🇺🇸 FED FOMC MEETING SUMMARY (12/10)
➡️ The Fed cut interest rates by 0.25%, bringing them down to 3.5–3.75%.
➡️ They now think rates are in a “normal” or neutral zone, neither boosting nor slowing the economy too much.
➡️ Inflation is still a bit high, and prices of goods are rising again.
➡️ The Fed expects the economy to grow faster in 2026 than previously thought.
➡️Job market risks are increasing, meaning employment could weaken.
➡️ Recent data shows inflation heating up again, mainly from goods.
➡️ Three members disagreed:
👉 Schmid and Goolsbee wanted no rate cut
👉 Miran wanted a bigger 0.50% cut
➡️ The Fed will start buying Treasury bills again on Dec 12 — about $40B over the next month , which slightly expands its balance sheet.
The Fed said this rate cut is for risk management, not the start of a long series of cuts.

Washington (Estados Unidos) (AFP) – El presidente estadounidense, Donald Trump, anunció el lunes que emitirá un decreto para quitar a los estados el derecho a regular la creciente industria de la inteligencia artificial, ya que a su juicio es prerrogativa del gobierno federal.
"Debe haber un único manual si queremos seguir liderando en inteligencia artificial" en todo el mundo, publicó Trump en su red Truth Social.
Los esfuerzos de Trump para controlar el desarrollo de la inteligencia artificial (IA) enfrentan una intensa oposición política y legal.
Estados Unidos quiere mantener el liderazgo en ese terreno, por razones de seguridad nacional, frente a China en particular, y también porque la IA representa en la actualidad uno de los mayores vectores de inversión en el país.
Sin embargo, la Casa Blanca se enfrenta a un profundo escepticismo en el Congreso, donde muchos demócratas y algunos miembros de su propio Partido Republicano desconfían de los posibles daños económicos y sociales de la tecnología.
"Estamos superando a TODOS LOS PAÍSES en este momento en la carrera, pero eso no durará mucho si vamos a tener 50 Estados, muchos de ellos actores negativos, involucrados en las REGLAS y el PROCESO DE APROBACIÓN", escribió Trump en su publicación.
"¡NO PUEDE HABER DUDA SOBRE ESTO! ¡LA IA SERÁ DESTRUIDA EN SU INFANCIA! Estaré emitiendo una Orden Ejecutiva de UNA REGLA (para todo el país, ndlr) esta semana", advirtió.
Los sondeos indican que la preocupación sobre el impacto de la IA en el mercado laboral está creciendo, en especial entre los jóvenes, que temen que las oportunidades de trabajo vayan a reducirse.
Trump habría creado ya un grupo de trabajo en la Casa Blanca dedicado a denunciar ante la justicia las leyes estatales sobre IA, según un borrador de esa orden presidencial revelado el mes pasado por el sitio web The Hill.
Ante las restricciones de algunos estados, Trump estudia limitarles el acceso a fondos federales para desarrollar el acceso a internet de banda ancha.
"La regulación estatal de la inteligencia artificial detendría esta industria y crearía un problema de seguridad nacional, ya que necesitamos asegurarnos de que Estados Unidos avance en la tecnología de inteligencia artificial lo más rápido posible", dijo Huang a periodistas durante una audiencia en el Congreso estadounidense la semana pasada.
Los líderes de la industria se quejan de que hay más de 1.000 proyectos de ley sobre la IA actualmente en los Congresos estatales.

The logic behind the Fed's rate cut: The basic framework is actually not that complicated

The Fed's monetary policy decisions are always based on the US domestic market. Its main objectives are only two: to ensure full employment and maintain price stability. All considerations revolve around the fundamentals of the domestic economy, regardless of the operation of other global markets, and it is impossible for it to release liquidity to bail out the housing markets of other countries.

At present, US inflation has not yet fallen to the 2% policy target line, and the pressure of high inflation has not completely disappeared. This means that the basic premise of the rate cut is fundamentally wrong. At the same time, the US economy has shown considerable resilience, and the demand in the labor market is strong. The problem is not a lack of job supply, but a difference in the willingness of some workers to work. This gives the Fed enough confidence to maintain high interest rates to combat inflation. Even if the rate cut encourages companies to increase productivity and employment, it will still be difficult to effectively incentivize these workers to return to the market, which will significantly reduce the actual policy effectiveness of the rate cut.

The main reason why the US dollar has maintained its position as the world's primary reserve currency is its stable store of value. Prolonged inflation directly erodes the purchasing power of the dollar. It is worth noting that even before the Federal Reserve began to cut interest rates, the RMB had already begun to appreciate, and RMB assets collectively strengthened. This is clearly a situation that the Fed does not want to see, because the foundation of the dollar's supremacy must not be shaken.

Here, we also need to pay attention to the key indicator of the real interest rate, which is calculated as the nominal interest rate minus the inflation rate. If the Fed keeps the nominal interest rate unchanged while inflation continues to decline, real interest rates will passively rise, which is tantamount to tightening monetary policy. Therefore, once inflation data confirms a sustained decline, the Fed will likely initiate a symbolic interest rate cut. This is essentially a technical policy adjustment, the main purpose of which is to stabilize real interest rates and avoid passive tightening.

The Fed’s ultimate policy objective is to guide interest rates to a neutral level that neither stimulates nor inhibits the economy, but there is no universal consensus on the specific value of the neutral interest rate. From a policy signal perspective, the initiation of interest rate cuts indicates that the Fed is moving from a pronounced tightening cycle to an exploration phase of the neutral interest rate range. This is by no means a blind stimulus to the economy, but rather a mere policy shift toward neutral regulation.

In practical terms, for traders, the current market turmoil and the significant divergence between bulls and bears actually present more trading opportunities. If the market agrees with bullish or bearish expectations, the range of price fluctuations will be significantly reduced, and the difficulty of making profits from option instruments will increase significantly. Only in the game of divergence do real trading opportunities lie hidden.#BinanceBlockchainWeek #USACryptoTrends

Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, positioning the United States as a leader among nations in government digital asset strategy.
The Reserve will be capitalized with Bitcoin owned by the federal government that was forfeited as part of criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceedings. This means it will not cost taxpayers a dime.
It is estimated that the U.S. government owns about 200,000 $BTC ; however, there has never been a complete audit. The E.O. directs a full accounting of the federal government’s digital asset holdings.

The U.S. will not sell any bitcoin deposited into the Reserve. It will be kept as a store of value. The Reserve is like a digital Fort Knox for the cryptocurrency often called “digital gold.”

Premature sales of bitcoin have already cost U.S. taxpayers over $17 billion in lost value. Now the federal government will have a strategy to maximize the value of its holdings.
The Secretaries of Treasury and Commerce are authorized to develop budget-neutral strategies for acquiring additional bitcoin, provided that those strategies have no incremental costs on American taxpayers.
IN ADDITION, the Executive Order establishes a U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, consisting of digital assets other than bitcoin forfeited in criminal or civil proceedings.
The government will not acquire additional assets for the Stockpile beyond those obtained through forfeiture proceedings.
The purpose of the Stockpile is responsible stewardship of the government’s digital assets under the Treasury Department.

PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT
President Trump promised to create a Strategic $BTC Reserve and Digital Asset Stockpile. Those promises have been kept.

This Executive Order underscores President Trump’s commitment to making the U.S. the “crypto capital of the world.”
