FOMC

Powell will speak before the Financial Services Committee of the US Congress House of Representatives today at 5 PM. 
The text of Powell's speech to Congress was published by the Fed. 
Accordingly, Powell will repeat his statements before the congress that they are determined to reduce inflation and that further rate hikes may be seen by the end of the year. 
The headlines in Powell's speech are as follows: 
<blockquote> 
 “As inflation remains well above our long-term target of 2 percent and labor market conditions remain tight, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has tightened its monetary policy stance significantly. 
 We have increased our policy rate by 5 percentage points since the beginning of last year and continued to reduce our securities holdings rapidly. 
 It will take time to fully reveal the effects of monetary tightening, especially on inflation. 
 Nearly all FOMC participants felt it would be appropriate to raise interest rates a little more by the end of the year. But given how quickly we moved at last week's meeting, we decided it would be prudent to keep the target range fixed to allow the committee to evaluate the additional information and its implications for monetary policy. 
 In determining the extent of additional policy tightening that may be appropriate to return inflation to 2 percent over time, we will consider the cumulative tightening of monetary policy, delays in monetary policy's impact on economic activity and inflation, and economic and financial developments. 
 We will continue to make our decisions from meeting to meeting according to the sum of the incoming data and their reflections on the economic activity and inflation outlook, as well as the risk balances. 
</blockquote> 
Powell's repetition of his hawk statements on June 14 did not affect Bitcoin. On the BTC side, the struggle for $ 29,000 continues.
