👇1-11) Bitcoin has surged by 4% since yesterday, aligning with our tactical bullish outlook. The cryptocurrency made a decisive move upward, breaking out of the symmetrical triangle pattern, which suggests that there could be further upside potential. The Bitcoin funding rate has shifted back into a premium, supported by a $1 billion increase in open interest. Given these dynamics, a straightforward strategy would be to go long on Bitcoin while shorting Ethereum, as Bitcoin's dominance continues to rise and its share of open interest consistently diverges in its favor.

👇2-11) The Federal Reserve minutes were as dovish as anticipated, with a strong focus on the employment aspect of its dual mandate. The inflation target seems within reach based on the current economic data projections. A "vast majority" of FOMC members supported a rate cut in September, with several members even considering a July cut as a plausible option. This makes a rate cut in September almost a certainty.

👇3-11) Powell's upcoming Friday speech is expected to reinforce this dovish outlook, likely boosting risk assets like stocks and Bitcoin as monetary policy provides a favorable backdrop. The Fed's focus is shifting towards employment in its decision-making, with inflation data becoming less central, especially as CPI trends towards 2.5% over the coming months. Multiple rate cuts will likely be necessary to sustain the current economic expansion.
