[Market Turmoil] The Federal Reserve's policy script suddenly reverses
Everyone, the Federal Reserve's tough stance has been directly pierced by a piece of data. Just after the Fed officials declared that "the rate hike cycle has ended, but there is no prospect for rate cuts," the revised non-farm payroll report dealt a heavy blow to the market:
📉 The data details are a bit heartbreaking:
· Employment growth suddenly turned negative in August, with a net loss of 26,000. · The number of new jobs added in September was cut from the expected 150,000 to 108,000. · Wall Street's trust in the official initial value has fallen to a historic low.
💥 Market sentiment has reversed:
The probability of interest rate cuts has soared instantly. The original expectation of "no rate cuts for the whole year" has changed to "at least two rate cuts next year, possibly starting in January." The US dollar index has fallen below 98, and global asset prices are facing repricing.
🔥 The Fed's awkward situation:
· Choose to cut interest rates → Hardline stance collapses, inflation risk rebounds · Refusing to cut interest rates → Clear signal of economic recession, worsening unemployment · Worse still, the subsequent CPI data is about to be released. If inflation remains high, the entire policy framework will be trapped in a "no matter how you choose, it's wrong" deadlock.
⚠️ Changes in the geopolitical landscape
A weakening economy means rising political pressure, which could shake the Federal Reserve's independent decision-making space. This situation may not necessarily be a bad thing for certain political figures.
🌊 Fluctuation is the main theme.
Data chaos, policy confidence shaken, multiple parties competing; the market will enter a high volatility phase. Don't forget that old saying: when the storm subsides, those who were least prepared are the first to be revealed.
The ETH trend is worth continuous attention, and one should avoid blindly chasing the market during the revaluation period.

The Fed's recent actions are truly amazing, it's like they are slapping themselves in the face. Now the bloodbath in the crypto world depends on the pace of interest rate cuts.
