What impact might U.S. inflation data have on the cryptocurrency market?
If inflation data exceeds expectations, it could put pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. Higher inflation levels mean that interest rates may remain high for a longer period of time.
The next interest rate decision from the Federal Reserve will be announced on October 28, 2026, Wednesday. At the Federal Open Market Committee meeting held from October 27 to 28, the Fed will make decisions regarding interest policy.
This macroeconomic development is closely monitored by investors, as it could have a potential impact on Bitcoin and other risky assets.
