Family in the crypto circle, the latest hot American employment data has been released! One of the most concerning indicators for us in the crypto world—the number of initial jobless claims in the U.S. last week—has just been announced!
Next, Aidi will explain the data in plain language:
Published value: 221,000 people
Expected value: 226,000 people
Do you understand? The actual number of people applying for unemployment benefits is less than everyone expected! What does this indicate? To put it simply: The U.S. job market is tougher than experts thought!
Why is this data closely related to our crypto trading? Let Aidi explain:
Economic 'thermometer': The number of initial jobless claims is like a 'thermometer' for the U.S. economy. A low number indicates that finding a job is not difficult, the economy is vibrant, and the body is in great shape!
Risk appetite 'indicator': A strong economy gives investors more courage! Everyone is more willing to invest their money in places that might earn a lot but could also be volatile. Can you guess which market fits this characteristic best? That's right, it’s the crypto market we play in!
Short-term positive signal: So, this data is better than expected, which usually counts as a short-term small benefit for us in the crypto circle! It might mean that 'hot money' in the market will be more active, and everyone's risk appetite will increase. Just think, aren't Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) all looking forward to more funds coming in?
Rational perspective, key ahead:
Of course, family, trading cryptocurrencies shouldn't rely on just one data point! Aidi reminds everyone of a few points:
Short-term impact: The impact of this data is usually a short-term emotional push; don’t expect one piece of data to send the market soaring.
The Federal Reserve is watching: The job market is too hot, and the Federal Reserve (U.S. central bank) might think, 'Oh, the economy is so hot, inflation may be hard to control, why not... raise interest rates a bit more?' If interest rate hike expectations rise, it wouldn't be good news for risk assets (including cryptocurrencies). So, we need to keep an eye on the Federal Reserve's attitude moving forward!
Stay tuned: The data next week and the week after are equally important! We need to continuously monitor the trend of the U.S. job market, as well as other key data (like inflation data), so we can more accurately grasp the market pulse.
In summary, this U.S. employment data has given the market a small surprise, which is a positive signal for crypto market sentiment! However, the market is ever-changing, and we need to see opportunities while staying vigilant.
