Tonight, the most important U.S. macro data drops — and markets are on edge.
At 8:30 AM ET, the U.S. December CPI report is released — a data point powerful enough to ignite a rally or trigger an instant sell-off across stocks and crypto.
📊 What’s expected • YoY CPI (unadjusted): 2.70% (previous: 2.70%)
• MoM CPI (seasonally adjusted): 0.30% forecast
📉 Why this matters This print directly influences the Federal Reserve’s next move:
• Higher-than-expected CPI → inflation fears return → rate cuts delayed → risk assets pressured
• Lower-than-expected CPI → rate-cut expectations surge → crypto & equities catch a bid
This isn’t just another data release — it can set the tone for weeks ahead.
Markets are positioned. Volatility is coming.
Sleep later — CPI comes first.
