2026 FOMC Key Meeting: Will the 125 Basis Point Rate Cut Expectation Materialize?
Next Monday and Tuesday (January 27-28), the Federal Reserve will hold its first policy meeting of the year. The market is waiting in extreme uncertainty—will the rumored aggressive 125 basis point rate cut for the year come true?
The dilemma is clear. On one side, there is the ongoing wave of layoffs and the pressure from inflated economic data; on the other, there are concerns about a rebound in inflation. Powell faces a choice: either hold steady, risking a hard landing; or aggressively loosen policy, betting that inflation won't resurface. Signals from the White House, along with fierce clashes between hawks and doves, make the decision at 3 a.m. Beijing time on January 29 full of suspense.
In this macro puzzle, smart money is moving away from traditional safe havens and into crypto assets supported by real consensus. The short-term liquidity game is reshaping market positioning.
Do you think Powell will choose to rescue the market or maintain stability? Just give your judgment 👇

Whether Powell will save the market depends on inflation data; don't listen to the White House's narrative.

Powell will definitely compromise; no one can afford a hard landing.

If Powell really dares to cut by 125 basis points, I would go all in, but he won't, it's clear that the policy space isn't that big at all.

Powell definitely has to loosen monetary policy, or the market will crash directly, right? By the way, if these 125 basis points really materialize, BTC will have to take off.
