This morning’s market action feels a little surreal: the Middle East is ablaze, while $BTC is quietly climbing toward 84,000.
First, a quick macro rundown: Six ships have been attacked in the Strait of Hormuz over two days, and Iran’s Revolutionary Guard has threatened to sink any U.S. warships that come too close. Brent has been pushed back above $106, and even Goolsbee is starting to worry that tariffs and higher oil prices could push the U.S. into stagflation.
The Fed’s stance is even more nuanced: Williams said there could be one more rate hike this year, but none in 2027. After this half-hawkish, half-dovish statement, $BTC headed toward 84K, while $ZEC led the major coins higher. Markets are contrarian like that: you worry about inflation, and they bet on liquidity.
But tonight’s U.S. September CPI is the real test. How a December rate hike is priced in will depend entirely on this data. Don’t get carried away before the numbers come out; leave some room in your positions.
One long-term note: $AVAX is benefiting from developments in South Korea. The country’s Financial Services Commission has laid out a roadmap for tokenized stocks and bonds, with the first phase set to launch in February 2027. The Korea Securities Depository is building the infrastructure on Avalanche. Asia is putting real money behind the RWA narrative.
My take: If oil at $106 hasn’t stopped $BTC from rising, that shows buying demand is stronger than expected. But volatility will only increase before CPI comes out, so there’s no shame in watching more and trading less.
