FOMC meeting comes in today
Top analyst Michael van de Poppe reminded the community that a scheduled FOMC meeting takes place later today. Experts believe that the Fed Reserve is likely to keep the interest rates unchanged in June. Even though economic data looks solid for now, the forecasts for the rest of the year seem rather uncertain. The main reasons here are trade tariffs and the unstable military situation in the Middle East. The next meeting is scheduled 29-30 July.
Poppe tweeted that one day before a FOMC meeting happens, Bitcoin price usually drops. The analyst clarified: “It's standard: risk-off prior to the meeting, risk-on again afterwards.” He added that this is “a standard opportunity for Bitcoin to accumulate.”
The FOMC meeting comes in today, and, usually, that provides the bottom for #Bitcoin the day before.
