Federal Reserve raises interest rates for the first time in three years: 25BP to 3.75%-4.00%, dot plot leans hawkish

This marks the first interest rate hike since July 2023, with 16 officials expecting another hike this year. The conference was only 30 minutes long, where Waller rejected forward guidance, stating "inflation is too high and has persisted for too long". The US 2-year bonds rose 10BP, 10-year bonds returned above 5%, gold dropped over $100 from daily highs, and the dollar broke through the 100 mark.

> Hot comment: Trump said to cut interest rates to 1%, the Federal Reserve raised rates by 25BP, and the White House issued a statement "expressing regret"—this could be 2026's most dignified "Fuck you".

Today's Undercurrent

The Federal Reserve's 25BP interest rate hike, Huawei's early release of the Ascend 960, NVIDIA's adoption of Rust, and memory prices surging 5-7 times—all these events seem independent but actually point towards the same clue: a full-blown global computing power inflation is exploding.

The Federal Reserve's rate hike is intended to suppress inflation, but one of the drivers of inflation is precisely the overflow of demand for chips, memory, and electricity brought about by the AI infrastructure wave. Huawei advanced the chip release by a quarter, NVIDIA lowered the GPU programming threshold to a level where Rust developers can easily start, SK Hynix and Samsung are fully shifting production capacity to HBM, and Micron says there will be no supply-demand balance before 2028—everyone is racing for the same thing: computing power and its upstream resources.

While the interest rate hike attempts to cool demand, the logic of the AI arms race is "fall behind and be eliminated", and interest rates' constraints on tech giants and sovereign nations are becoming ineffective. This is the true backdrop of Waller rejecting forward guidance and Trump's angry call for rate cuts: the Federal Reserve is confronting a new variable that it cannot price.
