Hi everyone! I’m Teacher Zhixia. This week, please don’t weld your eyes to the K-line chart.

Before a big breakout, the market surface is often the quietest—so quiet that it makes you think the market is asleep. But in reality, that calm before the storm is exactly when you should be the most alert.

I’ve highlighted the key points on the schedule for you:

📅 July 14 20:30
U.S. June CPI data will be released. The market expects year-over-year may return to the “3 handle.” Once this number deviates from expectations, both the U.S. stock market and the crypto market will have to shake three times.

📅 July 14 22:00
Waller’s first hearing in the House of Representatives. Whether this person speaks like a hawk or a dove directly determines how the market prices the path of subsequent interest rates.

📅 July 15 20:30
June PPI will be released. Whether upstream inflation pressure has truly eased—look at this one, it comes a step earlier than CPI.

📅 July 15 22:00
Waller moves to the Senate, answering questions for two consecutive days. If the wording changes even a tiny bit, the market will scrutinize it with a magnifying glass.

📅 July 16 02:00
The Fed Beige Book—an “examination report” of the U.S. economy. It’s more useful than what any analyst says.

Also, the Iran-Iraq situation is always a tight string—oil prices and risk-off sentiment could be ignited at any moment.

Three variables—inflation data, interest rate expectations, and geopolitical risk—are all packed into this week. If any one of them surprises to the upside or downside, it can smash the current balance and set a direction.

Yesterday, the crypto market saw a sizable liquidation. Over 67,000 people were liquidated, which shows that capital has already been preparing defenses in advance.

There are many voices guessing the top and bottom around 63,000, but I’ve always believed one saying: the real big gain is made by following through after the direction is confirmed—not by gambling when the direction is still blurry.

This week, I’m not rushing to take action. Wait until the cards are turned over, see which way the wind blows clearly, then decide which side to stand on.

The denser the news, the more you have to stay calm. When the wind and waves come, only those who stand firm can get to the fish’s body.
