#PowellRemarks
FED keeps interest rates unchanged.
But Jerome Powell just gave us a hint.
Altcoins. Liquidity. Bull run timing.
1/ The Federal Reserve just kept interest rates at 4.25%–4.50%
That’s the 4th pause in a row, and it was expected.
Only 4 of 19 Fed officials expect any rate cuts in June 2025.
That’s a message: No pivot yet.
2/ So why no cuts yet?
Simple: Inflation is above the Fed's current target
- CPI: 2.4%
- Core CPI: 2.8%
- Fed target: 2.0%
They’re not turning the money printer back on… yet.
Which means: Tight conditions stay longer.
3/ Yes, the economy is improving and jobs are steady, growth isn’t collapsing.
Fed is still worried:
• Tariffs from Trump
• Global tensions
• Sticky services inflation
