BREAKING: Federal Reserve President Closes Door to Rate Cuts in Q1 2026
WASHINGTON D.C.: In an unexpected turn during his latest appearance, the President of the Federal Reserve (FED) has maintained a decidedly hawkish tone, cooling the expectations of Wall Street analysts and, by extension, the crypto market.
The official indicated that, despite the recent slowdown in inflation, the strength of the labor market and the current GDP growth (validated by the recent rise of $BTC to $92,300) justify maintaining the current interest rate during the first quarter of 2026.
Implication for Crypto: This announcement directly impacts liquidity. While high rates traditionally dampen investment in risk assets, BTC's resilience suggests that institutional capital now sees it as an inflation hedge despite the rates. The lack of rate cuts may limit the final push towards $100,000 in the short term, favoring a lateral consolidation.
💡 Extreme vigilance on the reaction of Treasury bonds when Wall Street opens. Risk appetite will determine whether $92,300 is a support or a temporary ceiling.
