Analysis: The Federal Reserve's interest rate cut has become a consensus in the crypto market, but BIS warns that policy easing may trigger inflation again
Market analysis suggests that the consensus in the cryptocurrency market is that escalating debt concerns will force the Federal Reserve and other central banks to cut interest rates, thereby stimulating more investors to flow into alternative assets such as Bitcoin. The FedWatch tool from the Chicago Mercantile Exchange shows traders expect the Fed to cut rates twice this year, each time by 25 basis points.
However, the Bank for International Settlements warns that easing policy too early could reignite inflationary pressures and force a costly policy reversal. In fact, risks of unanchored inflation expectations have not disappeared and pressure points still exist. It stated in its annual report released on Sunday: "Although financial market pricing currently only shows a small possibility of public fiscal stress, if economic momentum weakens and there is an urgent need for public expenditure both structurally and cyclically, confidence could collapse quickly. Government bond markets would be hit first but pressure might spread more widely just like before."
