According to the Golden Finance Report, investors and Trump should not expect the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut to reduce the yield of 10-year US treasury bond bonds. Although DataTrek's research found that when the Federal Reserve cut the policy interest rate, the yield of 10-year treasury bond bonds would indeed decline, but if the economy did not fall into recession when the interest rate was cut, the situation would be different. Although signs of economic weakness are emerging in the United States, the market now believes that there are no signs of a recession yet. Interest rate futures prices show that investors believe the Federal Reserve will almost certainly lower interest rates in September. In this context, the yield of 10-year US Treasury bonds may not change. This is not good news for those who are putting political pressure on the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates. (Golden Ten)
Coinbase: The knockoff season may fully arrive in Q3, and the Federal Reserve's loose policy may release more potential in the medium term Coinbase stated in its monthly outlook that its outlook for the third quarter of 2025 remains optimistic. As September approaches, current market conditions indicate that the peak season for altcoins may be fully approaching (the common definition of the peak season for altcoins is that at least 75% of the top 50 altcoins by market capitalization have performed better than Bitcoin in the past 90 days). In addition, regarding whether the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut in September means that the cryptocurrency market has peaked. Coinbase believes that given the large amount of retail capital holding a wait-and-see attitude in money market funds (over $7 trillion) and other sectors, the Federal Reserve's loose policy may unleash the potential for more retail participation in the medium term.
