The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…

The post Vanguard Reverses Crypto ETF Ban, Triggers $200 Billion Market Surge appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. // News Reading time: 2 min Published: Dec 05, 2025 at 15:43 The dramatic surge was attributed to the world’s second-largest asset manager, Vanguard Group, reversing its long-standing ban on trading crypto Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). The cryptocurrency market experienced a massive, unanticipated rally on December 3rd, with Bitcoin (BTC) smashing through the $93,000 level and the total crypto market capitalization adding over $200 billion in value within 36 hours. The “Vanguard Effect” and institutional green light Vanguard, which had previously held a staunch anti-crypto stance, citing it as “speculative” and unfit for long-term portfolios, announced it would now allow its clients to trade various Spot Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and XRP ETFs on its platform. This reversal effectively opened the gates for millions of conservative retail and institutional investors to gain exposure to digital assets through one of the most trusted names in passive investing. The “Vanguard Effect” was immediately amplified by other major financial institutions: Bank of America’s Merrill Lynch followed suit by allowing over 15,000 of its financial advisors to recommend a small (1% to 4%) allocation to crypto ETFs for suitable wealth management clients. BlackRock’s IBIT ETF recorded one of its highest trading volumes to date, crossing the $1 billion mark in a single day. Market mechanics The sudden, unexpected institutional buying pressure, combined with forced buying from short-sellers, triggered the liquidation of over $360 million in leveraged short positions. This short squeeze further accelerated BTC’s price past key resistance levels, driving Ethereum (ETH) above $3,000 and boosting other major altcoins. The news signifies the final collapse of the traditional finance industry’s resistance to crypto, confirming that the asset class is now firmly entrenched in the mainstream investment ecosystem.
