📊 U.S. initial jobless claims exceed expectations—are hopes for rate cuts back?
Initial jobless claims rose to 200k in the latest week, above expectations of 194k, showing signs of a slight cooling in the labor market.
But the thing is, 200k is still historically low. 👀
📉 Optimists: The labor market is starting to cool, which may ease pressure on the Fed to keep rates high.
📈 Cautious observers: CPI just came in hotter than expected, inflationary pressure remains, and one week of employment data is not enough to change the policy outlook.
With a cooling labor market and stubbornly high inflation emerging at the same time, which signal will the Fed focus on next?
💬 If employment continues to weaken but inflation stays high, would you be more bullish on a BTC and U.S. stock rebound, or choose to keep waiting?
