Well, well, well, it seems the Federal Reserve might just pull a rabbit out of its hat. π©β¨ The odds of an emergency interest rate cut have skyrocketed faster than a caffeinated squirrel on Polymarket and Kalshi, all thanks to Donald Trumpβs trade war shenanigans. πΏοΈπ₯
A Polymarket poll, with over $360,000 in assets, shows these odds have surged to 31%, up from a measly 15% on April 1. Meanwhile, Kalshiβs prediction market is even more dramatic, placing the odds at a whopping 41%, the highest since last November. ππ°
Why the sudden panic, you ask? Well, multiple analysts have downgraded their economic outlook for the U.S. as the trade war expands like a balloon at a clown convention. ππ€‘ Notably, the U.S. recently slapped a 104% tariff on all Chinese goods, a move so bold it could make both economies cry. China exports roughly $432 billion worth of goods to the U.S. annually, out of a total trade volume of $582 billion between the two nations. π’π
We are green lit for Fed intervention.

But wait, thereβs more! The U.S. has also imposed broad-based tariffs on several key trade partners, including the European Union, Japan, South Korea, and Vietnam. ππ£

Bitcoin (BTC), Cardano (ADA), and Ripple (XRP) have entered a bear market this year, mirroring the broader downturn in equities. The Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq 100 indices have all fallen over 20% from their 2024 highs, officially entering bear territory. π»π
History shows that risky assets like stocks and crypto do well whenever the Federal Reserve implements an emergency interest rate cut. A good example happened in March 2020 when the fear and greed index dropped to the extreme fear zone as the pandemic started. π±π
A series of interest rate cuts, quantitative easing, and fiscal stimulus helped to boost crypto and stock prices. Bitcoin soared from below $4,000 in March 2020 to over $69,000 a year later. Similarly, XRP price jumped from $0.12 to almost $2, while Cardanoβs meteoric rise pushed it to $3 and its market cap to $91 billion. ππ
Donald Trump has already started talking about fiscal stimulus. According to the Wall Street Journal, the administration is considering a bailout for farmers and a tax credit to help exporters navigate the new normal. ππ΅
Therefore, a combination of easy money policies by the Fed and more fiscal stimulus would help push Bitcoin, Cardano, and XRP prices higher. ππ
