⚡️ US inflation higher than forecast: what does this mean for BTC and the crypto market?
Fresh US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for October has been released, and it came in hotter than analysts expected:
📊 Key figures:
• CPI (monthly): +0.4% MoM (forecast: 0.3% | September: 0.6%)
• Core CPI (core inflation): +0.3% MoM (forecast: 0.2%)
• Annual inflation (YoY): The official annual figure for October is unavailable due to a technical pause in data collection during the 2025 shutdown. The latest available annual benchmark is 3.7% YoY for September
💡 How does this affect crypto?
Core inflation holding at 0.3% reduces the likelihood of a rapid easing of the Fed's monetary policy. A strengthening dollar (DXY) usually creates short-term pressure on risk assets.
What to expect next:
1. Volatility: A local shakeout of highly leveraged futures positions is possible.
2. Focus on the Fed: The market will be closely watching the regulator's rhetoric regarding future interest rate decisions.
Manage your risk, use stop-losses, and don't give in to emotional trading!
What's your outlook for the next move of $BTC — a local pullback or a support break?
