đš HOT CPI SHOCK: THE FED'S DECEMBER RATE HIKE IS NOW IN FOCUS!
The latest US inflation report has changed the mood across financial markets. And crypto traders are paying attention. $BTC
Here is what happened:
đ OCTOBER US CPI DATA
đŽ Headline CPI: +0.4% (0.3% expected)
đŽ September CPI: +0.6%
đŽ Core CPI: +0.3% for the third consecutive month.
The numbers came in hotter than economists expected, raising concerns that inflation is still not under control.
đ„ IS A DECEMBER FED RATE HIKE NOW PRICED IN?
According to Reuters, updated Fed funds futures pricing on November 11 showed:
âą 85% probability of a 0.25% rate hike.
âą 15% probability of a larger 0.50% hike.
âą Markets have priced out the possibility of a pause.
The Fed's next meeting is scheduled for December 8â9, 2026.
đ WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR CRYPTO?
Higher interest rates can strengthen the US dollar, increase borrowing costs and put pressure on risky assets such as Bitcoin and altcoins.
Bitcoin was trading near $73,712 in Reuters' November 11 Asian-market snapshot.
But here is the important question: Has the market already priced in the expected rate increase?
MY MARKET VIEW
I would remain cautious with highly leveraged crypto positions. The next important signals are US Treasury yields, dollar strength and upcoming inflation data.
A rate hike is not officially confirmed. Market expectations can change before the Fed announces its decision.
đ„ WHAT DO YOU THINK? $BTC
Will Bitcoin recover before the December Fed meeting, or could another rate hike trigger more selling?
