There are four major events in January that will test the US stock and cryptocurrency markets in the next month.
1. On January 10, the United States will release its monthly employment report, reflecting the health of the US economy. If US job growth remains good and the unemployment rate stabilizes at 4.2%, it will lay the foundation for the 25-year opening trend of US stocks and cryptocurrencies.
2. The fourth quarter earnings season will also kick off in January. The fourth quarter earnings season generally brings US stock market trends, and related industries such as AI are closely linked to the cryptocurrency market.
3. Trump will be inaugurated on January 20. It is expected that he will issue at least 25 executive orders on immigration, energy and cryptocurrency policies on that day. The market is closely watching which of these proposed policies will actually be implemented, and these policies will have a significant impact on the US dollar, foreign exchange, technology, and cryptocurrency.
4. The Federal Reserve held another interest rate meeting in January. Previously, due to the uncertainty of the inflation outlook, the number of interest rate cuts will be reduced in 2025. This meeting will give a glimpse of the Federal Reserve's assessment of the Trump administration on the US economy and inflation.
