After completing the second test yesterday, Bitcoin rebounded as expected, with the highest rebound reaching 99488, very close to the rebound high of 99540 on the 21st. However, compared with the decline in trading volume from the 19th to the 20th, the rebound trading volume is still relatively small, and the rebound is too steep and lacks sustainability; yesterday, the four indicative Bitcoin spot ETFs, FBTC, ARKB, BITB, and BTC, had a total net outflow of US$149.7 million, and Bitcoin ETFs continued to sell on a large scale.
Considering that there are a lot of locked-in orders between 100,000 and 103,000, in such a market environment, the probability of Bitcoin breaking upward is relatively small and entering a consolidation phase, but as long as it does not fall below 97,000, it can continue to be bullish! Bitcoin short-term resistance: 103,000, short-term support: 97,000.
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points on December 19 as expected, but the bank sent a hawkish signal after the meeting, suggesting that the pace of interest rate cuts will slow down in 2025. It is expected that there will be only two interest rate cuts of 25 basis points each next year, which is less than the four times expected in September, thus triggering turmoil in the cryptocurrency market.
Under hawkish pressure, the U.S. dollar index rebounded above 108, and Bitcoin was unable to hold the $100,000 mark.
Looking ahead to 2025, Trump will be sworn in on January 20, and the market will focus on the cryptocurrency policies he will implement after taking office and the impact on the Federal Reserve's monetary policy.
“The average FOMC participant expectation is now for a 50 basis point reduction in the target range for the federal funds rate, from 4.25%-4.50%, to 3.75%-4.00% by 2025,” the outlook released by BCA Research noted.
The research firm believes that with the weakening trend in core PCE inflation and weakness in the job market, "rate cuts of more than 50 basis points may be needed."
If recent trends continue, core PCE inflation is expected to reach 2.5% in early 2025. The report said: "If the monthly core PCE inflation rate reaches the three-month average, the 12-month inflation rate will reach 2.5% by March. If the monthly core PCE inflation rate reaches the six-month average, the 12-month inflation rate will also reach 2.5% by February."
This suggests that inflation could reach or fall below the Fed's forecast levels earlier than expected.
