#美联储降息 The latest US employment data shows an interesting phenomenon: non-farm payrolls increased by 64,000, significantly exceeding expectations, yet the unemployment rate rose to 4.6%, which is higher than anticipated. This "one rise, one fall" contradictory signal is stirring the entire market.



Let's first consider the potential impact on cryptocurrencies. Strong non-farm data typically reinforce the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance, which could reignite expectations of aggressive rate hikes, putting short-term pressure on risk assets like BTC and ETH. But there's a twist—rising unemployment itself may reduce the need for aggressive tightening, giving the market some breathing room.

In simple terms, the economic situation is quite complex, not a black-and-white choice. From this perspective, contradictory data might actually reduce the risk of a one-sided plunge, as the market needs to digest and balance these two signals.

A few suggestions for holders: First, don't overreact; fluctuations are normal in the market, and changing strategies based on one or two data points is often counterproductive. Second, think long-term—if the Fed becomes more cautious because of this, it may not be a bad thing in the long run, as the core market narrative remains unchanged. Lastly, the most important thing is to maintain rational position management: hold core coins if heavily invested, and for lighter positions, consider gradually deploying into promising assets, but never chase highs during such volatile periods.

Economic data will continue to be released, and market expectations will keep adjusting. The key is not to be blinded by short-term noise.

Contradictory data can actually be an opportunity; don't be washed out by short-term fluctuations.

Contradictory data, this is the favorite word game played by the Federal Reserve, retail investors can never figure it out.

Hmm, these data are indeed a bit confusing. Non-farm payrolls are strong, but the unemployment rate is rising? It's the old trick, the Federal Reserve loves to play heartbeat like this. Don't be scared, these conflicting signals can actually help stabilize and prevent a big drop. It's quite interesting. Hold on to your long-term holdings, don't chase highs, really.

It's another chaotic data battle, hard to tell if it's a positive or negative signal, really frustrating.

When the data contradicts each other, the market is most likely to be manipulated. Let's stay calm and not make any reckless moves.

The data is contradictory again, and I'm already tired of this routine. Anyway, in the end, we still have to look at the Fed's face. No matter how much analysis we do, it's useless.

Another data discrepancy, so annoying. Anyway, I'm just going to stay put and hold, don't move anything.

It's another case of Schrödinger's economic data—both employment and unemployment are high, making my head buzz.
