All eyes turn to July 29. The FOMC meets with rates at 3.75% and, for the first time in a while, a genuine hawkish tail: Warsh's Fed has an open dissenter in Logan calling for a hike, sticky inflation, and an oil situation that only recently began cooling. This isn't a "will they cut" meeting anymore. The setup matters more than the base case. Markets still lean toward a hold, but the risk is asymmetric: a surprise hike, or a hawkish hold with hike guidance, would hit a market positioned for eventual easing. Crypto's firm today (ETH ripping +4% to $1,960), pricing calm into the meeting. I'd respect the tail: the distance between "hold and dovish" and "hold but hawkish" is where volatility lives. Watching the statement and the dot plot, not just the rate. DYOR. #FOMCRateWatch #OKXOrbit
