✨ CPI will be revealed — are the markets ready?
🔹 All eyes are on the US September CPI report, due today at 8:30 AM ET. This is the final inflation print before the Fed's October 27-28 policy meeting, making it a key input for the rate decision.
📊 The data on the table:
🔹 Headline CPI is expected to rise from 3.4% to around 3.6%-3.7% year-over-year, driven largely by record September gasoline prices.
🔹 Core CPI (ex-food & energy) is forecast to stay near 2.4%-2.5% annually, with a monthly increase of about 0.2%.
🔹 The headline jump is widely anticipated; the market reaction will hinge on core, which strips out volatile energy components and gives a cleaner read on underlying price pressures.
🔹 Fed funds futures currently assign roughly an 80% probability of a rate hold at the October meeting, with about a 20% probability of a hike.
⚖️ Structural perspective:
From a dialectical and long-term perspective, this CPI print is a structural test of whether inflation is broadening beyond energy. A core reading at or above 0.3% could revive tightening expectations and pressure risk assets. A softer core near 0.2% would support the view that price pressures remain contained, easing the rate path narrative.
💬 On my radar:
I'm staying in watch mode for now, observing how the data settles before making any decisions. I'm keeping a close eye on BTC, XRP, LINK, AVAX, and Silver — watching the key levels and how capital flows respond to the print.
💬 When the CPI data lands, do you prioritize the headline or the core reading in your assessment? 👇
