#Week #Ahead #Crypto #Federal #Reserve #Governor #Christopher #Waller #Advocates #December #Rate #Cut
The crypto market is eyeing a critical week ahead as Fed Rate cut odds fluctuate below 70%. However, Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller is leaning towards an interest-rate cut in December. Waller said, “My concern is mainly labor market, in terms of our dual mandate. So I’m advocating for a rate cut at the next meeting. You may see a more of a meeting-by-meeting approach once you get to January.”
Critical economic data releases are set to be released this week. After a turbulent week that saw Bitcoin plunge to $82,000 before staging a slight weekend rebound, everyone is closely monitoring rate cut probabilities.
