Fed announces Taper and what this means for stocks and crypto.

87
The federal reserve just announced a potential taper of the asset purchase and start reducing the growth of their balance sheet going into 2022. This taper could potentially end in mid 2022 and Jerome Powell announced they would consider raising rates depending on the economic situation then. This clearly reflects that inflation is running wild in the United States and their fingers are on that button to prevent it from running wild. Both the US 10y treasury as well as the SPX are seen rising together which is another sign there is too much money chasing too little goods and services. The price action of the bond market looks to mimic that of October 2017 if the taper really starts in November 2021. Q4 2017 was the year when the federal reserve starts to unwind their balance sheet and unload the assets that they purchased into the markets. The risk on assets like stock and Bitcoin fell heavily right after....
Note
Correction bond prices in Q4 2013 looks more worthy of consideration since the fed announced their taper of asset repo back then too after the 08 crisis
