BlockBeats News, December 18th. QCP Capital posted on its official channel, stating that the market is ending the year in a fragile balance of confidence and caution. The Federal Reserve, in a dovish rate cut tone mixed with hawkish tendencies, signaled support for the labor market while firmly keeping inflation in focus. The dot plot predicts a flattening rate path, with the current market pricing expecting around 2 to 3 rate cuts next year.
The stock market remains a key macro swing factor. Funds continue to flow into the artificial intelligence infrastructure sector, but its monetization process lags behind. If income growth cannot keep pace with investment, risks will spread from the AI sector, potentially triggering a broader stock market revaluation in 2026.
The cryptocurrency market continues to face pressure as Morgan Stanley Capital International reviews the eligibility of digital asset management companies for index inclusion. This may trigger passive outflows of up to $28 billion.
