Did you sleep last night? Anyway, the market didn't.
Silver broke through $60—this figure is not just a celebration for precious metals, but more like a global vote of confidence in real gold and silver: a distrust vote against the current monetary system. U.S. stocks kept falling, Wall Street giants were hit hard, and the VIX soared. And the root of all this points to two names: the Federal Reserve and that former president who loves to make social media statements.
The data side is already chaotic enough. Employment figures unexpectedly rebounded, and expectations of rate cuts quickly cooled; U.S. Treasuries declined, but cryptocurrencies rose against the trend; China's CPI forecast increased to 0.7%, reaching a 21-month high. But what truly keeps the market on edge is the power game behind monetary policy.
Recently, Trump publicly stated: "Rate cuts are the litmus test for the new chairman." His advisors were even more blunt— the size of the rate cut could be more than 25 basis points. This isn't just ordinary policy expectations; it's an open pressure on the transfer of monetary power. The market has never seen this kind of play.
Tonight, the Federal Reserve meeting is the real battleground. The rate cut itself is no longer in doubt; the key is how the dot plot will look and what Powell will say. Goldman Sachs's research report is very direct: beware of "hawkish rate cuts"—cutting rates to soothe the market while hinting that the easing cycle is nearing its end. More dramatically, this voting may see multiple dissenting votes, with internal divisions reaching a historic level.
Meanwhile, two messages are fermenting in the background: SpaceX news about going public, with a valuation heading straight for $1.5 trillion; Nvidia obtaining permission to sell H200 chips to China, adding another variable to the tech game.
Silver's surge may just be the beginning. Liquidity, power shifts, industry trends—three main themes are simultaneously reshaping the narrative. We are standing at a critical juncture: will the next move be continued easing or a shift to tightening? The market's answer might be more intense than anyone expects.

Silver breaking 60 feels like an appetizer, the real show is still to come
---
How Powell speaks tonight is the key; once the dot plot is released, it will probably explode
---
This game of power is played so obviously, the market can just watch the show
---
Speaking of SpaceX's IPO valuation of 1.5 trillion, does anyone really believe that number?
---
I knew the crypto reversal would cause traditional finance to crash again
---
Is rate cut a touchstone? Is Trump openly threatening or betting?
---
Internal opposition votes at a historic level, this is interesting, shark tank atmosphere
---
Silver, chips, and liquidity all exerting effort simultaneously, feels like a big event is coming
---
CPI rising to 0.7%, what is it telling us?
---
Can US debt still hold when it’s falling? That’s unscientific

Silver breaking 60 really can't hold up anymore; this liquidity chaos feels even more intense than in 2021.
Expectations for interest rate cuts keep tugging back and forth; I really didn't expect the hawkish rate cuts to be played this way.
As soon as the news of SpaceX going public broke, I knew big funds would need to reallocate; the combination of tech and precious metals is too attractive.
How the Federal Reserve comments tonight will determine next week's market direction; the dot plot will reveal the truth.
The game of power is ultimately a game of funds, but this time it's different from before.
Silver's rally is not the end, just the beginning.

The silver break above 60 feels like the final frenzy before big capital runs away...
Hawkish rate cuts are the real killer move; the market simply can't react in time.
Trump's move is indeed outrageous; I've never seen such public pressure on the Federal Reserve.
Forget it, I won't sleep. I'll keep an eye on the market until the Federal Reserve meeting ends.
Spacex going public? I really can't understand this valuation, brother.
Rate cuts are just a temporary measure; tightening is more likely.
Three main trends moving simultaneously, this time it really might blow up.

Hawkish rate cuts? That's funny... Cutting rates while hinting at tightening, can the market not be nervous?
---
Silver breaking 60 is just hinting at something, really losing confidence in the dollar.
---
Trump's recent pressure is a bit harsh; Powell must be feeling pretty uncomfortable tonight.
---
Instead of guessing how much they will cut, it’s better to watch how the dot plot tears apart... Can this opposition vote break records this time?
---
Rumors of SpaceX going public and Nvidia chip licensing, the tech chess game is getting more and more complicated.
---
Liquidity, power, and industry—these three lines—feels like the critical point is just a couple of days away.
---
Why sleep? Watching the market is the right way... Can silver’s recent surge continue?
---
At this pace, there might really be major changes in the second half of the year; being cautious is the right choice.
---
Hawkish rate cuts—what a slick move... Is it just fooling retail investors?
---
China's CPI hits a new high; global funds are rebalancing. It feels like a big event hasn't fully unfolded yet.
