Why the Fed’s 2% Core PCE Inflation Target is Considered Extreme and Its Impact on Rate Cut Timing – Trading Analysis
According to Mihir (@RhythmicAnalyst), the Federal Reserve's 2% core PCE inflation target is historically extreme, given that the average annual change in the US Core PCE Price Index has been 3.24% from 1960 to 2025, with peaks as high as 10.22% in 1975 and lows of 0.63%. For traders, this historical context signals that the Fed may be intentionally delaying rate cuts to ensure inflation is sustainably below its stated target. This cautious policy stance impacts risk sentiment in crypto and traditional markets, making rate-sensitive trades in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and tech stocks potentially more volatile until clear Fed guidance emerges (Source: Mihir/@RhythmicAnalyst, Twitter, May 1, 2025). |
