Why can markets move before an interest rate decision is announced? 🇿🇦📊

Because markets react to expectations, not only the final decision. Inflation, jobs data and central-bank comments can shift rate expectations before the announcement.

That is why part of the outcome may already be “priced in” before the decision becomes official.

Confidence in a market view does not remove trading risk. 📊

Risk depends on factors such as position size, leverage, volatility and changing market conditions. Even a well-researched view can be affected by unexpected news or sudden market moves.

Managing exposure and having a market opinion are two different things.

One strong market move is not always the beginning of a longer-term trend. 🇿🇦📊

A reaction can happen quickly after data, earnings, policy decisions or breaking news. A trend usually develops over a wider period and can be influenced by rates, growth, liquidity and market sentiment.

Knowing the difference helps put sudden market moves into a wider context.
