Everyone expected a pump after the FOMC meeting â but instead, markets bled.
The Fed slashed rates by 25 bps (second cut of 2025), traders went full bullish⌠and then the charts flipped red.
Hereâs what really happened đ
1ď¸âŁ Already Priced In â The 25 bps cut was no surprise. Everyone expected it, so there was nothing left to âcelebrate.â
2ď¸âŁ Powellâs Tone Killed the Mood â He mentioned inflationâs still âelevatedâ and job risks are rising. Thatâs caution, not confidence.
3ď¸âŁ Divided Fed â One member wanted a 50 bps cut, another wanted none. That split screams uncertainty inside the Fed.
4ď¸âŁ Futures Market Dumped â Traders scaled back bets on more cuts. That means less liquidity â and instant sell pressure.
5ď¸âŁ Hidden Message â The Fedâs cutting rates not because everythingâs great, but because theyâre worried itâs not.
When rate cuts come from fear, not strength, markets read it as a warning.
So no, the crash wasnât random â it was the truth behind the headline.
Markets move on sentiment, not news â and last night, sentiment flipped hard.
Whatâs your take? Panic reaction or early signal of something deeper?
