CPI Just Came in Hotter Than Expected, and PPI Is Up Next! A Double Test for U.S. Inflation—Can Bitcoin Hold Up?

The U.S. inflation market has been quite lively lately. CPI has just put pressure on the market, and now PPI is getting ready to take the stage. Investors’ wallets may already be starting to tremble.
CPI mainly tracks price changes when consumers buy goods and services, while PPI focuses on price changes when producers sell goods and services. They look at different stages, but both can help the market assess the inflation trend.
If PPI comes in above expectations again, the market may worry that cost pressures on businesses are still being passed through and that inflation isn’t cooling as hoped. In that case, expectations for Fed rate cuts could face further challenges.
That kind of environment isn’t favorable for Bitcoin or U.S. tech stocks, as investors may become less willing to take risks.
But if PPI improves significantly, the market may also view it as a positive sign that inflationary pressures are easing.
Of course, it’s not as simple as saying that a rise in PPI will necessarily lead to a rise in CPI. Profit margins, demand, supply chains, and other factors also play a role.
The question now is: Is inflation getting ready to exit, or does it plan to keep the drama going? #每周来晒 and #美国10月PPI即将出炉 $SPCX
