Is the interest rate cut really good news for the market?

For example, regardless of the coupon rate, the yield on medium- and long-term US Treasury bonds has dropped from a peak of 4.5-5% to 3.5-4% today. If the official announcement of a rate cut is made, or even a series of rate cuts begins, the actual yield will naturally go down, which will be reflected in the increase in the price of the bonds themselves.

The idea that there may be some money in the market is:


Now is probably the last window to increase holdings of U.S. Treasuries. You can lock in 4% of U.S. dollars for 10 or even 30 years, so the interest rate is still very attractive.


Then these funds can only withdraw from the risky market during this time window (August-September), causing the darkness before dawn in the market.


The interest rate cut is a milestone event. Before the rate cut, there was no sense of urgency, and everyone was thinking about continuing to make money in the risk market. When the rate cut was approaching, people began to have the mentality of "hurrying to catch the last bus".


Therefore, as the interest rate cut approaches, instead of the imagined price-in-rising effect, we will feel that liquidity is constantly decreasing.

By the time the official announcement of the rate cut came, all the funds that were supposed to leave had already left. Those who stayed behind were obviously waiting for the party to begin.

PS: Of course, investors in the crypto market seem to have very different risk preferences from those of U.S. bond investors, and the user profiles may not match, so this is an unverified idea.

Crypto KOL Dayu’s opinion: The flow of funds is one point, and foreign exchange fluctuations are also a point. In addition, the matching of technology stock investment, valuation and returns requires a relatively long time. At present, AI seems to be suffocating mainly for dreams.
