The FED talked about inflation and the economy: My OPINION on what they said!
Hi everyone,
This morning, I was this close to not doing this Morning Mood. Didn’t feel like it. Worn out. Too much work these past few days. But here’s the thing: not doing this Morning Mood means giving up on discipline, and that’s just not an option. Discipline is what holds everything together. In trading, as in life.
Looking back at last night’s live stream
You were there last night. Over 500 people at the same time, over 3,000 in total tuned into the live. Honestly, thank you.
It’s in these moments you really realize the strength of the community. Not just the numbers. But the energy, the questions, the engagement. That’s what makes the work so rewarding.
Powell, longer than usual… for good reason
Jerome Powell spoke for 8 minutes 30 seconds. Much longer than usual. And that’s no coincidence.
He had to justify several things:
- Policy on tariffs
- Handling of inflation
- And of course, the future path of interest rates
No new decisions, but a more measured tone. A clear desire to reassure without overcommitting. Classic Powell.
Discipline: not an option, a necessity
Want to perform in this field? Want to grow? Then forget about motivation. Make discipline your compass.
This morning, I was drained. But I showed up. And it’s that small gap between “I could” and “I do” that changes everything.
And today, what do we do?
We stay focused. The market is under tension. Between macroeconomic news, political uncertainties, and constantly changing volumes, you have to stay light, responsive, and strategic.
Don’t chase the market. Observe, prepare, and execute.
Conclusion: Stay in the game, stay in your bubble
It’s during moments of fatigue that discipline speaks. And it’s when you hang on that the difference is made.
Thank you again for being there last night. We keep going. Together.
