ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, the inflation rate in the United States rose to 2.7% in November, a figure that meets economists' expectations and is higher than October's 2.6% level. The data highlights concerns about sticky inflation following the rise in inflation in October.There is widespread expectation that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 25 basis points for the third consecutive time next week, but the pace of rate cuts next year is less certain, as the Fed is striving to achieve its dual mandate of keeping inflation close to 2% and maintaining a healthy labor market. As interest rates reach a more "neutral" level—high enough to curb inflation but low enough to protect the labor market—officials have discussed slowing the pace of rate cuts. They noted that if actions are taken too quickly, inflation may remain above the 2% target, but acting too slowly could lead to a sharp rise in unemployment.

ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, "The decision to cut interest rates is an acknowledgment of the growing confidence that the inflation rate is likely to reach the Federal Reserve's 2% target—this confidence is partly based on signs that the labor market and product market have been tending toward balance in recent months," said Kansas City Fed President George in remarks prepared for a speech to the Omaha Chamber of Commerce.He stated that while the progress toward returning to the 2% target means that now is an appropriate time to cut rates, "how much further rates will decline or what they will ultimately settle at remains to be seen." On the current issue of federal government spending, George indicated that because the Federal Reserve will fulfill its responsibility to keep inflation at the established 2% target, large fiscal deficits will not trigger inflation.However, this may mean that "interest rates will remain elevated for an extended period," George said, which is why the Federal Reserve must maintain its independence when formulating monetary policy.

ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, the pace of U.S. inflation slowdown seems to have lost momentum, which may raise questions about how aggressively the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates early next year. The market expects the U.S. CPI index for October to rise by 0.2% month-on-month, with some on Wall Street predicting a rise of 0.3%, which would match the largest increase in the past six months. Meanwhile, the year-on-year growth rate may rise from 2.4% to 2.6%, marking the first increase in eight months.However, even if the CPI inflation data for October is strong, Wall Street still expects the Federal Reserve to cut rates again at its last meeting of the year in December. But January of next year will be when doubts begin to intensify.

ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, the JPMorgan market team believes that inflation data is more likely to show signs of warming rather than cooling. Nevertheless, they think that this week's hotter data is unlikely to derail the risk appetite tone, and investors are also unlikely to fixate on a single data point, as there is one more CPI data release before the December Federal Reserve meeting.However, the team reminds investors that Powell has shifted the Federal Reserve's focus from the labor market to weighing the dual mandate of employment and inflation. "If CPI and even retail sales data show a stronger economic growth trajectory while also stimulating inflation, then we need to pay attention to what might happen in the future."In JPMorgan's view, investors are unlikely to shift to a cautious portfolio stance until they see the overall CPI year-on-year reaching 3.5% (which is a credible threat to the Federal Reserve). They believe that the Federal Reserve will only take tightening action if the inflation rate returns to or exceeds 4%.

ChainCatcher news, 10x Research stated in its report that although the Federal Reserve's statement maintained flexibility and did not explicitly indicate a rate cut in September, Chairman Powell's comments during the subsequent Q&A session hinted at the possibility of a rate cut, depending on the expected decline in inflation.Previously, Powell indicated that the Federal Reserve would only begin to cut rates when multiple rate cuts were sufficiently clear. If the Federal Reserve continues to cut rates in September, there may be several more cuts, providing substantial stimulus to the financial markets, assuming the economy remains stable.According to its model, the inflation report set to be released on August 14 is expected to show the inflation rate dropping below 3.0%.

ChainCatcher message, 10x Research released a report stating that, based on historical analysis, Bitcoin's returns tend to remain flat in August and decline in September. However, the "tailwinds" from U.S. interest rate policy, decreasing inflation rates, and the election schedule may buffer the downward pressure from the $1 billion token unlock in August.While it is expected that Bitcoin will eventually break through, it is likely that Bitcoin will need "macro" assistance, namely anticipated rate cuts from the Federal Reserve or a further decline in inflation. Traders must watch Bitcoin closely as prices approach the upper range. The FOMC meeting on July 31 and the U.S. CPI report on August 14 will be crucial.
