📉 Risk Assets Pull Back as Macro Pressure Builds
Global markets are shifting into risk-off mode as political signals, tighter liquidity, and monetary uncertainty collide.
The trigger came after Donald Trump nominated former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh, reviving concerns of a more hawkish Fed path and delaying expectations for near-term rate cuts.
📊 Markets reacted fast:
U.S. equities slipped, with tech leading losses
Volatility picked up as investors trimmed exposure
Dollar strength pressured risk assets across the board
💰 Crypto followed equities The crypto market dropped sharply, reinforcing its current role as a macro-sensitive risk asset, not a hedge. A strong dollar and liquidity squeeze forced leveraged positions to unwind, accelerating sell pressure.
🔥 Key drivers behind the crypto dip:
Dollar liquidity crunch
Hawkish Fed expectations
Over-leveraged long positions getting liquidated
Fear & Greed Index sinking into extreme fear
📉 Precious metals weren’t spared Gold and silver saw historic single-day drops, not due to fundamentals, but because of system-wide deleveraging as investors rushed for cash.
👀 What to watch next
U.S. jobs data for clues on rate cuts
Bitcoin holding critical support around ($75K–$78K)
ETF flows and broader liquidity conditions
Until liquidity improves, markets may stay volatile — but periods of stress often create long-term positioning opportunities.
