🚨 Fed day: my watchlist connects Wall Street and crypto.
I’m Gastón—an everyday worker building a portfolio from my paycheck and documenting what I learn.
Here’s what I’m watching today, September 16. 👇
📌 What’s happening?
The Fed’s September 15–16 meeting concludes today, with updated economic projections scheduled. That makes the outlook for rates and inflation a key focus. "Source: Federal Reserve" (https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/fomccalendars.htm)
📊 The market snapshot
Barron’s premarket report showed S&P 500 futures up 0.24%, Bitcoin around $75,853 and the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield at 4.975%. These are premarket readings, not closing prices.

🔎 Why it matters
My takeaway: the decision matters, but so does how it changes expectations for the next few meetings. I’m watching whether bonds, equities and crypto confirm the same message.
What’s on my radar:
• $BNB: relative strength against $BTC, spot volume and whether BNB Chain activity supports the price action.
• $BTC and $ETH: whether post-announcement moves attract sustained spot demand.
• S&P 500, Nvidia ($NVDA) and Micron ($MU): how equities respond to changes in yields.
• Strategy ($MSTR): its performance relative to Bitcoin.
⚠️ Thesis check
A first move can reverse. A rally without sustained demand would weaken my confidence in it.
I’ll be sharing market news and my analysis across traditional markets and crypto, with a special focus on BNB alongside BTC, ETH, SOL and XRP.
Follow along as I build, study and connect the dots.
Which will you watch first after the Fed: BNB, Bitcoin or the S&P 500?
