😐 Black Swan for Crypto: The Fed is Losing Control Over Rates - Is This the Final Dump, Will They Print Liquidity and Markets Fly Up, or Will This Be the Start of a Bear Market After the Rise, or Is It Just FUD?
⚫ On September 17, the Fed is 90% likely to cut rates by 25 basis points, the market is expecting a 50 b.p. cut in 2025. However, the yield on 30-year Treasury bonds is approaching 5% — levels not seen since the 2008 financial crisis. Interest rates are rising ahead of their reduction by the central bank.
⚫ The U.S. has issued $200 billion in bonds in just 5 weeks due to financing deficits. Investors no longer want to buy U.S. government debt at current yields, and the Fed is losing control over interest rates.
⚫ Core inflation in the U.S. has exceeded 3% and continues to rise. At this inflation rate, the dollar will lose 25% of its purchasing power over 10 years, having already lost 25% since 2020.
🧷 The Bank of England has cut rates 5 times in 12 months, but the yield on 30-year UK bonds has surpassed 5.7% — the highest since 1998. In Japan, the yield on 30-year government bonds is above 3.2%, which is 30 times higher than levels in 2019. Gold is rising in correlation with rising yields, foreshadowing a global financing deficit crisis.
