Why Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin Are Heading Lower Today Despite Powell's 'Very Very Good' Remarks On Inflation
Portfolio Pulse from Mehab Qureshi
Major cryptocurrencies Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin saw a decrease in value following hawkish remarks by Fed Chair Jerome Powell. The Federal Reserve decided to maintain its current monetary policy, keeping the benchmark interest rate unchanged at 5.25% to 5.50%. However, Fed officials revised their projections for next year, indicating a higher expected interest rate of around 5.1%. Stocks also slipped following the announcement, with Microsoft, Nvidia, and Alphabet experiencing declines. Crypto analysts predict that Bitcoin is likely to start trending up, while Ethereum dominance may decrease over the next few months.
