🚨 BREAKING: Powell FOMC Speech Out — Here’s the Translation & What’s Coming Next 📉📉 As expected, Powell came with a hawkish-neutral tone. This is why I kept saying the rate cut headline itself doesn’t matter much anymore — the tone does. And today the tone was clear: no rush to cut, no hurry to ease, and no promises. Inflation is cooling, but not enough for the Fed to feel safe. The real message is simple. The Fed wants more proof. Until inflation and jobs data clearly weaken, policy stays tight in practice, even if rates are unchanged. That quietly delays the easy-money narrative the market keeps hoping for. Powell also kept repeating that decisions are based on data and mandate. No politics, no names. But between the lines, it’s a reminder that the Fed is not going to bend because markets or anyone else wants faster cuts. 👉 So what’s next? Expect a slow, messy path. Good data can pump risk assets for a while. Bad data can dump them just as fast. No clean trend yet. For $BTC , this tone points to short-term chop, not a smooth breakout. The $84k–$85k area is now open as a likely zone, while real upside needs macro confirmation, not just hope. Translation: no free-money phase, no fast pivot, and no straight line up. Stay sharp.
