#美国PPI同比升至6.3% U.S. PPI rose to 6.3% year over year in September, confirming persistent inflation; crypto markets should watch for macroeconomic pressure
The latest data from the U.S. Department of Labor show that the Producer Price Index (PPI) rose 6.3% year over year in September and 1.3% month over month. Core PPI also exceeded market expectations. A rebound in upstream inflationary pressure has raised expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates high or raise them further, supporting Treasury yields and the U.S. dollar index while weighing on risk assets across the board.
For crypto markets, risk assets such as BTC and ETH are highly sensitive to changes in interest rate expectations. If macroeconomic pressure persists, short-term volatility could intensify, with highly leveraged contracts and large-cap altcoins especially vulnerable to bouts of cascading liquidations.
The market’s central focus has shifted from “inflation cooling” to whether “inflation is picking up again” and whether “the Fed will take a more hawkish stance.” Until the data clearly show inflation cooling, macroeconomic factors may continue to weigh on crypto markets.
At this stage, watch out for sharp volatility around data releases, reduce exposure to high leverage, avoid taking large positions around key data announcements, and manage positions carefully.
