#usaugustppiriseslessthanexpected 🚨 The US Producer Price Index (August) was not cooler than expected: here’s what the market missed 🚨 The screen lit up, traders paused, and for a moment it seemed like the inflation story might finally cool down. Then the details came in, and the picture became much less comforting. The US Producer Price Index rose 0.4% month over month in August, in line with expectations, while the annual reading accelerated to 5.4%, above the expected 5.3%. The headline hides an important split. The core Producer Price Index, excluding food and energy, rose by just 0.2% month over month—lower than the expected 0.3%. But energy prices jumped: diesel prices surged sharply and pushed producers’ costs higher. My take: this is not a clear win for inflation. It suggests underlying pressure may ease in some areas, while energy and selected services continue to create friction. For cryptocurrencies, the Fed’s reaction matters more than the Producer Price Index headline itself. Higher inflation pressure can keep rate expectations pinned within tight limits, which may limit liquidity flowing into high-risk assets. The market is now closely watching the upcoming Consumer Price Index report to get confirmation. Please follow up #Inflation #Crypto #GrowWithSAC $VTHO $0G $DASH #USAugustPPIRisesLessThanExpected

$BTC Inflation-leading indicators cool off US August PPI comes in below expectations Rate-cut expectations start heating up in the market In the past two days, US inflation has given the market another mix of half-good, half-bad data August PPI rises 0.4% month over month —exactly in line with market expectations Year over year, it rises 5.4% —actually a touch higher than the expected 5.3% So strictly speaking, we can’t say the PPI is “below expectations” In simple terms, PPI reflects the costs businesses pay for upstream inputs and the prices they get at the factory gate. When upstream price pressures ease, the inflation pressure that later filters through to consumers’ spending will also lessen This time, core PPI missed expectations which suggests that besides energy, price-raising momentum from the business side is slowing and there are signs inflation is cooling The market immediately started to trade on this As inflation pressures ease, the Fed will likely have even more confidence to cut rates But right now, the key factor is the oil price In August, energy prices rose 4.2% with diesel prices surging even more—up 24.1% That conflict in the Middle East has already started to make its way from the headlines into US companies’ cost spreadsheets So now, US inflation is a bit like this: Core inflation wants to come down, but the oil price keeps coming out to cause trouble 😂 That’s also why the market is still deeply divided right now over whether the Fed’s next step is to hike rates or keep interest rates unchanged And don’t forget, tomorrow there’s the US August CPI PPI is just the appetizer— CPI is the real main course If CPI also clearly cools, the market may start trading rate cuts/easing again But if CPI continues to be pulled upward by oil prices… then it gets complicated US Treasury yields, the dollar, BTC, and US stocks may have to ride another roller coaster together And if CPI is also lifted by oil prices, then the Big Pie will still have to fall straight toward 76,000 For now, all eyes are on tomorrow’s CPI which matters far more than today’s PPI {future}(BTCUSDT) #usaugustppiriseslessthanexpected

Inflation-leading indicators cool off
US August PPI comes in below expectations
Rate-cut expectations start heating up in the market

In the past two days, US inflation
has given the market another mix of half-good, half-bad data

August PPI rises 0.4% month over month
—exactly in line with market expectations
Year over year, it rises 5.4%
—actually a touch higher than the expected 5.3%

So strictly speaking,
we can’t say the PPI is “below expectations”

In simple terms,
PPI reflects the costs businesses pay for upstream inputs and the prices they get at the factory gate.
When upstream price pressures ease,
the inflation pressure that later filters through to consumers’ spending will also lessen

This time, core PPI missed expectations
which suggests that
besides energy,
price-raising momentum from the business side is slowing
and there are signs inflation is cooling

The market immediately started to trade on this
As inflation pressures ease,
the Fed will likely have even more confidence to cut rates

But right now, the key factor is the oil price
In August, energy prices rose 4.2%
with diesel prices surging even more—up 24.1%
That conflict in the Middle East
has already started to make its way from the headlines
into US companies’ cost spreadsheets

So now, US inflation is a bit like this:
Core inflation wants to come down,
but the oil price keeps coming out to cause trouble 😂
That’s also why the market is still deeply divided right now
over whether the Fed’s next step is to hike rates
or keep interest rates unchanged

And don’t forget,
tomorrow there’s the US August CPI
PPI is just the appetizer—
CPI is the real main course

