🔥Central Bank Decision Week Arrives: Global Liquidity Landscape May See Major Reversal

This week is arguably the most crucial time window before year-end. The Federal Reserve meeting is imminent, with an 88% probability of a 25 basis point rate cut, but the real market expectation may point in another direction—restarting asset purchases. Some analysts predict that Powell is likely to announce in January an adjustment of monthly asset purchases to $45 billion, marking the official end of quantitative tightening and the restart of large-scale balance sheet expansion. In other words, the "liquidity injection" engine is being ignited.

It's not just the Fed making moves. Major banks like Bank of America and UBS are sending similar signals, and officials at the New York Fed have hinted at pressures on reserves, with repo market rates briefly exceeding the expected upper limit. These signs together point to a reality: liquidity conditions are teetering at a critical point.

Across the Pacific, the Bank of Japan presents a different picture. Governor Kazuo Ueda's recent remarks have been hawkish, and the market now expects a 90% chance of a rate hike. If the BOJ does act, with Japanese bond yields already at a 17-year high, it could trigger a chain reaction of unwinding carry trades, impacting global bond and equity markets.

In summary, there are two core questions: Is the Fed's move just a mild adjustment, or the start of a new round of quantitative easing? Will a rate hike in Japan become the straw that breaks the camel's back? Wednesday's decisions will provide the answers, and the market is poised for action.

An 88% probability of a rate cut sounds pretty intimidating, but the real play is bond purchases... Once the money-printing engine is ignited, this market rally could really take off.

It's true that the Federal Reserve is about to inject liquidity, but if Japan really raises interest rates, it could cause trouble. Unwinding carry trades could shake up the entire market.

Good morning, it's another arbitrageur's dawn. The Fed is playing the "liquidity injection or adjustment" binary choice, while the Bank of Japan is watching closely from across the table. This is the full picture of the current liquidity trap. Get ready to be swept by the robot paradise on Wednesday.

Liquidity is coming, guys. Is it real this time or are they going to trick us again?

Ha, it's the same old liquidity easing expectations again. This trick is getting old. Let's see if Japan dares to raise rates; if the arbitrage blows up that day, I won't be surprised. But seriously, if there's real easing on Wednesday, can $SOL stop lying flat? Powell is playing a deep game here, feels like he's sending out another smokescreen. Serious question: if they really inject liquidity and the crypto market follows the trend and pumps again, when will this cycle ever end? Liquidity can tighten or loosen at a moment's notice, and us small retail investors are always the ones getting rekt. Whether $ETH can break out this round all depends on the Fed's move. Betting one ETH that Wednesday will be a watershed moment.
