🔥 This Week’s Key Economic Events – CPI, Fed Silence & More

Hey traders! 👋

All eyes are on this week’s U.S. CPI inflation data—a major catalyst that could shake the markets. With recent tariff hikes (yep, the Trump-era tariff heat is back), we’re expecting a slight uptick in inflation.

📊 Wednesday, June 11 is the big day:

CPI YoY: Expected at 2.5% (Prev: 2.3%)

Core CPI YoY: Expected at 2.9% (Prev: 2.8%)

What the market really wants to see is a soft bump now, followed by a cooling trend over the next few months. That’s the only scenario that might give the Fed enough confidence to resume interest rate cuts. Until then, it’s all speculation.

🛑 On that note: the Federal Reserve is now in its blackout period. No speeches, no hints, just silence until the June 19 FOMC meeting. That means this CPI data will speak louder than any Fed official could this week.

👀 Two other things to keep your radar on:

• The GENIUS Stablecoin Act is under review in the U.S. Congress—could shake up the crypto-regulation landscape.

• A U.S.–China trade meeting is set for Tuesday in London. Depending on what comes out of it, markets (especially commodities and tech) could react fast.

📅 Thursday, June 12:

Initial Jobless Claims: Est. 242K (Prev: 247K)

PPI & Core PPI: Inflation readings from the producer side—important, but secondary to CPI this week.

Crypto traders, keep your eyes peeled. Macro numbers are steering the ship right now. If inflation surprises to the upside, expect $BTC, $ETH, and $SOL to react accordingly. Lower inflation = bullish case for rate cuts = crypto upside. 🚀
