On January 28, Rick Rieder, a Wall Street veteran, was seen as a potential market-centric approach to the Federal Reserve. Last September, he advocated for a more aggressive 50-basis-point rate cut, rather than the Fed's then-preferred 25-basis-point gradual pace. He also opposed forward guidance from the central bank on future interest rate movements, the so-called "dot plot." Economists at Evercore ISI, including Krishna Guha, wrote earlier this week, "He will maintain a dovish interest rate stance and may advocate for three rate cuts this year." Currently, the interest rate swap market is only pricing in fewer than two 25-basis-point rate cuts in 2026. However, the SOFR options market has recently seen a surge in positions that would benefit from multiple rate cuts, aiming to lower the federal funds rate to as low as 1.5% by the end of this year, significantly lower than the current pricing of approximately 3.2% in the interest rate swap market.

Arthur Hayes has released an article titled 'Woomph,' analyzing the recent depreciation of the yen and the decline in Japanese government bond prices, which are causing disruptions in global financial markets. According to Foresight News, Hayes suggests that the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury might be compelled to intervene directly in the yen exchange rate and the Japanese bond market by expanding their balance sheets, thereby injecting new liquidity into the global fiat currency system. Hayes notes that a stronger yen against the dollar correlates with a decline in Bitcoin prices. He states that he will not increase risk until it is confirmed that the Federal Reserve is printing money to intervene in the yen and Japanese bond markets. If there is a significant increase in foreign currency-denominated assets on the Federal Reserve's balance sheet, it would be an opportune time to increase Bitcoin holdings. Before the yen's volatility, he had closed positions in high-leverage Bitcoin-related assets such as Strategy and Metaplanet. If his assessment proves correct, he plans to re-enter the market. While awaiting policy clarity, his fund, Maelstrom, continues to increase its holdings in Zcash, maintaining positions in other quality DeFi tokens. Once the Federal Reserve confirms balance sheet expansion intervention, he will consider increasing investments in DeFi assets like ENA, ETHFI, PENDLE, and LDO.
