# My Trading Plan for the Weekend

Currently, international diplomats are intensely mediating in the Middle East: China and France are calling for ceasefire talks, Russia and Iran continue consultations, and Putin is holding international calls to coordinate positions. Regarding monetary policy, the Federal Reserve maintains interest rates at 3.5%-3.75% unchanged, with rate cut expectations delayed to 2027; the ECB remains on hold and raises inflation expectations to 2.6% due to energy price pressures; East Asia LPR has remained flat for ten consecutive months. The Middle East situation remains tense, with US-Israel airstrikes on Iran escalating—Israel claims operations will continue for a week, the US is reinforcing troops in the Middle East and considering tactical de-escalation, energy facilities across the Gulf region are affected, and maritime safety alerts have been triggered. On the global battlefield, Russia-Ukraine drone attrition warfare is intensifying, and Sudan's humanitarian crisis is worsening. The overall digital currency market is experiencing volatility, with Bitcoin consolidating in a narrow range near $70,000.
