Don't remind me again today

On December 1st at midnight, there was a move that might hide an important signal—the Fed suddenly operated a $13.5 billion overnight repurchase.



What does this number mean? Looking back at historical records, this is the highest single-day operation amount since the liquidity crisis after the pandemic in 2020, and the intensity is even stronger than the market rescue during the internet bubble in 2000.

Many people don't quite understand what "overnight repurchase" really does. Simply put, it means that financial institutions use government bonds as collateral to temporarily exchange for some cash from the central bank—sounds quite technical, but the message conveyed is very clear: money is starting to move again in some way.

What does this liquidity easing bring? With more money in banks, the willingness to lend and risk appetite generally follow; the influx of incremental funds typically provides a bottom support for the stock market, bond market, and even the crypto market; most importantly, this action by the Fed is equivalent to a clear statement: "We are watching, and we will not sit idly by while risks spread."

So at this moment, panicking and escaping may be the most disadvantageous strategy. Looking back at the past few cycles, the turning points of liquidity often hide opportunities—those who remain calm and position themselves in advance usually gain the upper hand in the next round. Emotions can create volatility, but cognition determines how far you can ultimately go.

The trend of ETH might be worth watching. Historically, during phases of liquidity easing, mainstream crypto assets tend to perform relatively well. Which sectors do you think this round of funds will prioritize? #美联储恢复降息进程 $BTC

This operation of 13.5 billion is really ruthless, indeed more intense compared to the previous two years.

1.35 billion spent all at once, this is indeed a bold move, if you stay calm you can really make a profit.
