Hello everyone, I am financial analyst Xiao Shi.

Today is September 11, 2025, and there are only a few hours left until the CPI data is released. Many investors are watching this data, speculating on the market fluctuations it may bring. However, for long-term investors, the short-term impact of a single data point should not be the main focus.

Looking back at yesterday's analysis on interest rate cuts, we can see that regardless of tonight's CPI data, the likelihood of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates next week is already quite high. The main role of the CPI and non-farm data is to provide a reference for monetary policy decisions, but the current economic indicators have strongly hinted at the necessity for an interest rate cut.

Therefore, tonight's market reaction could take various forms: it may rise directly, or there may be a brief decline to attract short positions, or it may oscillate while waiting for the formal arrival of interest rate cuts. However, for trend traders and medium to long-term investors, these short-term fluctuations are not significant. What truly matters is that after the beginning of the interest rate cut cycle, the entire financial market will welcome a more favorable environment.

At this critical moment, I do not recommend focusing too much on short-term trading. A big market trend is about to arrive, and being obsessed with small fluctuations in short-term thinking may cause investors to miss out on greater opportunities. On the contrary, now is the best time to formulate long-term investment strategies and plan for the future.

As an investor who adheres to spot value investing, my goal is to achieve significant returns in this bull market. Although short-term fluctuations may cause some unease, maintaining confidence in the long-term trend is key to succeeding in this market.

Let us broaden our horizons and not be disturbed by short-term noise. The future financial markets are full of opportunities, and it is important to maintain a clear mind and a firm investment philosophy.
