The final trading week of January 2026 is forecast to be a super volatility week as investors face the power triad: FED interest rate decision, GDP growth data, and PCE inflation. These variables will shape financial and Crypto market trends for Q1.
🔸 All eyes are on the Fed. Amid rising public debt pressure and gold( $XAU ) breaking the $5,000 peak, the market expects the Fed to signal a clear monetary easing path. Will the Fed hold rates to curb inflation or be forced to cut to save government interest costs? A hawkish tone could pressure risk assets.
🔸 Preliminary Gross Domestic Product (GDP) figures will reveal the true health of the US economy. If GDP growth slows or dips into negative territory, recession fears will trigger even stronger safe haven flows into Gold and Bitcoin.
🔸 The Fed preferred inflation gauge will be released at the end of the week. Any heating up of inflation will complicate the Fed policy puzzle and could cause sudden liquidity sweeps in the Crypto market.
🔸 A series of tech giants are expected to report revenue this week. Their business results will directly impact the Nasdaq index and have a high correlation with Bitcoin shortterm volatility.
Facing a week full of potential macro shocks from interest rates to recession, is your portfolio sufficiently hedged, or are you choosing to sit on the sidelines?
