#PowellWatch 💡 JACKSON HOLE: POWELL ROTATES AXIS, SEPTEMBER CUT RATE PROBABILITY ~90%
Powell acknowledges that “the balance of risks is shifting”, monetary policy has been too tight and the Fed needs to adjust soon. He also noted that the labor market is in a “strange state of balance”: both supply and demand are slowing, and the risk of weakening employment could come faster than expected.
Regarding inflation, Powell believes that tariffs are pushing consumer prices up but are only a temporary factor. The Fed will establish a new policy framework, learning from 5 years of high inflation to avoid tightening too much or loosening for too long.
📈 Market reaction was extremely strong: Dow Jones +900 points, S&P 500 and Nasdaq +2%. CME FedWatch shows a 90% chance the Fed will cut rates as soon as September. Crypto surged 10–12% in just a few hours.
👉 To put it bluntly: the cut rate season is approaching – crypto is getting “more fuel”. Those who hesitate may miss out on a big wave!
