#数字资产市场动态 On January 16th, the three major US stock indices all closed lower, with the Nasdaq down 0.06% and the Dow down 0.17%. Interestingly, the chip sector defied the trend and surged, with Micron Technology soaring over 7%, but Chinese concept stocks were noticeably weak, with the Golden Dragon Index falling 1.15% and Alibaba dropping over 3%.

Trump's new moves have stirred the market. The suspense over the Federal Reserve Chair candidate has intensified—he hinted that Hassett might not be able to take the position. Treasury Secretary Yellen revealed that the candidate list has been narrowed down to four people, with BlackRock's Reade and others having completed interviews, but the final decision remains a mystery. Even more intense, Trump issued a stern warning: if any country opposes US control over Greenland, it could face tariff sanctions. The global markets are tense.

Commodity markets responded accordingly. Spot gold once plummeted over 1.5%, silver dropped by 5%, and copper, nickel, and tin collectively lost ground, with LME tin falling 7.8%.

Inside the Federal Reserve, voices are also emerging. Bowman urged not to send signals of pausing rate cuts, while Jefferson said inflation is returning to 2%. The new chair remains undecided, the power structure is chaotic, and the pace of rate cuts remains uncertain. The market is asking: where will the Federal Reserve go next? Who will Trump ultimately choose to lead? The storm is approaching, and everyone is holding their breath.
