Fed Announcement Could Be Key for Crypto; Bitcoin Confined to Tight Range -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Yesterday

0938 GMT - Bitcoin is currently trapped in a narrow trading range as crypto investors await the Federal Reserve's rate announcement on Wednesday, Saxo analysts say in a note. "Crypto remains closely tied to macro conditions and liquidity expectations, meaning upcoming Fed communication is likely to be a key driver for the next directional move rather than crypto-specific news alone," they say. The Fed is expected to leave interest rates on hold this week but investors will scrutinize accompanying commentary for signals on the likely timing of the next rate cut. Bitcoin is last steady at $87,925, LSEG data show. (jessica.fleetham@wsj.com)
