BlockBeats News, February 13 — Regan Capital analyst Skyler Weinand stated that weak U.S. inflation data in January does not increase the likelihood of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates in the coming months, because earlier this week, labor market data was stronger than expected — 130,000 new jobs added in January, with an unemployment rate of 4.3%.
The Federal Reserve “currently cannot cut rates at all, after all, the economy has just created six-figure employment numbers.” Weinand expects the Senate to confirm Waller to succeed Powell as Federal Reserve Chair, but doubts whether he can build consensus on rate cuts. “This year, we may not see any changes in the Federal Reserve’s policy interest rate.”
CME FedWatch Tool shows that investors are currently pricing in at least two rate cuts this year. (Jin10)

He argues Bitcoin acts as a liquidity indicator and predicts consumer debt defaults if 20% of US knowledge workers lose jobs, resulting in significant credit losses. Hayes anticipates regional banks will face immediate pressure, leading to a credit freeze and a Fed response that could push Bitcoin to new highs. His company may also invest in altcoins Zcash and Hyperliquid when the Fed changes its policy.
