📈 Economic Update: Inflation in the U.S. and Its Impact on the Markets
Today, May 13, 2025, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for April. The year-over-year inflation rate stood at 3.2%, slightly below the 3.3% recorded in March, while the core inflation (which excludes food and energy) was at 3.1%, also lower than the 3.2% from the previous month.
These results have been well received by financial markets, as they suggest a moderation in inflationary pressures. In response, the cryptocurrency market showed positive movements:
• Bitcoin (BTC): rose by 2.5%, reaching $105,000.
• Ethereum (ETH): increased by 2%, trading at $3,800.
• Solana (SOL) and Binance Coin (BNB): recorded increases of 3% and 2.8%, respectively.
This behavior reflects the sensitivity of digital assets to macroeconomic indicators and highlights the importance of monetary policy in market performance.
