🔥🔥🔥🚀🚀Next Week in Crypto: Key Events to Watch (April 21st - April 27th, 2025) 🗓

--- #UnlockAlert

📊 US Economic Data Release

- April 24 — Initial Jobless Claims

With this week’s retail sales data coming in strong — likely boosted by consumers bringing forward purchases to avoid potential tariff-driven price hikes — traders are now firmly pricing in a pause at the Fed’s next FOMC meeting, according to the CME FedWatch Tool.

Looking ahead, the focus shifts to next week’s Weekly Initial Jobless Claims report. While not usually a major market mover, a lower-than-expected print would point to continued labour market strength, reinforcing the case for fewer rate cuts in 2025 — a scenario that could dampen risk sentiment. On the flip side, an uptick in claims would suggest softening conditions, boosting the likelihood of cuts and offering a bullish tailwind for markets.
