Analysts: If the Federal Reserve ends its quantitative tightening policy, it will benefit risk assets such as bitcoin
On March 19, Coindesk analyst Omkar Godbole said that the market is watching the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision on Wednesday, believing that it may provide support to the market. Some believe that if the end of the balance sheet reduction program (i.e. quantitative tightening) is announced, this may have a positive impact on the market.
Markets expect the Federal Reserve to maintain interest rates in their current range of 4.25% to 4.50%. As a result, the focus will be on how policymakers plan to move forward with their quantitative tightening program, as there are concerns that it could affect liquidity in the system, while the Treasury is grappling with ongoing debt ceiling issues. In addition, markets will focus on summaries of economic forecasts.
