🔥🔥🔥US inflation data (08/2025)
📊 Key figures:
Core CPI (MoM & YoY): 0.3% and 3.1% → as expected, stable ✅
Headline CPI (MoM & YoY): 0.4% and 2.9% → higher than expected ⚠️
👉 This means: core inflation has not increased, but overall inflation is still rising due to energy & food prices.
⚠️Bad news: Overall inflation increases → the market is worried that the Fed may not rush to lower interest rates.
⚠️Good news: Core inflation is stable → the Fed may view this pressure as temporary, no need for strong tightening yet.
Forecast: The Fed is likely to keep current interest rates for a while to observe.
₿ Impact on Bitcoin
📈 If the market believes the Fed will not rush to raise rates, BTC may benefit as a “risk asset” in anticipation of cheaper money.
📉 But the higher-than-expected CPI data slows down the “risk-on” sentiment → BTC may experience significant volatility, easily subject to short-term profit-taking.
Short term: BTC is likely to fluctuate according to interest rate expectations → may sideway or experience strong oscillations.
Medium/long term: Persistent inflation reinforces the argument that BTC is “digital gold” → supports the accumulation trend.
