Don't remind me again today

Recently, there has been increasing chatter from the White House regarding the next Fed chair, with Kevin Hassett's name being frequently mentioned. The market has always been sensitive to such cues—his views on interest rate cuts align well with Trump, which has led many to start betting that there may be a shift in policy direction.



To be honest, the significance of the Fed chair position goes without saying; it directly determines how interest rates are adjusted. If a more dovish figure were to take over, this tightening pace would likely be loosened. You can see that U.S. Treasury yields have already begun to decline; the market has actually been pricing this in ahead of time.

What does this mean for digital assets? It mainly depends on how policy expectations are transmitted: on one hand, if the policy shifts towards easing, the overall liquidity environment will improve, which is beneficial for risk assets; on the other hand, during the transition period, various messages are flying around, market sentiment can easily become tense, and volatility may increase; but ultimately, what really matters is the subsequent economic data and the actual implementation of policies.

My personal suggestion is to stay attentive but not too aggressive. Personnel appointments are quite variable and the process is lengthy, so going all in on a particular direction right now is a bit risky. It would be better to focus on hard indicators like inflation and employment data, manage your positions well, and not make significant adjustments based on a single piece of news.

The market will ultimately return to fundamentals in the long run. At this stage, patiently observing and responding rationally may be more reliable than chasing trends.

If Hassett takes office, the interest rate cut is almost certain, and with loosened Liquidity, we will have a chance.

The probability of Hasset coming to power and lowering interest rates is really high, but the all-in risk is too great right now.

Hasset takes office? It's time to play the policy Arbitrage game again, so annoying.

Will Hasset really lower interest rates? I think it's uncertain. It sounds nice to say it's a dovish stance, but it actually depends on whether the economic data holds up.

The personnel reshuffling has started again; it sounds nice, but isn't it just a gamble on whether the policies will loosen or not?

If Hassett takes office, can it really ease the tightening pace? Why do I feel like it's just the market hyping itself up... Wait, improving liquidity is favorable information for the crypto world, but how long can this rebound last? I hope it's not just another V-shaped rebound followed by a sell with bearish market. To put it bluntly, whoever becomes the chairman will have to rely on economic data, and going all in to bet on policies right now seems a bit too naive. It sounds rational, but I still feel like this situation might not be that simple; there are too many variables in the news. The drop in U.S. Treasury yields is indeed interesting, but we really need to see how the upcoming inflation data plays out; making big moves now could easily lead to being played for suckers. Forget it, let's wait until the policies are truly implemented before making any decisions; we shouldn't get trapped. Instead of chasing this news, it might be better to look for undervalued promising crypto; real opportunities often lie in places that everyone else overlooks. Do you feel like this time is really different? Bro, I thought the same last year, and now I'm still cutting losses...
