#FedRateWatch FOMC September: Whatâs The Fed Cooking? đ
August core CPI came in hot at 0.3% MoM â inflation clearly isnât going away quietly. No surprise the market is now heavily leaning toward a 25bp rate hike this week.
But honestly, the bigger question for me isnât just the hike. Itâs what comes next and what the Dot Plot reveals.
Is this just a one-off move to keep inflation under control, or are we looking at the start of a longer hiking cycle?
If the hike lands, BTC could get some short-term heat, especially if the Fed sounds more hawkish than expected. Tech stocks might take a hit too, as higher yields usually suck liquidity out of growth plays.
Gold is a bit more interesting. Higher rates can put pressure on it, but if the market sees this as a limited move, gold could still find buyers.
As for my own plan, Iâm not chasing the first spike. Fed events can get crazy fast đ. Iâd rather let the initial volatility settle and then look for a cleaner BTC setup.
One hike or the beginning of something bigger? Whatâs your take?
