Amid rising geopolitical and economic uncertainty in global financial markets, traders are hedging against the risk of the price falling to $100,000. Trading data shows a surge in demand for put options (downside protection tools that give holders the right to sell at a specific price), particularly in short-term contracts. In options expiring on June 20, the volume of open put contracts at a strike price of $100,000 ranks first, with a put/call ratio of 1.16, highlighting market concerns about a short-term decline. Analysis suggests that the cautious sentiment in the market stems from the highly uncertain environment faced by Federal Reserve policymakers - including tensions in the Middle East and energy price fluctuations, combined with inflation and labor market risks from Trump administration tariff policies. As the Fed is expected to maintain interest rates for the fourth consecutive time on Wednesday, market focus will shift to its latest forecasts on economic growth, unemployment rates, and interest rates.
