Bitcoin’s strong rise may delay the US interest rate cut

In light of the strong rise of the most famous digital currency in the markets in terms of market capitalization,
Bitcoin, as it exceeded the $69,000 barrier and reached its highest level ever this week.
This record rise in the price of Bitcoin may lead the US Federal Reserve
to postpone the decision to cut interest rates planned for later this year.
Bitcoin has crossed the $60,000 level and the recent strong rise in stocks may be a sign of a bubble in risky assets,

this could worry the US Federal Reserve and push it to postpone the interest rate cut as previously planned.

There is a possibility that the US Federal Reserve will maintain a tight monetary policy for a longer period,
as an early cut in interest rates could lead to increased inflation in asset prices or cause further rises in the US inflation rate.

The possibility of an imminent European interest rate cut

Following yesterday’s decision by the ECB Governing Council not to change interest rates to 4.50%,
ECB monetary policymakers today continued to signal a possible rate cut soon.

European Central Bank member Madis Müller said European interest rates are likely to fall in the
future while stressing that inflation must stabilize at the central bank’s 2% target sustainably before any action is taken.

At the same time, European Central Bank Governing Council member Robert Holzmann
stated that there may be a change in monetary policy in the future,
and ECB member Gediminas Šimkus. stressed that although it is unlikely that monetary policy will be eased in April,
it is highly expected. Interest rates will be cut in June 2024.

However, a member of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank, François Villeroy,
stated today that it is very likely that interest rates will be cut in the spring, from April to next June,
noting that there is a secondary problem related to the exact timing of the start of the cuts despite confirmation of happening this year.

Doubts about the imminent date for the Federal Reserve to change its monetary policies

Expectations of an interest rate cut in March may shift to doubt about any cuts this year.

Despite this shift in market sentiment, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell continues
to emphasize the expected slowdown in the core PCE inflation rate on an annual basis.
Expectations are for it to decline to around 2.5% by May, making a June rate cut likely
