MARKETS ON A KNIFE’S EDGE — 2 U.S. BOMBS DROPPING IN 24 HOURS
Global markets are on high alert following two economic "bombs" dropped by the U.S. within the last 24 hours. The first was the Producer Price Index (PPI) report, which revealed unexpected inflationary pressures linked to recent tariffs. The second was the Federal Reserve's Beige Book, showing a slight economic upgrade that might encourage policymakers to keep interest rates "higher for longer." These conflicting signals have left investors questioning whether we are heading toward a growth surge or a new inflationary spiral. The next few hours are critical for Bitcoin and global equities as the market re-prices the risk.
