The macro calendar for January is already packed, with several key events worth paying close attention to. The Federal Reserve's Beige Book will be released on the 14th, followed by the decision on MSTR's removal from the MSCI index on the 15th. During the same period, Korea and Japan will also hold their interest rate decisions—Korea on the 15th and Japan on the 23rd. Additionally, the World Economic Forum (WEF) from the 19th to the 23rd and the subsequent Paris Global Peace Conference will also send significant policy signals.
Of particular note is that the Trump administration has prepared to nominate the next Federal Reserve Chair, while Powell's term will extend until May 2026 (board members' terms until 2028). At the same time, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled on the legality of reciprocal tariffs, which means Trump's trade authority could be further expanded, potentially causing market liquidity fluctuations.
Looking at the FOMC's annual schedule, benchmark interest rates in various countries remain relatively high—US at 3.75%, Europe at 2.15%, Japan at 0.75%, and Korea at 2.5%. The FOMC meetings on January 29th, March 19th, and April 30th are all worth strategic planning in advance. This week, focus on JOLTS data, non-farm employment, and unemployment rate changes, as these will directly influence the short-term trends of assets like BTC.

Damn, the event on the 15th was a domino effect, MSTR was kicked out of MSCI, and three countries made simultaneous decisions. This pace is bound to cause a explosion.
Wait, is Trump messing with trade rights again? Is he trying to lock in liquidity directly...
The FOMC on January 29th must be closely watched, keep an eye on BTC.
Non-farm payroll data is coming this week? Should I rush to buy the dip or sell the top, brothers?
Powell's term extends until 2026. What can Trump and the new administration do in these two years?
During the WEF, will there be hawkish remarks again? We might get stung once more.
So many issues, I’ll just focus on non-farm and JOLTS data. All other signals are just noise.

Two major events on the 15th, MSTR's index release + Korea's resolution, this time liquidity is likely to be stirred up
Trump's side has made mutual tariff legality official, in other words, they've given themselves the green light. The crypto market will once again dance to GDP data
Non-farm payrolls to watch this week, directly affecting BTC's short-term trading space, so stay tuned
During the WEF, policy signals were flying everywhere. Although they all sound like big principles, each time they can create ripples
Powell will serve until 2026, which means the Fed's policy framework won't change much in the short term. This is actually good for long-term holdings
Three key FOMC meetings this year, especially the one on January 29th, mark it on your calendar

The schedule in January is really packed, and the MSTR moves feel a bit suspicious.

Trump is implementing reciprocal tariffs again, it feels like chaos is coming... This week, BTC is probably going to ride a roller coaster along with the non-farm payroll data.

January is packed with so many major events, it's really a blockbuster month
Trump's trade authority has been expanded again, the market is about to be stirred
The Beige Book, MSTR, and rate cuts in Korea and Japan are all coming, we need to keep a close eye this week
Mutual tariff agreements are now legal, market volatility shouldn't be surprising
Looking at the FOMC schedule, there are no good days these days
BTC will mainly depend on these employment data, it's too reliant
The WEF and Paris meetings are again a time for a bunch of mouthpieces to make statements
With interest rates so high, I really don't know when we can finally breathe a sigh of relief
Powell's term extended to 2026, the next chairperson will really have a tough job
It seems that market liquidity fluctuations are just beginning
