Short-Term Liquidity Pressures Mount, But Crypto Setup Intact
Sep 3, 2025
Discussed in today’s video:
- ETH Finds Buyers – ETHBTC found support today, suggesting ETH could resume participating alongside BTC and SOL.
- Macro Setup – Gold continues to front-run a regime where the Fed cuts into a stable economy with solid employment and above-trend inflation.
- Data Check – Manufacturing PMI showed green shoots via new orders and depleted inventories, while JOLTS came in soft but stable with hires down and layoffs steady. The jobs-per-unemployed ratio dipped below 1, a metric likely on the Fed’s radar.
- Liquidity & Seasonality – September seasonality remains weak, but October is historically strong for crypto. TGA refill and Treasury issuance over the coming weeks could be a short-term headwind.
- Catalysts Ahead – Friday’s NFP/unemployment report and potential S&P 500 inclusion for Strategy are the key near-term checkpoints.
