#CryptoCPIWatch

CPI (Consumer Price Index) — a key indicator of inflation that reflects the change in the cost of a consumer basket of goods and services. Investors closely monitor this data because:

• Low CPI (below expectations) → may prompt the Fed to lower rates → the dollar weakens → cryptocurrencies rise. 

• High CPI (above expectations) → the Fed may keep rates high → the dollar strengthens → the crypto market declines.
