According to CME FedWatch, traders are no longer expecting a rate cut from the US Federal Reserve this year.

 

The probability of at least one rate cut by the end of 2026 has dropped to around 40%.

 

Scenarios with no cuts, or even higher rates, are becoming more likely.

 

*Reasons for the Shift: 

Geopolitical tensions and rising oil prices are key factors.

 

These developments could reignite inflation, prompting the Fed to keep interest rates elevated for longer.

 

*Impact on Crypto Markets:

Higher interest rates generally make traditional assets more attractive compared to riskier assets like cryptocurrencies.
