Tonight's US CPI Data Expectations and Impact on the Cryptocurrency Market
1. CPI Data Expectations - Overall CPI: - Year-on-year expected to drop from 2.8% to 2.6% (if realized, this would be the lowest since August 2024); - Month-on-month expected at 0.1%, mainly due to a decline in energy prices. - Core CPI (excluding energy and food): - Year-on-year expected at 3.0% (previous value 3.1%), month-on-month expected at 0.3%, reflecting a rebound in commodity prices (such as clothing and electronics) and resilience in service sector inflation.
2. Impact on the Cryptocurrency Market - If the data is below expectations (year-on-year ≤ 2.5%): - Positive: Expectations for a Fed rate cut may rise, Bitcoin could break the resistance level of $83,500, driving ETH and altcoins to follow. - If the data is above expectations (year-on-year ≥ 2.8%): - Negative: Expectations for a rate cut may cool, Bitcoin might retrace to the support level of $75,000.
3. Comprehensive Analysis - Likely neutral to slightly positive: The current market has partially digested the optimistic sentiment of tariff suspension (90 days), and if the CPI meets expectations or slightly declines, short-term fluctuations may continue to rise, but one should be cautious of the volatility risks brought by core inflation resilience. - On-chain signals: Binance's Bitcoin reserves surged (an increase of 22,106 BTC in 12 days), which may indicate that institutional entry or selling risks coexist, requiring judgement based on data results.
