Moore will currently fill a vacancy on the Federal Reserve Board in the short term, but Ashworth said he may be renominated, especially if he leans towards the rate cuts strongly supported by Trump. This move is "a welcome surprise."

 analysts at Rothschild Asset Management Company stated in a report that the valuation of the US stock market is too high and has not priced in the risk of geopolitical conflicts re-emerging.

Francesco Pesole, an economist at the Dutch International Group, stated in a report that the US dollar only weakened slightly after Trump nominated Stephen Moore to fill the vacancy on the Federal Reserve Board. Moore has previously criticized the Fed on interest rate issues and called for a comprehensive reform of the Fed. He will temporarily fill this position until his term expires in January next year.

Compared to another potential candidate Kevin Hassett, his stance on interest rate issues is more moderate.

price of Bitcoin has risen slightly, but it is still fluctuating within a range before the announcement of the Federal Reserve interest rate decision. It is expected that the Federal Reserve will maintain interest rates unchanged. Pepperstone strategist Michael Brown said that policymakers do not want to "disrupt the status quo," and Federal Reserve Chairman Powell may reiterate that the Federal Reserve is not in a hurry to further cut interest rates. He said that due to President Trump's tariff policy, the latest economic forecasts may increase inflation expectations and lower growth forecasts. However, he said that the latest interest rate forecasts should remain basically unchanged. "From the market's perspective, this should not have too much impact on the market."

QCP Capital's latest analysis pointed out that the biggest near-term risk is the upcoming deadline of April 2, when it is expected that Trump will introduce a new round of reciprocal tariffs. This remains the most direct resistance faced by risk assets. Tonight's FOMC meeting of the Federal Reserve is likely to keep interest rates unchanged. However, QCP Capital will closely monitor any dovish shift, especially regarding changes in growth and inflation expectations. Given that the impact of tariffs takes months to ripple through the economy, it is expected that the Fed will maintain a "wait-and-see" mode. Although the tariff decision on April 2 has already been hinted at, it still remains a key uncertainty factor.

 Lu Lei, Deputy Governor of the People's Bank of China, revealed at the 14th China Payment and Clearing Forum that important progress has been made in the interconnection of cross-border QR code payments. Today, Alipay and Ant International under the Ant Group have become the first batch of institutions to participate in the pilot operation of cross-border QR code unified gateway business. Lu Lei emphasized that the systemic risk in the current payment industry is increasing.

Some overseas illegal platforms transfer funds through virtual currencies, underground banks, and other channels, forming a "resonance" of risks domestically and internationally, posing challenges to China's foreign exchange management and financial security.
