⏳ PPI Drops in 6 Hours – Brace for Volatility!

The U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) for August is about to release at 6:00 PM IST, and markets are already on edge. Last month, PPI jumped +0.9%, marking the sharpest increase in three years. Expectations for August are much lower, around +0.3%, hinting at a potential slowdown in inflation pressures.

Traders are pricing in the Fed’s next moves ahead of the September 17 FOMC meeting: a 25 bps rate cut at 92% probability, with only an 8% chance of a larger 50 bps cut. This data could swing market sentiment dramatically, impacting stocks, crypto, and forex alike.

Expect sudden spikes in volatility as investors react. A higher-than-expected PPI could boost the dollar and shake risk assets, while a softer reading might push markets higher, fueling relief rallies.

For traders and crypto enthusiasts, this is the moment to stay alert, plan positions, and watch for opportunities. Timing and awareness will be key—don’t get caught off guard!
