ChainCatcher News reports that the Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 0.25% as expected (3 votes against), and Powell confirmed a pause after one more rate cut in 2026. The market is beginning to digest the dovish remarks of the new chairman candidate Kevin Hassett (he mentioned the possibility of more than 3 rate cuts). At the same time, the Federal Reserve announced a monthly repurchase of approximately $40 billion in short-term government bonds, which lowers real interest rates and provides liquidity, mildly benefiting stocks, metals, and cryptocurrencies.
Compared to the US dollar, major currencies like the euro and yen are showing hawkish narratives. The German 30-year government bond yield hit a new high, attracting capital inflows into European assets. Precious metals surged strongly: gold broke through $4,300, silver hit a record high, and platinum and palladium also reached mid-term new highs.
Bitcoin traded within a narrow range of $92,000-$93,000, attempting to find demand after large ETF outflows. Bloomberg experts say hedge funds are preparing for a rebound. The DAX index has been forming a large consolidation pattern since June 2025, with a potential breakout; the Hang Seng Index is consolidating above the 200-day moving average, possibly testing the $24,500 support zone before reversing.
