Kevin O\u2019Leary pushed back on what many traders are betting on, saying he does not expect the US Federal Reserve to cut rates in December and that such a move would not rock Bitcoin\u2019s price.<\/p>\n

The well-known investor\/entrepreneur said he is not investing as if the Fed<\/a> will ease policy, and he thinks Bitcoin will likely drift within 5% of its current level.<\/p>\n

Fed Cut Odds Skyrocketing<\/h2>\n

According to the CME FedWatch<\/a> Tool, markets are now pricing in an 89% chance of a December rate cut, a big swing from just weeks earlier when odds were far lower. This shift in expectations has been a main driver of recent moves in risk assets, including crypto.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Reacts To Shift In Sentiment<\/h2>\n

Based on reports<\/a> from market trackers, Bitcoin climbed after a recent dip, recovering from a low near $83,000 to trade around $93,700 in early trading sessions. Coingecko listed the price roughly in the $92,700\u2013$92,800 band during morning trade.<\/p>\n

Traders point to support at $90,000 and resistance near $92,500<\/a>, and some desk notes say a clean break above that could open a run toward $94K\u2013$95K.<\/p>\n

Why O\u2019Leary Is Skeptical<\/p>\n

O\u2019Leary has flagged higher prices in the economy and sticky input costs as reasons the Fed might hold off. Reports show US consumer prices rose at a 3% annual rate in September, the fastest since January, a datapoint he cited to argue inflation still matters. The inflation numbers are being watched closely by policymakers weighing the trade-off between jobs and prices.<\/p>\n


\nLiquidity Moves Add Fuel<\/p>\n

Reports have disclosed that the Fed quietly put more than $13 billion of liquidity into short-term funding, a move some analysts say has helped restore liquidity in money markets and supported risk assets.<\/p>\n

That liquidity boost, together with the pause in Quantitative Tightening, has been flagged by quant desks as one reason bullish momentum returned to crypto.<\/p>\n

Market Reaction<\/p>\n

O\u2019Leary\u2019s take is at odds with the market odds and with several analysts who see easier monetary policy as a tailwind for assets like Bitcoin. He is not alone in warning against reading too much into a single Fed decision, but many traders have already positioned for easing and that positioning has moved prices.<\/p>\n

What Traders Are Watching Now<\/p>\n

Traders say $90,000 is the key line for buyers, while $92,500 is the line sellers must yield for a higher move. A clean climb above $92,500 could point toward $94K and $95K, according to market desk notes. Liquidity flows and official Fed signals this week will likely determine whether those levels hold.<\/p>\n
