#美联储降息 US stocks faced pressure on Friday, with technology stocks leading the decline—Nasdaq down 1.5%, S&P 500 down 0.9%, and risk aversion pushing gold prices up to $4,300 per ounce.



More importantly, the latest Federal Reserve decision. For the third consecutive time, the Fed cut interest rates—this time by 25 basis points, bringing the target range to 3.50%-3.75%. Starting from December 12, the Fed will also purchase $40 billion worth of Treasury securities over 30 days to maintain liquidity.

However, the current President has spoken out—arguing that the rate cut was not aggressive enough, and could have been more radical, at least doubling the size. This suggests there may still be uncertainties in policy direction.

For mainstream assets like $BTC, $ETH, and $SOL, expectations of easing are usually positive signals, but short-term volatility depends on how the market digests this conflicting message: on one hand, the Fed is cutting rates; on the other, the magnitude is considered insufficiently aggressive. Liquidity conditions are improving, but differences in pace and scale may continue to disturb the market.
BTC-2.05%
ETH-3.67%
SOL-3.73%

The rate cut is not aggressive enough, the President's words make me feel comfortable --- So is a rate cut a good thing or is policy uncertainty more important? This round of market is a bit tense --- 400 billion treasury bonds maintain liquidity, it feels like a patch, the real medicine still depends on follow-up actions --- Gold surged to 4300, it's the same old story... the key is when the crypto market will take off --- Contradictory signals are the biggest signals; short-term continued impatience, anyway holding positions steady --- 25 basis points tickle, I already said that the Fed won't be aggressive enough this time, mainly watch what happens after December --- Expectations of easing are positive, but how did this positive turn into tech stocks leading the decline... too surreal

This is a典型的 supply line being broken signal—The Federal Reserve is cutting interest rates, but the president says it's not enough, and the market starts to contradict itself. In the short term, we still need to continue defending; 25 basis points are far from enough to fill this gap.

It's the same old story, not enough aggressive rate cuts? Then just don't cut at all, since no one is happy when prices fall anyway. Are you guys looking for easing or stimulation? Think it through before you speak. BTC can only rise amidst conflicting signals like this, just wait and see—history will repeat itself anyway. Liquidity improvement is a joke; with such huge policy uncertainties, who dares to go all in... The way US stocks are falling, even gold is laughing. My portfolio is also suffering because of it.

Is cutting interest rates still not aggressive enough? These people really dare to say so, now they are starting internal conflicts Wait, is this implying more easing? My BTC is saved? What's the use of obsessing over these details, the key is where the liquidity will flow, just follow closely Gold has risen to 4300? Looks like it's really a safe haven now, the market is still panicking Cutting rates ineffectively is worse than not cutting at all, dragging on only makes the crypto market more jittery, what are we gambling on Mainstream coins need to be shaken up in the short term, when will these conflicting signals ever be clarified Policy conflicts, retail investors lose out, I've seen this trick many times Wait until the liquidity is truly released, for now these signals are too chaotic

25bp really feels a bit perfunctory, like patching a known vulnerability with only a security fix rather than a complete cure, the problem still remains.
