Description
This episode is sponsored by Nexo.io, Arculus and FTX US. Wednesday, the U.S. Federal Reserve increased its benchmark interest rate for the first time since 2018. This came despite an increasingly volatile economic landscape that includes the fallout from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine plus the supply chain impacts of COVID-19 shutdowns in China. NLW breaks down the market’s reaction to the anticipated hike, and explores how quantitative tightening is likely to proceed from here. - Take your crypto to the next level with Nexo.
