I was wrong about the Fed. Here's what changed my mind. đ€
Last week I was 100% sure the Fed would hold. Then the jobs report dropped â 162K vs 55K expected. That's not a small beat. That's the labor market telling the Fed: "we're not slowing down."
So now I'm sitting here asking myself one question: if the job market is this strong, why would the Fed cut?
They won't. And if CPI comes in hot on Friday, they might not just hold â they might hike.
Here's my honest position: I'm bullish on gold, still holding my XAU. Not because I'm scared, but because central banks keep buying (288.9 tonnes last quarter alone), and gold doesn't care who wins the hike-or-hold debate. Meanwhile, I'm cautious on stocks â a hot CPI print could wipe out this rally fast.
So I'm not predicting. I'm preparing. NFP told us the Fed has room. CPI will tell us if they use it.