If CPI also clearly cools,
the market may start trading rate cuts/easing again

But if CPI continues to be pulled upward by oil prices…
then it gets complicated
US Treasury yields, the dollar, BTC, and US stocks
may have to ride another roller coaster together
And if CPI is also lifted by oil prices,
then the Big Pie will still have to fall
straight toward 76,000

For now, all eyes are on tomorrow’s CPI
which matters far more than today’s PPI

#usaugustppiriseslessthanexpected Good news, bulls! US August PPI rises less than expected! 🎉 Well, kind of. The annual rate hit 5.4%, but the month-on-month core inflation pressure is actually cooling down faster than your expired limit orders. How does this affect the market? Less inflation pressure means Uncle Warsh can finally breathe and maybe, just maybe, look more dovish on rate cuts. The market loves a relaxed Fed! 🚀 What should traders do? 1️⃣ Keep a close eye on the upcoming CPI data for the ultimate confirmation. 2️⃣ Stay calm and don't overleverage your bags. 3️⃣ Lock in your registration perks!

Here's what happened when the August PPI print came in softer than expected. Traders piled in chasing the bounce, only to watch entries get underwater as the reaction faded. That post-news FOMO without an exit plan is how a lot of capital gets lost in this market. The number showed producer prices rising less than forecasts, which initially looked supportive for crypto. Names like $DOT and $STX saw inflows while Fear and Greed sat at 68. The bid was real but short-lived. What most people missed was the year-over-year figure still climbing and the fact that one cooler print does not change the broader inflation picture. Some smart money rotated toward $USDT instead of adding risk. These data dumps often produce a headline pump that gets sold once the details sink in. The warning here is treating a single release as a regime shift. In greed conditions the bigger risk is getting caught overextended when the next number, like jobs claims, fails to confirm. Where do you think this goes from here? #USAugustPPIRisesLessThanExpected #USAugustPPIYoYRisesTo5 #USContinuingJoblessClaims1

#USAugustPPIRisesLessThanExpected Core PPI (ex-food & energy) rose 0.2% MoM in August, below the 0.3% forecast — signaling easing pipeline pressure. Headline PPI rose 0.4%, matching estimates, but annual PPI hit 5.4% (vs 5.3% expected), driven by surging energy costs — diesel alone jumped 24% for the month. The mixed print lands days before the Fed's Sept 15-16 FOMC meeting. Softer core inflation supports a dovish case, but hot headline numbers (oil near $100/barrel) could keep the Fed cautious. Today's CPI release is the next key data point. Cooling core inflation is typically a tailwind for risk assets like $BTC and $ETH if it boosts rate-cut odds — but sticky energy-driven headline inflation is a wildcard. Rate cut in September, or does energy inflation force a hold? #Fed #macroeconomic

The **August PPI in the US** rose less than expected, which in theory should ease inflationary pressure and give breathing room to risk markets, including crypto. But the reaction was tepid: Bitcoin bounced from 76.4K to 79.6K—yes, but without breaking real resistance. Why does the PPI matter? It’s the producer price index: what businesses pay for inputs. If it rises less, the Fed has less of an excuse to raise rates. But the market was already expecting this: the **10-year Treasury yield** hit the highest level since November 2023, which tightens financial conditions anyway. At the same time, the **SEC approved Nasdaq’s rule for the Texas Commodity Trust**, which could open the door to more regulated products. That’s bullish in the medium term, but it doesn’t move the price today. The tension is that **four of six timeframes remain bearish** in Bitcoin (daily, weekly, yearly, 4H), and the rebound happens after sweeping liquidity at prior lows and highs. That smells like a bullish trap (upthrust) until proven otherwise. **Do you think a lower PPI is enough to change the structure, or is it just macro noise the price already priced in?** Share your take in the comments. #USAugustPPIRisesLessThanExpected

Crypto Market Is Waiting for the Next Trigger Crypto is moving into a high-volatility window, and I think confirmation is more important than prediction right now. Bitcoin has been consolidating around the $78K area while traders wait for the latest U.S. inflation data and the Federal Reserve's next decision. The biggest pressure point is inflation. August PPI showed producer prices up 5.4% year over year, while oil has moved above $100. That combination keeps pressure on rate expectations and can reduce appetite for risk assets such as crypto. The next major catalyst is U.S. CPI. Markets are watching the data closely because it could influence expectations for the September 15–16 Fed meeting. Current rate-hike probabilities are market pricing, not a confirmed Fed decision. There is also an interesting long-term development for crypto infrastructure: Nasdaq announced a $100M investment in Kraken's parent company Payward to deepen work around infrastructure for tokenized equities. I see this as a positive signal for blockchain-based financial infrastructure, although it isn't an immediate BTC buy signal. For ZEC, the short-term chart remains volatile, but the fundamental story hasn't disappeared. The NU7 coinholder vote is scheduled to close on September 14 at 19:00 UTC. My approach now: BTC first → macro reaction → then altcoins. I don't want to chase a sharp red candle or use excessive leverage before a major economic release. If BTC stabilizes and starts reclaiming resistance, I’ll become more interested in altcoin setups. If BTC loses support and macro data creates another risk-off reaction, protecting capital becomes the priority. The market can give us an opportunity after the move. We don't need to guess the move before it happens.$ZEC #USAugustPPIRisesLessThanExpected {future}(ZECUSDT) {future}(BTCUSDT) {future}(BNBUSDT)

