## Today’s Main Token Trends
### BTC
![](https://gimg2.gateimg.com/image/article/1690178288BTC.png)
The market is currently oscillating in a consolidation phase with no clear direction. It has been unable to break above $30,480 USD and remains supported above $29,500 USD. Utilize the high-selling and low-buying strategy for opportunistic entries. If a breakout occurs, potential targets are $36,000 USD and a top around $40,500 USD. If it falls below $26,500 USD, the possibility of ending this year's rebound increases.

### ETH

The short-term trend has fallen below the first key support in the ascending structure. A conservative approach is to wait for a breakout above $2,036 USD as a bullish signal. The medium-term target is set at $2,358 USD, and breaking above $2,036 USD would signal a turn to a bullish stance.

### LTC

Monitor whether LTC can stabilize above $93.39 USD for a potential short-term position. The short-term outlook is a mix of bullish and bearish sentiments.

## Macro: Inflation is slowing down, and a 25 bp interest rate hike has become a consensus; Focus on important data this Wednesday and Thursday
According to data, Federal Reserve policymakers are preparing to raise interest rates to their highest level in 22 years on Wednesday, while maintaining a tightening trend, indicating that further action may be taken later this year.

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is expected to raise interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point to 5.25% -5.5%, which is the 11th interest rate increase in the past 16 months.

The interest rate hike in July was carried out after a pause in June, to slow down the pace of rate hikes when interest rates approached a sufficient level to bring inflation back to the 2% target over time.

Nevertheless, Powell and other policymakers still hope to show a resolute attitude and reserve the option of raising interest rates again to avoid another price surge.

James Knightley, chief international economist of Netherlands International Bank, said: "Inflation is slowing down, but it is not fast enough for the Federal Reserve; as the job market remains strong, officials will not take risks."

On Wednesday, July 27, 2023, at 19 pm (UTC), the Federal Reserve decided to raise interest rates. The market expects or has agreed that this rate hike will be 25 basis points.

After raising interest rates at 19:30 pm (UTC) on the 27th, Powell will hold a press conference at 19:30 pm (UTC). Many of his speeches are expected to have been partially digested by the market, such as raising interest rates by 25 basis points, but he will be hawkish in emphasizing that the economy is still overheating and will continue to judge whether to raise interest rates in the future or how many times based on data.

Thursday (July 28) is a busy day, with interest rates raised at 19 pm (UTC) and unemployment benefit data for the week released at 13:30 pm (UTC), with a previous value of 22.8. In addition to unemployment data, data such as the initial annual GDP rate for the second quarter will also be released.

This Wednesday and Thursday are crucial days, so it is important to monitor market fluctuations.
