The macro calendar for January is already packed, with several key events worth paying close attention to. The Federal Reserve's Beige Book will be released on the 14th, followed by the decision on MSTR's removal from the MSCI index on the 15th. During the same period, Korea and Japan will also hold their interest rate decisions—Korea on the 15th and Japan on the 23rd. Additionally, the World Economic Forum (WEF) from the 19th to the 23rd and the subsequent Paris Global Peace Conference will also send significant policy signals.
Of particular note is that the Trump administration has prepared to nominate the next Federal Reserve Chair, while Powell's term will extend until May 2026 (board members' terms until 2028). At the same time, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled on the legality of reciprocal tariffs, which means Trump's trade authority could be further expanded, potentially causing market liquidity fluctuations.
Looking at the FOMC's annual schedule, benchmark interest rates in various countries remain relatively high—US at 3.75%, Europe at 2.15%, Japan at 0.75%, and Korea at 2.5%. The FOMC meetings on January 29th, March 19th, and April 30th are all worth strategic planning in advance. This week, focus on JOLTS data, non-farm employment, and unemployment rate changes, as these will directly influence the short-term trends of assets like BTC.
