#美联储启动新一轮降息周期 $ETH Price Outlook: Uncovering the Truth Behind the Federal Reserve's Rate Cut



During the early hours, the Federal Reserve's decision had everyone eager to act. But here’s the question—everyone's cheering for a "rate cut," yet no one notices a hidden label on this cut: "Hawkish."

Sounds contradictory? But that's the key. Plainly put: the Fed did cut rates, but at the same time, it’s implying "that’s all for now." The market's reaction is like a conditioned reflex—once hearing "rate cut," it starts expecting unlimited easing, skipping over the second part: "for now."

JPMorgan has already announced—Powell will emphasize that only a "significant deterioration" in the employment market would lead to further easing. That's essentially closing the door labeled "continuous easing." The steady stream of liquidity you expect might just come to an end.

Here’s the point: when the market forms a consensus around a certain term, like "rate cut," it’s often the riskiest moment. This time is no different. Everyone's positions are built on the expectation of "rate cut → market uptrend." The real variables are hidden in the details—policy language, employment data, and future guidance.

From another angle, this isn’t just a rate decision; it's a psychological game. It’s no surprise if expectations are dashed or pessimism reversed. The key is whether you can maintain your judgment amid the wave of market sentiment.

Whether prices can continue rising along the previous high largely depends on how the market’s expectation for a "second rate cut" recovers after this decision. Short-term volatility is expected to be intense; position management is more important than direction prediction. Keep a close eye on subsequent employment data and officials’ statements—that's the real source of signals.

The hawkish rate cut policy, to put it simply, is "giving you candy but only one piece." The market is now like a child who has never tasted candy, getting excited just from hearing the first half. The real test lies in the employment data, and that's when we'll see who is swimming naked.

On-chain data shows that this market reaction is indeed at a reflex level... The contrast of hawkish rate cuts has been coded in early, and it just depends on who can understand this logic. Position management is always > directional judgment; I've heard this phrase many times from contracts that end up getting proven wrong.

The logic is sound, but I saw through this hawkish rate cut early on. I'm just waiting for the market to react and get爆破 at the moment.

Wake up, hawkish rate cuts are just a scam, I'm about to be caught again Missed the boat again, I went to sleep last night and didn't buy the dip Powell says one thing and does another, all my fault for trusting JPMorgan's nonsense Damn it, it's always one-sided expectations, my position... let's not ask now There's a devil in the details, but I, as a rookie, can't understand it Wait, can employment data still save the market before the announcement, please It’s really real, I can't rely on a second round of rate cuts anymore, I’ve taken a huge loss Luckily I didn't go all-in, otherwise I would have definitely been liquidated today As soon as I hear about rate cuts, I jump in, my brain is really useless, no wonder the stock hit the limit down Didn't even check on-chain data, just blindly bought ETH, I've learned my lesson this time

The Federal Reserve is really playing word games this time. The rate cut is a genuine cut, but the hawkish tone is also quite strong. The problem is retail investors only see the first half of the sentence. --- It's hilarious, another carefully crafted "expectation trap" set by the big players. Everyone is betting on a second round, but they haven't even decided what will happen in the second round. --- Damn, the key issue now isn't the rate cut itself, but when the market can wake up from the "unlimited easing" dream. That’s the real game changer. --- Seeing this consensus, I get timid. Too many people are betting in the same direction, so someone is bound to get caught. It all depends on who reacts fastest. --- $ETH maintaining its previous high is really not easy; we’ll have to see how the employment data guy responds. The technicals have already collapsed, now it’s all about emotional support. --- Basically, it’s a psychological battle. Powell is hinting "there’s no future guidance," but retail investors are still dreaming of unlimited easing. This difference in perception is an opportunity for wealth transfer. --- Risk control is more important than prediction. That’s how I see it: keep your positions lighter, wait until signals are clearer before adding. Chasing high now just means handing over your money to others.
