随着中国对美国商品征收 84% 的关税,比特币跌至 76,000 美元——美联储会干预吗?
随着比特币下跌以及美中关税税率达到 84%,这是否标志着新一轮系统性抛售的开始,还是美联储能够控制其后果?
目录北京宣布对美国进一步加征关税数据实际上告诉我们什么Will the Fed cut rates?
Beijing announces further tariffs against the U.S.
Trade tensions between the U.S. and China have escalated quickly in recent days, leading to visible pressure across global financial markets.
On Apr. 6, China retaliated against the U.S.âs tariff escalation by announcing a 34% counter-tariff on American goods, directly responding to the 34% levy President Trump had introduced just days earlier under his new âLiberation Dayâ tariff policy.
In turn, Trump said that if China doesnât withdraw its countermeasure, the U.S. will impose an additional 50% tariff on top of existing levies.
With a 20% base tariff already in place since March, some Chinese imports could face a cumulative tax burden of up to 104%.
如今,紧张局势进一步升级。4月9日,中国公布了更为强硬的应对措施:对美国商品加征总计84%的关税,自4月10日起生效。这其中包括此前已上调的34%,表明北京方面决定加倍努力,而非缓和局势。
突发消息:中国宣布自 4 月 10 日起对美国商品加征 84% 的关税。哇。— Kobeissi 的信 (@KobeissiLetter) 2025 年 4 月 9 日
周三,由于中国宣布对美国商品征收全面报复性关税,美国股指期货大幅下跌。道琼斯指数期货下跌790点,跌幅2.1%,标准普尔500指数期货下跌1.8%。纳斯达克100指数期货也下跌1.5%。
As of Apr. 8, the S&P 500 has dropped below the 5,000 mark for the first time in nearly a year and is now down 18.9% from its February high, close to the technical threshold of a bear market.Â
According to LSEG, S&P 500 companies have lost $5.8 trillion in market value over the past four days, marking the steepest four-day decline since the index was created. Japanâs Nikkei and other Asian markets have also started showing similar downward trends.
Crypto markets have not been immune. The global crypto market cap has fallen to $2.45 trillion, down from $3.66 trillion in mid-January, just before Trumpâs inauguration.Â
Bitcoin (BTC), which had hit an all-time high of $109,000 in January, is now trading around $76,000, with lows of $74,500 seen in the past 24 hours. Ethereum (ETH) is down over 20% in the past week, currently trading near $1,450.
The Crypto Fear and Greed Index, which tracks market sentiment based on price volatility, trading volume, and social trends, has fallen to 18. This level, categorized as âextreme fear,â hasnât been seen since June 2022.
Given these conditions, thereâs growing speculation about whether the Federal Reserve might consider a rate cut in the near term, and if so, what that could mean for digital assets. Letâs find out.
数据实际上告诉我们什么
金融市场近期走势表明,市场正处于持续承压期,而非短期回调。标普 500 指数已进入 1940 年以来第 11 大连续下跌行情,过去四个交易日累计下跌 12.1%。
这使得当前的下降幅度与 2020 年 3 月、2008 年 10 月和 2001 年 9 月的下降幅度处于相同的统计范围内,这些时期的特点是宏观经济或地缘政治动荡更为广泛。
波动率指数 (VIX) 也持续高位。VIX 连续第三天收于 45 上方。8. 近几十年来,这种模式仅出现过三次——分别是在 2008 年、2020 年以及现在的 2025 年的熊市期间。
虽然它本身并不是一个预测信号,但它反映了整个系统更广泛的风险重新定价,波动性在较长时间内保持在正常阈值以上。
Beyond equities, bond markets are seeing ongoing turbulence, partly due to the unwinding of carry trades and lingering concerns over inflation that may prove more durable than previously assumed.Â
Several analysts have noted that the current volatility is making it harder for investors to assess risk premiums and price in future expectations with confidence.
Thereâs also growing skepticism around expectations of rapid policy easing by the Federal Reserve. Economist Nouriel Roubini, among others, has pointed out that markets may be too quick to assume that central banks will intervene forcefully.Â
根据这种观点,除非政治言论(尤其是特朗普总统在贸易问题上的言论)得到控制,否则任何潜在的支持都可能被推迟或减弱。
与此同时,日本央行行长上田一夫表示,如果国内状况如预期改善,将继续加息。
不过,他也指出,全球贸易紧张局势仍然是一个关键变量,这表明在整体形势稳定之前,国外的货币政策可能仍将保持被动而非主动。
美联储会降息吗?
随着美国经济面临新的压力,投资者正在重新考虑美联储可能何时被迫采取行动。
According to the CME FedWatch Tool, the probability of a 25 basis point cut at the Fedâs next meeting on May 6â7 has risen to 54%. Just a week ago, that number stood at 10%.Â
The sudden change reflects the growing concern that persistent financial stress, driven in part by tariff-related shocks, could impact consumer confidence and business investment more quickly than anticipated.
But the signals from the Fed remain cautious. San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly stated this week that thereâs âno rushâ to lower rates.Â
Despite acknowledging some short-term inflation concerns due to tariffs, she noted that economic growth remains strong and policy is currently âin a good place.âÂ
Federal Reserve Governor Adriana Kugler offered a similar perspective. She suggested that the recent inflation uptick may be driven by expectations around the impact of new tariffs, not necessarily a fundamental shift in underlying price trends.Â
Kugler reiterated the Fedâs commitment to its 2% inflation target, emphasizing that keeping long-term inflation expectations anchored remains a top priority.
Still, not everyone agrees that waiting is the right move. Peter Schiff, a financial commentator and well-known Bitcoin critic, argues that the Treasury market is already signaling deeper instability, with yields on 10- and 30-year bonds reaching 4.5% and 5%, respectively. He warns that without a rapid rate cut and a liquidity injection, the strain could worsen.
正如我之前警告的那样,美国国债市场正在崩盘。10 年期国债收益率刚刚达到 4.5%,30 年期国债收益率刚刚达到 5%。如果明天早上不紧急降息并宣布大规模量化宽松计划,明天可能会出现 1987 年那样的股市崩盘。— Peter Schiff (@PeterSchiff) 2025年4月9日
加密货币分析师昆顿 (Quinten) 也观察到了类似的趋势,他指出,即使股市下跌,投资者也不会转向政府债券等传统的避风港。
通常,当股票抛售时,投资者会寻求政府债券的避险。这种“避险”行为推高了债券价格,降低了收益率。但现在这种情况并没有发生。Yields are rising while stocks are falling. That means investors arenât moving into bonds either. Theyâre⦠pic.twitter.com/uNCxrnaPTPâ Quinten | 048.eth (@QuintenFrancois) April 7, 2025
When both equities and bonds fall in tandem, it usually reflects tightening liquidity conditions, conditions that crypto assets tend to respond to quickly.
If the Fed does decide to cut rates, digital assets could benefit from the renewed availability of liquidity. Historically, lower interest rates have pushed more capital into higher-risk, growth-oriented assets, crypto included.Â
A rate cut could ease the current selling pressure and potentially restore investor appetite, especially for assets like Bitcoin that have previously performed well during expansionary policy periods.
On the other hand, if the Fed holds rates steady and adopts a wait-and-see approach, crypto markets could remain under pressure, particularly if the broader financial environment continues to deteriorate.Â
Liquidity remains a key input for crypto valuation, and without clear signs of relief, the sector may continue to reflect the strain seen in other asset classes.
