Yo,
Heard the whispers about a possible Fed rate cut in September. Will the ToolatePowell really cut the rate? Is this actually happening, or is the market just jonesing for a dopamine hit?
If it does drop:
Crypto: Bullish short-term (obviously), but what’s the catch? Last time cuts came with "soft landing" FUD. Is Bitcoin just a risk-on asset now, or can it dodge the recession bullet?
Everyone’s screaming "MORE LIQUIDITY = MOON," but hold up-rate cuts is not equal printing presses rolling 24/7. Is this just the start of stealth QE? Or will they actually start monetizing debt again? (Looking at you, U.S. deficit.)
I’m not buying the "this time is different" narrative. If they cut because the economy’s cracking, crypto might get dumped with stocks. If it’s "confidence" cuts… well, we all know how that ended in 2021.
This feels like the calm before either a pump or a dump. But if the Fed flips to full money-printer mode to cover the debt ceiling circus… yeah, we’re in for chaos.
What’s your opinion? Am I paranoid, or is this the setup for "QE infinity"? Or am I missing something obvious?
Not financial advice. Just a degen losing sleep over Fed memos.
