📉 Decrease in inflation in the US — a signal for the Fed to ease policy?
Yesterday, fresh data on CPI (consumer inflation in the US) was released, and it turned out better than expected:
✅ Actual CPI — 2.8%
📉 Forecast — 2.9%
📊 Previous value — 3.0%
What does this mean for the market?
🔥 The Fed may soften its rhetoric and accelerate the transition from tight monetary policy (QT) to loose (QI).
📌 Why is this important?
1️⃣ A decrease in inflation lowers the likelihood of maintaining high rates further.
2️⃣ Canada has already lowered its rate from 3% to 2.75% — a hint at future decisions by the Fed.
3️⃣ The Fed may start a rate-cutting cycle on March 20 or May 7.
Forecast:
🔹 In 2025, we may see 3-4 rate cuts instead of the stated 2.
🔹 The rate may drop from 4.5% to 3.5-2.5%.
🔹 In April-May, a transition from QT to QI is possible, which will lead to increased liquidity and support for the markets.
🚀 Conclusion:
A decrease in inflation = a softer Fed policy = new liquidity = positive for the crypto market!
