Inflation expected to rise tomorrow. EXPECT VOLATILITY!
#CPIWatch " means traders are waiting for tomorrow’s U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, a major measure of inflation.

CPI YoY compares prices with the same month a year earlier. The post expects headline inflation to rise to 3.6% from 3.4%.

CPI MoM compares prices with the previous month. It is expected at 0.6%, up from 0.4%.

Core CPI excludes volatile food and energy prices, so markets watch it for the underlying inflation trend. The post expects annual core inflation to edge up, while monthly core inflation slows slightly.

The key message is that inflation may be stronger than before. If the actual figures come in above expectations, markets may worry that interest rates could stay higher for longer, which can pressure risk assets such as crypto and stocks. If inflation is lower than expected, sentiment may improve. “Expect volatility” means prices may move sharply around the release because traders quickly adjust positions based on the data.

The figures shown are expectations in the post, not confirmed results.
