Tonight at 8:30, US retail data is released📊

Market sentiment is high, expectations are strong.

The key is not how good the data is, but whether it can beat expectations!

Above expectations = bullish | Below expectations = bearish

Consumer confidence = recession expectation barometer

BTC, US stocks, and gold may have a clear short-term direction⚡️

Follow up on market reactions and manage risk well.

Note that even if it is below expectations, as long as it is significantly better than last month, the market reaction may not be too pessimistic.

The focus is on: month-on-month trend + the extent of deviation from expectations.
