🚨 #PCEMarketWatch | Trump Tariff Shock Hits Crypto Again
Despite PCE inflation data coming in line with expectations (2.5% YoY), Bitcoin and Ethereum dropped sharply — and Trump may be to blame. 👇
📊 PCE Data Recap (April):
Core PCE YoY: ✅ 2.5% (in-line)
Core PCE MoM: ✅ 0.1%
Headline PCE YoY: ❌ 2.1% (vs 2.2% expected)
💡 This should’ve stabilized markets… but didn’t.
💥 Trigger Event: Trump’s China Post
> "CHINA HAS TOTALLY VIOLATED ITS AGREEMENT WITH US." – Trump
🇨🇳 Trump reignites tariff fears with claims China broke trade deal

📉 ETH: -4% 24H
📉 SOL: -5.8% 24H
