U.S. Economy In ‘Good Place’, What It Means For The Crypto Market?

The U.S. economy appears to be preparing for a paradigm shift as the next Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting looms over the country’s economic horizon. With the current fed rates expected to remain the same, a whirlpool of speculations appears to be birthing for the projections of Fed officials for 2024. As the meeting is all set to commence in 11 days, the country’s financial landscape, including the crypto realm, embraces itself for a potential impact. Meanwhile, with inflation rates cooling down compared to last year, the U.S. economy appears to be thriving gradually.

Interest Rates Likely To Be Unchanged: A Detailed Report

With the robust labor market and moderating inflation, the Federal Reserve is anticipated to retain its stance on the current interest rates. The latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) data portrayed a significant decline in inflation rates since the past year. However, compared to the 3.14% mark last month, the current rate rests at 3.35%, contrasting with market anticipation. Moreover, the current inflation rate of 3.40 is still above the 2% range set by the Fed.

Meanwhile, Mary Daly, president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, stated that the U.S. economy is “in a really good place.” She drew contrasting lines for the country’s current economic landscape with the previous year’s performance.

Aligning with this, the Fed Funds target rates are also anticipated to remain unchanged following the upcoming meeting. Although target rate possibilities for the 31 Jan fed meeting appear to hint toward the possibility of unchanged rates, a likely drop to 5.25 also seems looming. Notably, the probability for unchanged rates also mirrored the aforestated data, with charts showcasing a 97.9% possibility for no change.

The possibility of unchanged rates also appears to be staging for a potential impact on the crypto realm. As the interest rates remain poised to be unchanged, the current crypto market will continue to forge ahead. Whereas, if the rates drop marginally and reach 5.25, institutional investors and retail investors might look for investments in more volatile assets. Following this, crypto prices are also expected to take a bolstered effect, propelling the cryptographic venture within the nation.
