#美国核心物价涨幅不及市场预估 Sudden Shift in Sentiment—Trump May Change Stance on Federal Reserve Chair Nominee

Latest developments reveal that Trump may no longer be certain about supporting Haskett for Federal Reserve Chair. This uncertainty has caused his chances of winning to drop from previously high levels to 14%, with former board member Wosh emerging as the most favored successor.

Once the news broke, the market reacted immediately. The US dollar index rose, the stock market turned downward, and even silver plummeted 6%—this chain reaction clearly demonstrates how sensitive Wall Street is to Federal Reserve Chair nominations.

Powell’s term has only two months remaining (ending in May), and the final list of candidates for the new chair is expected to be announced soon. Whoever takes the helm will face the same hot potato: balancing inflation control, maintaining employment, and resolving internal policy disagreements. This job has never been easy.

For cryptocurrency participants, the direction of Federal Reserve policies directly impacts liquidity expectations. The volatility of currencies like $ETH , $BNB , and $PEPE often reflects these macro signals. In the coming weeks, policy uncertainties will continue to stir the markets.

ETH0,37%

BNB0,85%

PEPE-1,76%

Hassett's probability of a straight-line plunge, Wosh's rise—why did the reversal happen so quickly... Wall Street's reaction speed is really fast --- Here we go again, every time the Fed's nominee changes, the crypto circle has to follow suit. If Wosh takes office, I wonder how liquidity will move --- In just two months, a new chairman will be appointed. The pressure must be immense... No one can handle taking over this mess --- A 6% plunge in silver shows how panicked the market is, indicating that this candidate's change in expectations is really significant --- Powell's term is almost over, and he's still messing around. I just want to know if the new chairman will be friendly to the crypto circle or continue to suppress --- It's Trump again changing his stance. This guy just loves to mess around. Who can stand being jerked around by the market like this? --- $ETH $BNB Why did it drop again these days? Could it all be because of this candidate's uncertainty... --- If Wosh really takes office, the direction of liquidity policy will likely be more aggressive than Hassett's. That should be good news for the crypto circle --- Every time the Fed changes personnel, it’s like doomsday. Can the market react a little more calmly... --- Does the US dollar index still need to rise? If so, it will be even harder for stablecoins to tell their story

Hey, are you starting to play the candidate game again? Does changing the Federal Reserve Chair really move the market that much? --- Hasset's probability was directly cut in half to 14%, this unpredictable script is just… I really don't know who to believe anymore. --- Silver plunged 6%, basically the market is betting on personnel changes, and the crypto circle has to shiver along with it. --- A hot potato that no one wants to take, with inflation, employment, and policy disagreements piling up. --- Liquidity expectations, huh? Talking about macro signals, talking about it all being the Fed Chair's fault? That's a bit mysterious. --- Waiting to see the reveal in May. Feels like ETH and Pepe will continue to ride the roller coaster for the next two months. --- Trump's move this time really has Wall Street spinning in circles. --- No matter who takes office, policies need to be balanced, but the market's reaction speed… is indeed ridiculously fast.

Here we go again with the power game, next month the crypto world will have to ride the roller coaster with the Fed's nominees... The quick reaction of Wall Street to Trump's backtrack is impressive, and we crypto folks are even faster haha It doesn't matter who gets in, in the end retail investors are the ones who suffer Liquidity expectations are again uncertain, $ETH might need a few more days to bottom out... The Fed Chair is just a hot potato, whoever takes the job will be criticized The speed of silver plunging has long been a norm in the crypto circle Actually, I just want to know—who among these two candidates is more friendly towards crypto? Once again, macro factors are cutting into us, I'm overwhelmed... Policy uncertainties are even harder to predict than technical analysis, I can't bet on it What’s the use of Wall Street’s sensitivity? Retail investors will still lose money or lose money See you in May, these two months are just a waiting game
