May 2026, and policy adjustments during this period typically trigger large-scale capital flows.
How does this flow work? Once rate cut expectations are established, the appeal of defensive assets like gold and silver will decline, and funds will naturally flow into higher-yield, riskier assets—the cryptocurrency market has always been a key destination for such capital. Historically, market cycles follow a relatively clear pattern: first, a slow accumulation phase, then an expansion phase with steady price increases, and finally the out-of-control frenzy period.
Currently, we are roughly transitioning from the accumulation phase to the expansion phase. The strategy for 2026 doesn't need to be overly complicated—mainly focus on maintaining your positions and moving with the market rhythm, rather than constantly trying to cash out at the top. This large-cycle transition usually presents good opportunities for patient investors.
