【Alarm sounded! Unemployment data unexpectedly cold, is Bitcoin about to soar?】
Family, who understands! The recently released unemployment data from the US has caused a stir! The number of first-time unemployment claims soared to 247,000 last week, significantly higher than the market expectation of 235,000, and even the previous value was secretly revised down from 240,000 to 239,000. This wave of data is like throwing a 'smoke bomb' into the market—where's the strong economy that was promised? Where's the cooling off of interest rate cut expectations?
For example: It's like thinking your partner is going to give you a 520 cash gift, but instead they send you a '5.20' and add, 'I'm a bit tight on cash lately'... (Ouch!) When unemployment data falters, the market immediately starts speculating that the Federal Reserve will become 'soft-hearted' and cut rates.
After all, Trump's tariff stick has already made companies shiver, and a wave of layoffs is quietly brewing (look at the data from US banks, more high-income families are receiving relief), even Powell has loosened up and said, 'future employment may be weaker'.
Emotional time: If you ask me, this data is the 'signal gun' for the crypto world! When the unemployment rate rises, assets like gold and Bitcoin, which resist inflation, immediately perk up. Last night, gold rose sharply, and Bitcoin also jumped a bit. But don't rush to go all in! The Federal Reserve is still stubbornly talking about 'inflation risks', and the June interest rate meeting is the main event.
Tonight, the European Central Bank will also announce its interest rate decision. If the ECB goes dovish + US employment continues to decline, under the double blow, the dollar may collapse, and Bitcoin could directly take off! Friends, keep an eye on real-time data, the bottom-fishing opportunity may be right in front of you!