​#usaugustppiriseslessthanexpected ​📉 Core PPI Comes in Cooler Than Expected! What It Means for Crypto ​The US August Producer Price Index (PPI) data is officially out, and the details reveal an interesting setup for the market. ​Headline Inflation: The overall PPI increased by 0.4% in August, which pushed the year-over-year wholesale inflation rate to 5.4%. ​The Energy Factor: This headline jump was significantly driven by energy costs; final-demand energy prices jumped 4.2% during the month, largely due to a massive 24.1% surge in diesel prices. ​Core PPI Beats Expectations: The most critical metric for markets is the Core PPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices. This metric increased by only 0.2% in August. ​Beating Estimates: Economists had actually anticipated a 0.3% increase, meaning the core reading officially came in lower than expected. ​Why it matters for the market: This cooler core inflation reading is a vital piece of data for the Federal Reserve as they head into their policy meeting next week. Easing underlying inflation pressure typically translates to a better macroeconomic environment for risk-on assets like crypto. ​How are you positioning yourself ahead of the Fed meeting?

​📉 Core PPI Comes in Cooler Than Expected! What It Means for Crypto

​The US August Producer Price Index (PPI) data is officially out, and the details reveal an interesting setup for the market.

​Headline Inflation: The overall PPI increased by 0.4% in August, which pushed the year-over-year wholesale inflation rate to 5.4%.

​The Energy Factor: This headline jump was significantly driven by energy costs; final-demand energy prices jumped 4.2% during the month, largely due to a massive 24.1% surge in diesel prices.

​Core PPI Beats Expectations: The most critical metric for markets is the Core PPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices. This metric increased by only 0.2% in August.

​Beating Estimates: Economists had actually anticipated a 0.3% increase, meaning the core reading officially came in lower than expected.

​Why it matters for the market:

This cooler core inflation reading is a vital piece of data for the Federal Reserve as they head into their policy meeting next week. Easing underlying inflation pressure typically translates to a better macroeconomic environment for risk-on assets like crypto.

#USAugustPPIRisesLessThanExpected 🚨 U.S. AUGUST PPI DATA IS OUT — MARKETS REACT 🇺🇸📊 The latest U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) report delivered a mixed inflation signal for markets. 📌 August PPI: • Monthly PPI: +0.4% • Forecast: +0.4% • Annual PPI: +5.4% • Annual forecast: +5.3% • Core measures showed somewhat softer price pressure The headline monthly figure came in exactly as expected, but the annual inflation rate was slightly hotter than economists had forecast. 🔥 Why does this matter for crypto? PPI is closely watched because persistent producer-price pressure can influence expectations for Federal Reserve policy. Higher inflation could keep interest-rate uncertainty elevated, potentially affecting liquidity, the U.S. dollar, Treasury yields, stocks and risk assets such as Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. For crypto traders, the key question now is whether upcoming inflation data confirms that price pressures are cooling or remain stubbornly elevated. ⚠️ This is market news and economic context, not financial advice.

#USAugustPPIRisesLessThanExpected PPI didn’t give the Fed an easy answer. It gave the market a dilemma. U.S. August PPI rose 0.4% month-on-month, exactly in line with expectations, while core PPI was softer at 0.2%. At first glance, that sounds like relief. But the deeper picture is less comfortable: annual producer inflation accelerated to 5.4%, with energy costs becoming a major pressure point. For me, the important number is not the headline. It is what happens next. CPI arrives tomorrow, and that could reshape the entire rate narrative before the Fed meets on September 15–16, with the decision due on September 16. Markets are already shifting their expectations, with rate-hike odds rising sharply after PPI. If CPI confirms sticky inflation, September may become less about rate cuts and more about how long restrictive policy must survive.
