CoinMeta data: According to 10xResearch, the latest Consumer Price Index ( CPI ) has risen year-on-year to 2.6%, higher than the market's expectation of 2.5%, and above the recent low of 2.4%. Oil prices usually affect CPI after about two months, so it is expected that the next CPI data may rise again, possibly reaching a range of 2.7% to 2.9%. Currently, crude oil prices are fluctuating between $90 and $100, which corresponds to an inflation rate of approximately 2.8% to 2.9%. The Producer Price Index ( PPI ) typically reacts to oil prices more quickly than the consumer price index; in August, PPI soared from 4.7% to 5.4%. The market generally expects that the September data, released today (October 15th), will slow down slightly to 5.3%. If oil prices continue to dominate, PPI could rise to 6.0%, which would surprise the market once again. Higher oil prices and a strong dollar are the main macro risks for our moderately bullish outlook. Despite Bitcoin's strong performance, AI trading is still declining.
