Breaking! The Federal Reserve's Interest Rate Cut Sweet Trap: After a Short-Term Carnival, Will the Crypto and US Stock Markets Suffer?

Powell's recent remarks sent two signals to the market—one was pleasant, and the other was puzzling. Breaking it down, there are two main points:

1. The "Express Train" of interest rate cuts has shifted to a slow lane.

The latest Federal Reserve dot plot has released data indicating that there may only be one interest rate cut in 2026. This is much less than what the market had anticipated. In other words, the Federal Reserve is likely to maintain the current interest rate moving forward; don’t expect any surprises. The previous fantasy of a "wave of interest rate cuts" can be temporarily shelved.

2. Short-term "liquidity injection" for emergencies.

The overnight lending market is a bit tense, and Powell has initiated a $40 billion asset purchase to inject liquidity. But it should be made clear—this is not the kind of long-term tactic associated with quantitative easing; it's merely a short-term purchase of US Treasuries, which has time limitations. This step exceeded expectations and led to a rebound in both the crypto and US stock markets.

In short, this meeting is bittersweet. A short-term rebound may occur, but how strong will its endurance be? It will depend on subsequent economic data. If there is no support for the interest rate policy, who knows how far this rally can go.
