Before the FOMC, my three rules: no additional buys, no bottom-catching, and keep some cash on the sidelines
This week, CPI and PPI both beat expectations consecutively, and market bets on further rate hikes are heating up. The FOMC will meet next Tuesday and Wednesday, with the decision released the early hours of 9/17 Beijing time.
My view: There’s a good chance of no rate hike in September, but if Powell plays tough with his rhetoric even once, risk assets will likely shake again.
At a time like this, staying alive to see the answer matters more than guessing the direction correctly. I set three rules for myself and I’m sharing them with you:
First, don’t add to positions or try to catch the bottom before the decision is out. The market will give the answer first—there’s no need to wager real money.
Second, go through the safety audit checklist for the projects you’re holding again. The attack intensity this month shows: markets can wait, but code can’t.
Third, a weak market is a window to refine your tools. Demand for things like on-chain monitoring and anomaly alerting is increasing, and that’s why I’ve been sticking with building security-focused products at FuturaKey.
Lastly, a blunt truth: the market lacks opportunities, not them. What it lacks is people who still have bullets when opportunities arrive.
How much of your portfolio are you currently in? Let’s chat in the comments.
