What Happened: Over the Easter weekend, Bitcoin saw an increase of approximately $1,000, seemingly influenced by remarks from Jerome Powell, the Chair of the United States Federal Reserve.
During an interview at the Macroeconomics and Monetary Policy Conference in San Francisco, California, Powell expressed a calm stance regarding both inflation and the economic outlook.
The Federal Reserve, he emphasized, is not rushing to implement interest rate cuts. Currently, the economy is strong, the job market is robust, and inflation has been decreasing, he said. We have the ability and intention to approach this decision cautiouslybecause we have the ability to do so.
June is currently the markets top prediction for the first rate cut, with a 61% chance of a 0.25% reduction at the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting that month, according to data from CME Groups FedWatch Tool.
