Powell Speaks: High Rates Here to Stay?

Fed Chair Jerome Powell just dropped a major macro signal: interest rates are likely staying elevated—and not just short-term. The game has changed.

Powell hinted at a fundamental rethink of the Fed's playbook. Why?

• Sticky inflation isn’t going away

• Supply shocks could be more frequent

• The post-2020 economic environment is shifting fast

He stated: "We may be entering a period of recurring, and possibly more persistent, supply shocks." Translation? The Fed may need new tools and tactics—because the old ones aren’t cutting it anymore.

This could mean a more cautious pivot, less rate-cut optimism, and tighter for longer monetary policy. Traders, stay alert—policy shifts this big impact everything: from FX and bonds to crypto and equities.

Time to reassess your macro thesis. Flexibility is your edge.$BTC
