Today's market is a bit interesting. Two numbers are in front of us—80% and 87.6%.
Let's talk about the 80% first. The probability of the Bank of Japan raising interest rates in December has soared to this number, which is a bit surprising in terms of speed. Now looking at 87.6%, this is the probability shown by CME tools for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by 25 basis points in December, which is almost a certainty.
More subtly, there was Powell's speech this morning. Throughout the entire speech, not a single mention of the economy or monetary policy was made. This deliberate omission instead leads to various speculations—was it confidence or is there another consideration?
Honestly, in the current situation, it's better to manage your positions than to guess the direction. On one hand, there are expectations of interest rate hikes, and on the other hand, there are signals of interest rate cuts. These two forces are clashing head-on; which one will the market digest first? Or will there be an unexpected reaction?
The mainstream cryptocurrencies like ETH and BNB have been quite volatile recently, and new listings like PIPPIN have experienced roller coaster rides. What do you think will happen next?

Japan's interest rate hike is still not stable enough.
