#CryptoCPIWatch The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is set to release its February Consumer Price Index (CPI) report on Wednesday at 12:30 GMT, offering a critical insight into inflation trends. Market analysts anticipate a slight drop in inflation, which could influence Federal Reserve policy, the US dollar, and risk assets like cryptocurrencies.

The headline CPI inflation rate is expected to come in at 2.9% year-over-year (YoY), down from 3.0% in January, marking the first dual decline in core and headline inflation since July 2024. The core CPI inflation rate, which excludes food and energy, is projected to fall to 3.2% from 3.3%.
