🚨 The Federal Reserve injected another $26 billion into the market, but don’t rush to call a bull market — the underlying complexities are far more intricate than they appear.
【What just happened】
The Federal Reserve injected $26 billion of short-term liquidity into the market. It looks like "money printing," but in reality, it’s behind-the-scenes pressure management. Why do I say that? Because the real purpose of this money is to maintain system stability before major policy adjustments.
Sounds different, right? Indeed. This isn’t a stimulant but an emergency shot. The short-term funding pressure is temporarily eased, giving banks a breather, and the risk of market collapse has been postponed. But this doesn’t mean a true turning point has arrived — interest rates are still high, and the shift toward easing policies has not truly occurred.
【What smart money is watching】
The Fed always acts first and speaks later. Those headline news? Often reactive and lagging. The real signals are hidden in the details:
Watch the changes in overnight reverse repurchase agreements. This reflects the true level of short-term funding pressure. The fluctuations in bank reserve balances are also critical — they directly impact banks’ lending capacity. And the buying and selling pressure in the government bond market can tell you the true attitude of institutional investors.
These indicators, when connected, are more sincere than any official statement.
【Volatility will return】
This injection is like pouring water on an overheated engine. It can cool things down and temporarily relieve pressure. But the fundamental problems remain unresolved. When short-term pressure eases and market sentiment slightly stabilizes, you still have to face a few questions:
How long will the high-interest-rate environment last? Can economic data truly support a policy shift? Can risk assets, especially highly volatile ones like cryptocurrencies, truly break through?
There are no answers to these questions.
【Current strategy】
Simply put: keep a close eye on actions, don’t be fooled by slogans.
Don’t get overly enthusiastic about chasing gains just because of "money printing." Don’t blindly follow the so-called "easing expectations." What really matters is the actual interest rate path — where it’s headed — and the liquidity gap. These two factors will determine the true market space.
The performance of privacy coins like ZEC, SUI, FLOW and new public chains in this wave of market activity actually reflects the market’s true attitude toward risk assets. Don’t just look at the gains; pay attention to whether the demand is real or just liquidity-driven.
【Final words】
During a monetary policy turning point, patience is far more important than frenzy. Timing is more critical than direction. The $26 billion injection by the Fed is not a signal flare, just a transition. The real turning point has not yet arrived.
