Yet, the recent failure of Silicon Valley Bank, along with other banks, presents an immediate difficulty in the shape of a banking crisis.Furthermore, in February 2023, the CPI increased by 0.4%, and it increased by 6% over the course of a year. But, investors’ worries about a domino effect have caused the KBW Nasdaq Bank Index to drop by 27.62 percent over the last two weeks.<h3 id="high-volatility-expected">High Volatility Expected</h3>Moreover, the result of the FOMC meeting should address the dual challenges of lowering inflation and averting a financial crisis that might have knock-on effects throughout the economy.More likely than not (63%), according to the CME FedWatch Tool that predicts the Federal target rate at the forthcoming FOMC meeting, is a 25 bps rise. In this scenario, a 25 bps rate rise followed by a dovish Fed mood is seen as potentially catalyzing a <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/tag/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> price surge to over the $30,000 threshold, according to experts. Moreover, analysts said they wouldn’t completely rule out a surge if it happened next week.Yet, the cryptocurrency’s price may see a fall before the FOMC meeting, since this has been the historical pattern surrounding prior FOMC meetings.
