The odds of there were 3 rate hikes in 2022 were 96% prior to Powell’s announcement – all expected….
As well as the doubling of tapering …. all expected
The market reaction was initially a rise in the USD and a drop of the whole market, then slowly everything reversed
The US dollar then headed towards 96.30 where it is now but the strong signal below 96
Yesterday I put on Twitter this analogy with 2015 when on December 15th (coincidence) the Fed made the first rate hike and what happened next on Gold / Gold stocks & Silver
Santa Claus rally ahead?
watch 96
In the meantime, are we in a position to see the rally at the end of the year? it seems so despite all the bearish signals that have existed for days
Everything postponed to January? possible
3 increases are a lot but it seems that the market is ignoring them: I don’t trust the first reactions and therefore I want to see today and tomorrow what happens
In the meantime, I follow the US dollar to understand if a signal is coming from him
Gold stocks & c update later
