On September 16th, it was reported that although Bitcoin's dominance has recently become an important indicator of the altcoin rotation opportunity, the ranking of the Coinbase app store provides a unique perspective for measuring retail participation - this indicator has often accurately predicted the market's FOMO sentiment in history. When the app ranking climbs to the top, it often coincides with the peak of the cycle, and its value in identifying the peak of mainstream retail interest has been validated multiple times. Currently, Coinbase is ranked 260th in the US app store, indicating that despite the recent rise in mainstream cryptocurrencies, retail participation remains relatively subdued. At first glance, this ranking seems to imply that the market is still in the early stages, but historical precedents show that the ranking will fluctuate sharply when retail sentiment changes.

 analysts at Societe Generale believe that the Federal Reserve's moderately restrictive stance has been maintained for too long and there is a risk of "excessive tightening". Therefore, despite concerns about current inflation stickiness, the risk balance in the Federal Reserve's dual mandate (employment and inflation) has shifted towards employment, and based on this, it is necessary to adopt a more aggressive policy adjustment (i.e. a 50 basis point rate cut). In fact, they are not the only ones holding this view, Standard Chartered Bank is another institution predicting that the Federal Reserve will cut rates by 50 basis points this week. However, it is important to be cautious as this view contradicts the current market pricing and general consensus - the current market widely expects a 25 basis point rate cut. As mentioned earlier, traders currently believe that the probability of a 50 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve is only about 4%.

according to The Wall Street Journal, Dow Jones market data shows that the price of gold has surged by 39% this year, with the annual price increase expected to exceed the most severe of the COVID-19 pandemic or the 2007-09 economic recession. Since 1979, gold futures have not surged this much in a year. In 1979, the global energy crisis triggered an inflation shock that severely impacted the world economy. Nearly three years ago, with the strong support of central banks around the world and Chinese investors increasing their holdings of gold, the price of gold began to rise. However, Western investors have played a role in fueling this year's surge, partly due to their influx into ETFs. Data from Morningstar shows that since January of this year, the net assets of US ETFs related to physical gold have surged by 43%. After Powell hinted that the Fed would begin cutting interest rates at this week's meeting, gold prices rose again in August. Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank, said that as of early September, 47% of the net commodity holdings of hedge funds were in gold.
