Good morning, traders! ☕ Ethereum has slipped back below $1,900 this morning as investors reduce risk ahead of today's biggest catalyst — the US Bureau of Labor Statistics releases the July Consumer Price Index at 8:30 a.m. ET. This single data point could determine whether crypto attempts a real recovery or faces another wave of selling pressure.
ETH is currently eyeing the psychologically important $2,000 level, but needs supportive inflation data to build any real momentum toward it. A cooler-than-expected CPI print would likely ease Fed rate-hike concerns and could send ETH climbing back above $1,900 quickly. A hotter print could do the opposite, pushing prices toward retest lower support zones.
Adding context: two key inflation reports are landing this week specifically to help clarify whether the Fed could raise rates following its two-day meeting in September — so today is really just the opening act of a bigger story playing out over the coming days. 🧠
