🚨 US PPI Comes in HOT — Inflation Not Done Yet
The latest Producer Price Index (PPI) just surprised to the upside, signaling that inflation pressures are still alive beneath the surface.
Higher PPI = rising production costs → potential pass-through to consumers → delayed rate cuts.
This puts the Federal Reserve in a tough spot:
➡️ Cut rates too early = risk reigniting inflation
➡️ Stay tight longer = pressure on equities & risk assets
For crypto, this creates a mixed setup 👇
• Short term: volatility likely 📉
• Long term: stronger narrative for hard assets like Bitcoin as a hedge
Smart money isn’t reacting… it’s positioning. 👀
