1. U.S. Consumer Sentiment drops to 50.8 (vs 53.1 forecast)

    Inflation Expectations jump to 7.3% (up from 6.5%)

    Confidence is falling, fear of inflation is rising.

    Short term volatility likely. If the Fed gets hawkish, pressure may build.
    But in uncertain times, crypto can also act as a hedge.

    The road ahead? High risk, high alert.
