Sister Yan previews this week’s major events: a super central bank week is coming, and market volatility is set to be significantly amplified.

🔴 Core high-impact events

1. Thursday: Federal Reserve interest rate decision + the Powell press conference + core PCE data (top priority)
This is the number one main storyline for crypto markets this week. If the messaging is hawkish—emphasizing maintaining high rates—BTC will face pressure; if rate-cut signals are released or the wording softens, risk sentiment will rebound, and there will be a window for bulls. Core PCE data will be released at the same time, directly shaping rate-cut expectations, and the market could swing violently at any moment.

2. Tech giant earnings (Meta, Microsoft, Apple, Qualcomm, SK hynix)
Crypto sentiment is closely tied to tech stocks in the US market. Strong earnings → risk appetite rises → bullish for BTC; if earnings miss expectations → tech sector faces pressure → BTC moves in step downward. Pay special attention to storage chips (SK hynix) and the results of leading internet companies, as they will influence capital flows across the broader tech space.

3. Central bank decisions across multiple countries (Bank of England, Bank of Japan, Bank of Canada)
Major central banks take action in a concentrated manner, disrupting the US Dollar Index. A stronger US dollar is bearish for crypto, while a weaker US dollar is bullish for BTC.

🟡 Secondary data to watch

ADP employment, initial jobless claims, European and US PMIs, and CPI/GDP preliminary estimates, etc., reflect the strength or weakness of the economy and indirectly affect expectations for Fed policy—use them only as supplementary reference.

📌 Trading strategy tips

This week’s market will most likely be highly volatile. Before the Fed decision is finalized, capital tends to stay on the sidelines, and short-term price swings will intensify.
Avoid going all-in on speculation; do strict risk control. Wait until the dust settles on the interest rate decision and PCE data, then follow the trend accordingly.
Patience in waiting for direction matters more than making blind moves. $BTC $ETH
