🔥 FOMC SEPTEMBER: RATE HIKE OR THE START OF A NEW CYCLE?

The Fed is back in the spotlight, and this FOMC meeting could set the tone for $BTC , tech stocks and gold.

🇺🇸 August CPI came in hot: Headline CPI rose 0.4% MoM and 3.4% YoY, while core CPI increased 0.3% MoM and 2.4% YoY. Inflation remains above the Fed’s 2% goal.

Markets are now heavily leaning toward a 25bp rate hike at the September 15–16 FOMC meeting, with the expected target range moving toward 3.75%–4.00%. Reuters reported that 85% of surveyed economists expected the hike, while market pricing was around 90%.

But the BIG question isn't just the hike:

👉 Is this a one-off adjustment, or the beginning of a prolonged tightening cycle?

📊 Asset Class Impact

BTC: Short-term volatility could increase as yields and the dollar strengthen. But if the Fed delivers a less-hawkish message, BTC could see a sharp relief rally.

📉 Tech Stocks: Higher rates increase pressure on high-valuation growth stocks because future earnings become less attractive when discounted at higher rates.

🥇 Gold: Higher yields and a stronger dollar are potential headwinds for gold, although geopolitical and inflation risks can provide support.

🎯 My Trading Strategy

I'm watching BTC price action + U.S. 10Y Treasury yields + DXY rather than blindly trading the first announcement candle.

⚠️ Rule #1: Don't gamble on the volatility spike. Wait for confirmation.

For me, the real market-moving event may not be the 25bp decision itself, but the Fed's forward guidance on what comes next.

The question is simple:

🔴 Hawkish Fed?
🟢 Dovish surprise?

What are you expecting from the Fed?
