Powell Allegedly Shifts From Fed 2% Inflation Target: What Traders Should Watch for Bitcoin (BTC), DXY, and Yields
According to @rovercrc, Jerome Powell confirmed the Federal Reserve is moving away from its 2% inflation target, implying more persistent inflation and a bullish setup for Bitcoin (BTC) in his view (source: @rovercrc on X). This claim is not corroborated by any official Federal Reserve transcript or press release at the time of writing, and the Fed’s Statement on Longer-Run Goals defines a 2% longer-run PCE inflation objective (source: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). For trading verification, monitor the Federal Reserve speeches and press releases for the relevant text and track rate expectations via CME FedWatch alongside BTC price and volume to gauge positioning (source: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; CME Group). Until there is official confirmation, treat this as headline risk and watch the dollar index (DXY) and U.S. 2-year Treasury yields for signs of repricing that could drive near-term BTC volatility and liquidity shifts (source: CME Group; Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). |
