U.S. inflation data for December is slated for release tomorrow at 8:30 a.m. EST. November’s data pokazala inflation was 7.1%, below estimates of 7.3%, which may result in lower interest rate hikes by the U.S. Federal Reserve.
Positive sentiment in crypto markets over the past few days has been supported by Friday’s U.S. jobs data, said Ryan Shea, crypto economist at Trakx. The jobs report was important “as it raised hopes that in the absence of second-round effects — inflation begets more inflation due to higher wage costs — the Fed will be able to moderate or even bring to an end its tightening cycle and achieve a soft-landing: a positive outcome for risk assets.”
“Consensus forecasts for December’s inflation data show a further decline in the year-on-year rate of inflation both on headline and core, which would be entirely consistent with this outlook,” he told The Block before adding that, “having already moved in a mildly bullish direction, the crypto market will be more sensitive to a higher inflation out-turn than a lower inflation out-turn.”
