2026 Rate Cut Dilemma: The Fed’s “Final Gamble” & a Global Liquidity Reset 🌍
Builders and markets are showing strong consensus elasticity, turning volatility into a battlefield where investors harvest volatility dividends. In high-volatility phases, consensus = wealth.
Market divergence is at extremes:
JPMorgan expects only one rate cut for the entire year.
Goldman Sachs forecasts consecutive cuts starting in March.
The core battle? Rising unemployment vs. stubborn inflation.
What makes this even more explosive is a potential global central bank reverse play: if Japan and Europe tighten while the Federal Reserve eases, capital outflows and arbitrage unwinds could deliver sharp shocks to risk assets. In this high-volatility, high-expectation macro setup, crypto is emerging as a primary reservoir for excess liquidity.
