the Fed left interest rates where they were, but the way they put it made the market think there is still room for more tightening. I would call this a psychological jolt rather than a simple rate decision. The Fed’s tone was firmer and the message was clear: don’t expect soft support and guidance to last. With that in mind, you can see why the dollar and bond yields are holding their ground and risk assets are feeling the squeeze, crypto in particular. Bitcoin and Ethereum are taking the brunt of it since they are so dependent on risk appetite and liquidity. Tech stocks might weather it for now on the back of the AI story, but only in the short term. If I had to pick five to keep an eye on, they are $BTC, $ETH, $SOL, $MSTR and $NVDA. The first three are being hammered by liquidation and a lack of liquidity; $MSTR is your proxy for Bitcoin. Then there is $NVDA – if the market has to make a choice between AI hype and fear of rates, that stock will tell you where the real risk appetite lies. All told, while the Fed has the rates in the 3.50 to 3.75 per cent range, the dot plot is pointing to a hike in 2026. #FedHikeReignites #TrumpIran60DayClock #OKXBeautifulGame
