Moody’s Analytics Puts US Recession Odds at 48% in August; Record BLS Payroll Revision and Implications for BTC, ETH
According to @KobeissiLetter, Moody’s Analytics’ leading economic indicator estimates a 48% probability of a US recession within 12 months as of August, the highest since 2020 and a level Moody’s historical data indicate has not occurred outside recessions (source: Moody’s Analytics via @KobeissiLetter). @KobeissiLetter also notes that the Bureau of Labor Statistics revised non-farm payrolls down by 911,000 for the 12 months ending March 2025, the largest annual downward revision on record, underscoring labor market deterioration (source: BLS via @KobeissiLetter). For trading, the Federal Reserve’s Financial Stability Report highlights that rising recession risk and tighter financial conditions tend to widen risk premia and raise volatility across risk assets (source: Federal Reserve Financial Stability Report 2023), while the IMF has documented a post-2020 increase in Bitcoin and equity return correlations, heightening the transmission of macro shocks to crypto such as BTC and ETH (source: IMF, Crypto Prices Move More in Sync With Stocks, 2022). @KobeissiLetter further asks whether earlier Fed rate cuts could have prevented this deterioration without taking a position (source: @KobeissiLetter). |

JPMorgan Revises Fed Rate Cut Forecast to December 2025: Impact on Crypto Markets and Recession Odds
According to Evan (@StockMKTNewz), JPMorgan has updated its forecast, now expecting Jerome Powell and the Federal Reserve to implement the first interest rate cut in December 2025, instead of the previously anticipated September timeline. The bank also reduced its projected probability of a US recession in 2025 to less than 50 percent (source: @StockMKTNewz, May 13, 2025). For crypto traders, this delayed rate cut could extend the current tight liquidity environment, potentially leading to continued volatility and subdued momentum in major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Investors should closely monitor macroeconomic indicators and Fed communications for any shifts that might impact risk asset flows. |
