According to BlockBeats, the Federal Reserve will announce its July interest rate decision on July 30. The market widely expects rates to remain unchanged, but the biggest focus will be on whether there will be a surprise rate hike, the wording of the policy statement, and voting disagreements. The market will pay close attention to whether the statement includes more hawkish language, its description of inflation risks, and Chairman Warsh's latest assessment of inflation, the Middle East situation, and the future policy path at the press conference.

Analysts generally expect Hammark and Logan to vote against the rate hike, with two dissenting votes becoming the market benchmark. If more than two dissenting votes are cast, it could be seen as a further strengthening of the hawkish stance within the Federal Reserve and an increase in expectations for a September rate hike.

According to Kalshi, a market forecasting firm, there is a 58% probability that both Hammark and Logan will vote against the proposal; Polymarket, on the other hand, indicates that the highest probability (40%) is two dissenting votes, while the probabilities of one and three dissenting votes are 21% and 13%, respectively. Market participants believe that the outcome of this meeting and Warsh's speech may drive a repricing of the US dollar, US Treasury yields, and gold prices.

BlockBeats reports that the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision will be announced tonight, July 30th, and several institutions have released their forward-looking views. Most institutions expect the Fed to maintain interest rates unchanged and believe the policy statement and Chairman Warsh's press conference will be key catalysts for market volatility. Among them:

Mitsubishi UFJ and Saxo Bank believe that if the Federal Reserve releases hawkish signals or unexpectedly raises interest rates, the US dollar and US Treasury yields are likely to strengthen.

TD Securities stated that if the resolution does not receive any dissenting votes, it means that Warsh has reached a certain level of internal consensus, and the US dollar may face a significant sell-off.

DBS Bank noted that even minor changes in the wording of the statement could significantly drive short-term interest rate volatility.

Goldman Sachs and HSBC believe that even if interest rates remain unchanged throughout the year, the drag on the dollar will be relatively limited, and the dollar lacks new catalysts for appreciation unless the Federal Reserve unexpectedly raises interest rates.

Regarding gold, ING and SIA Wealth Management believe that gold prices will remain supported in the short term, but upside potential may be limited if there are unexpected hawkish developments.

According to BlockBeats, on July 30th, foreign media analysis suggests that while US President Trump continues to pressure newly appointed Federal Reserve Chairman Warsh to cut interest rates as soon as possible, Wall Street investors are increasingly betting on the opposite outcome. Recent escalation of the conflict with Iran, the implementation of a new round of global tariffs, the continued investment boom in data centers, and persistently strong US consumption have collectively exacerbated market and Federal Reserve concerns about inflationary pressures, reinforcing expectations of continued tightening policies or even further interest rate hikes.

The market widely expects the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates unchanged at its meeting on Wednesday. However, whether Warsh, who took over as chairman at the end of May, can continue to suppress calls for rate hikes within the committee increasingly depends on whether inflation can continue to improve. Current polls show that Americans are not satisfied with Trump's economic performance, and higher interest rates will undoubtedly further dampen the economic performance the White House hopes to see.

Trump has consistently called for interest rate cuts, and reiterated this stance this week. However, even if the Federal Reserve ultimately chooses to raise rates, Trump's initial target may not be Warsh, but rather other Fed officials. Trump has already appointed three members to the Fed's seven-member board of governors.

Trump previously stated, "Kevin is excellent, but he also has a committee, and the members of that committee are very politicized. He wants to do the right thing, and I know what he wants to do, but he also needs the approval of some people who may have ulterior motives. Interest rates should go down."
