Investors are expecting the release of Federal Open Market Committee on Wednesday. Former Cleveland Fed President Loretta Master said softer inflation data was “good news” but not enough to stop the cycle of rate hikes.
“The latest round of Fed speech didn’t teach us anything new,” said Edward Moyaa senior market analyst at OANDA.
“The labor market is a key concern for the Fed, Mester also pointed out that demand for labor still exceeds supply. However, recent trends show that the labor market is showing signs of cooling.”
On Bitcoin, Moya said it is “back above the $16,000 level, but still at risk as everyone waits for the next crypto domino to fall.”
“Bitcoin could continue to stabilize here if Wall Street rebounds, but that seems unlikely as this bear market for stocks has yet to bottom out. Bitcoin has support ahead of the $15,500 level, but if that doesn’t hold, technical selling could send prices towards the $13,500 region.”
Cryptocurrency trader Michael van de Poppe said the apex coin is “showing some more continuation” but “needs to regain a few more levels to show serious strength.”

Market information platform Holy noted that the word “death” has been circulating in cryptocurrency discussions since November.
“As one of the several [bearish] sentiment words, this is a sign that traders are giving up on the markets recovering. Ironically, this capitulation is historically when markets recover.”
The word #death has circulated rapidly around #crypto platforms in November. As one of the several #bearish sentiment words, this is a sign that traders are giving up on the markets recovering. Ironically, this capitulation is historically when markets rebound. https://t.co/lZucDQEYli pic.twitter.com/j4cmfGiVz5
