HTX DeepThink: Federal Reserve Board Governor Nomination Triggers Policy Game Theory, Multiple Key Data Tests Cryptocurrency Market

5 hours ago

On August 11th, the HTX Researcher Chloe pointed out that Trump nominated his long-term economic advisor, Stephen Moore, to serve as a member of the Federal Reserve Board. This strengthened the market's expectations for the Fed's future loose monetary policy. Moore advocates for rate cuts, which is in contrast to Powell's cautious stance and has driven the recent rebound of risk assets such as Bitcoin. This week, the market is focusing on three key data points: July CPI, PPI, and retail sales. If the inflation data is higher than expected, investors may reduce their rate cut bets, leading to a stronger dollar and pressure on the crypto market. If retail sales are weak, it will support the expectation of a rate cut in September and be favorable for the continued rise of risk assets. In addition, in terms of geopolitics, Trump and Putin will meet in Alaska on August 15th to discuss Ukraine and bilateral relations, which may affect market risk appetite. Overall, this week the crypto market may be data-driven, with heightened emotional fluctuations. In a situation where inflation is moderate and retail sales are weak, Bitcoin is expected to target $126,000. If inflation heats up, caution is needed for a pullback to the $116,000 - $118,000 range.
