Bitcoin Price Alert: Two Key Inflation Reports Coming This Week

Wednesday: February CPI (8:30 AM ET)

Friday: Core PCE | GDP | JOLTS | Consumer Sentiment

How it Affects Crypto:

CPI Below 2.4% = Rate Cut bets explode = $BTC Pumps
CPI Above 2.4% = hawkish Fed = risk-off = BTC dumps

But the Real Boss is Friday's Core PCE.

Last reading: 3.0%. Forecast: 3.1%

If PCE drops below 3%, crypto gets fuel for a rally.

If PCE stays hot, Fed keeps rates higher for longer. Crypto bleeds.

Also on Radar:

Tue: $ORCL Earnings + Existing Home Sales

Thu: Jobless Claims + $ADBE Earnings

Weak Jobs Data = Economy Slowing = Fed cuts sooner = bullish BTC mid-term

TL;DR

Cool inflation + weak jobs = best case for crypto

Hot inflation + strong jobs = worst case for crypto

Wednesday and Friday will set the tone for Bitcoin's March direction.
