This week Wednesday is FOMC

Expect volatility in the market 🤝🚨

Make hay while the market’s sunny. June-August = smooth sailing. But September flips the script — more geopolitical friction, higher inflation, US vs China vs Russia in the mix. If that escalates, stocks take a hit. This feels like a war for global dominance. Get positioned now.

Ride the stock rally while it’s here. From September, things get messy: geopolitics heats up, inflation climbs, and US-China-Russia tensions could trigger a market crash. June-August should be smooth, September onwards looks chaotic. I’m calling this a war for global power. Position accordingly.

🇯🇵The Bank of Japan officially raises interest rates to the highest level since 1995 amid rising inflation.

📊MARKETS BET FED WILL HIKE AGAIN

Investor expectations for a Fed rate hike are rising. Bank of America’s June fund manager survey shows 40% expect at least one hike in the next 12 months, up from 16% in May. Rate-cut hopes fell sharply, with only 28% expecting cuts versus 50% last month. Prediction markets also show growing odds of a Fed hike before 2027.

🚨 FOMC STATEMENT COMPARE.

#USD #Gold

This FOMC statement is basically “USD supportive, but with some internal drama”.

Here’s what it means for the US Dollar:

*1. Hold rates at 3.5% - 3.75% = USD stays strong-ish*
Higher interest rates = higher yields on US bonds/T-bills. That attracts foreign money looking for returns. So holding rates steady instead of cutting keeps USD more attractive vs EUR, JPY, etc.
If they’d cut rates, USD would usually weaken because the “yield advantage” shrinks.

*2. “Strong economy + strong productivity” = USD tailwind*
The green text talks up the economy: solid expansion, strong productivity, investment. Markets read that as “US doesn’t need emergency rate cuts”. A resilient US economy supports USD because it reduces recession risk vs other countries.

*3. “Will deliver price stability” = hawkish tone*
That new line is Fed-speak for “we’re serious about killing inflation”. Hawkish = pro-higher rates/longer hold. That’s USD bullish short term because traders price in rates staying higher for longer.

*4. But 3 dissenters = USD uncertainty*
1 member wanted a rate cut NOW. 3 others didn’t like the “easing bias” language. Translation: the Fed isn’t unified. If more members flip to the “cut soon” camp, USD could weaken fast because markets will bet on lower rates ahead.

*Net effect for USD pairs like USD/NGN:*
Short term: Slightly bullish. Hold + hawkish language props up USD.
Medium term: Depends on inflation + jobs data. If inflation keeps falling, the dissenters might win and USD softens. If inflation stays hot, Fed holds and USD stays firm.

🚨 The market is moving as if the rate has increased, Be careful, it's a game.

Iran has reportedly suspended the entire 60-day negotiation period with the US, citing Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon as a breach of the MOU’s first clause, less than 24 hours after signing.

Iran’s delegation was preparing to depart for Switzerland before the trip was called off, and talks remain suspended until Israeli attacks stop and the US adheres to first-clause obligations.
