Doctor Profit, who previously forecasted a 0.50% cut for September, cites recent favorable CPI and PPI data as support for his prediction. He argues that a smaller rate cut might not address current economic challenges adequately and could potentially lead to another significant market downturn, similar to a recent “Blood Monday.”

He believes Fed Chair Jerome Powell will frame a larger cut as a proactive response to declining inflation and a more positive economic outlook, possibly signaling further rate reductions ahead.

For Bitcoin and stocks, Doctor Profit warns of high volatility in the lead-up to the Fed’s decision, likening the market to a “casino.” He remains optimistic about Bitcoin’s mid-to-long-term prospects and advises traders to use short-term market dips to their advantage while managing risk carefully.

In the short term, Doctor Profit emphasizes the need for effective risk management strategies, such as setting stop-losses. He anticipates that increased money printing and cash injections will stabilize the market, leading to a more favorable environment by Q3 2025. As the Federal Reserve meeting approaches, analysts suggest that a significant rate cut could trigger a Bitcoin breakout in October.
