【Shockwave Approaches】Will Bitcoin Soar to $100,000? Gold Rises Sharply, Fed Decision Ignites Market Nerves!

At a time of global turmoil, the market holds its breath for the Federal Reserve's latest interest rate decision. Meanwhile, safe-haven assets surge: gold has jumped 0.7% to $3,357, while Bitcoin has stabilized at a high of $97,500.

Market consensus predicts that the Fed will maintain interest rates between 4.25%-4.50% at this week's meeting, but the tone of Powell's subsequent remarks will be the ignition point for the next wave of market movements. Especially against the backdrop of stubborn inflation and weak consumption, investors hope to hear some dovish signals to create room for interest rate cuts within the year.

Geopolitical tensions are also adding fuel to the fire. Conflicts have erupted again in the Middle East, with airstrikes and missile attacks escalating, igniting global safe-haven sentiment. Meanwhile, the U.S. president's sudden tough talk about imposing tariffs on imported pharmaceuticals and media products has reignited market concerns over global trade friction.

Gold's rise has also benefited from a return of buying interest from Asia, particularly with funds aiming to reduce dependence on the dollar accelerating. Although Bitcoin is still about 10% off its historic high, it remains optimistic with continued inflows from ETFs.

If the Fed hints at potential rate cuts in the future, the market could face a crucial turning point. Some analysts boldly predict: Bitcoin may challenge the $100,000 mark by mid-year!

Do you think the Fed will turn 'dovish'?
