FOMC Examines CPI, PPI Data Amid Market Volatility
Bitcoin and Ethereum markets anticipated volatility this week with the Federal Reserve’s FOMC reviewing CPI and PPI data to decide on future monetary policy.
The FOMC evaluation of CPI and PPI data influences monetary policy and guides market expectations.
The Federal Reserve’s FOMC is focusing on upcoming CPI releases to assess U.S. monetary policy. This assessment is pivotal as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) experience varied reactions. The Bureau of Labor Statistics has scheduled the CPI release for July 15 and PPI for July 16. The market’s focus remains on how these indicators impact crypto assets.
Institutional analysts are observing the data’s influence on major cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH. BTC showed resilience, bouncing back after a recent dip, while ETH faced downward pressure amidst heightened volatility. Both altcoins and stablecoins are gaining traction with increased spot buying evident, especially in TAO and SOL. The U.S. dollar’s outlook, affected by new fiscal policies, contributes to increased digital asset inflows.
BTC’s historical trends align with macroeconomic drivers, and CPI surprises consistently influence its performance. The crypto sector anticipates broader implications from inflation data, with market sentiment adapting swiftly.
Jianing Wu from Galaxy Digital remarked, “BTC briefly dipped below $100,000 mid-month but rebounded strongly into month-end… ETH underperformed major peers, falling 2.41% on elevated volatility. The June CPI print marked a second downside surprise, supporting the view that inflation is cooling. The Fed left rates unchanged at its June FOMC meeting for the fourth straight time, citing a need for further clarity on inflation and labor trends.”
Institutional commentary highlights the macroeconomic regime, influencing trading strategies and asset flows. Meanwhile, potential regulatory shifts loom, with historical data suggesting changing dynamics based on inflation outcomes.
