๐Ÿ“Š Fed Holds, GDP Beats, Inflation Still Rising: A Hawkish Message for $BTC ๐Ÿ›๏ธ
The Fed held rates at 3.75-4% on Oct 28, but the vote was 10-2, with two officials voting for a hike right away. Warsh said inflation is still elevated, gave no forward guidance, and kept December open ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Thursdayโ€™s data confirmed the picture ๐Ÿ“ˆ
โ€ข Q3 GDP: 3.4% (forecast 3.2%, previous 2.2%)
โ€ข September PCE: 3.6% YoY. Core PCE: 3.1% YoY, up from 3.0%
Both were close to forecasts, but strong growth plus rising inflation gives the Fed no reason to cut and a reason to hike. The market now prices roughly an 80-87% chance of a hike in December โš ๏ธ With the 10-year yield near 5%, that is a headwind for $BTC , $ETH and risk assets.
The reaction has been calm so far: BTC held the $80-81K area because the hawkish hold was mostly priced in. The risk is the next hot data point or an oil spike pushing yields higher ๐Ÿ›ข๏ธ
