Exactly 🔥 — CPI day always brings fireworks!
If CPI (Consumer Price Index) comes in above 3.1%, it could fuel fears of sticky inflation → markets may drop, USD could strengthen, and gold/crypto might dip short-term.
If it’s below 3.1% (say 2.9% or lower again), markets may rally, USD weakens, and gold, NASDAQ, and crypto could spike.
🕐 In short:
• Actual > Expected (3.1%) → Bearish for risk assets
• Actual < Expected (3.1%) → Bullish for risk assets
Yes — high volatility expected across indices, forex, gold, and BTC.
Would you like me to give a quick price reaction plan (entry zones and key levels) for gold and BTC based on both scenarios?
