Ниже ожиданий: инфляция в США замедляется, биткоин реагирует незначительно Translation: Headline: Below Expectations: US Inflation Slows Down, Bitcoin Reacts Slightly

In September, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in the United States rose by 0.3%, compared to a 0.4% increase the month before. On a year-over-year basis, the unadjusted CPI climbed to 3.0% (up from 2.9% in August).

The main contributors to the inflation increase were gasoline prices, which surged by 4.1%, and energy costs, which rose by 1.5% over the month.

The data released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) fell short of analysts’ expectations, with experts forecasting the CPI to be at 3.1%.

The Core CPI for September also proved to be below consensus predictions, recording the same 3.0% compared to the anticipated 3.1%.

The BLS noted that the inflation data was compiled prior to the government funding suspension. Following the release, major U.S. stock indices continued to rise, with the S&P 500 reaching a historic high above $6800, and the NASDAQ 100 gaining over 1% since the beginning of the trading session.

Swap and options markets show nearly complete confidence in a reduction of the Federal Reserve’s key interest rate range to 3.75-4% following the meeting on October 29. The probability of this scenario is estimated at 96.7%.

It is traditionally believed that an increase in liquidity availability positively impacts the prices of risk assets such as Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Following the release of U.S. inflation data, the price of digital gold briefly exceeded $112,000 but retraced during subsequent corrections.

In the last 24 hours, the asset has appreciated by 1.2%, and the overall cryptocurrency market capitalization has increased by 1.9% (CoinGecko).

It is worth noting that Bitcoin and the S&P 500 may have entered a late stage of the bullish phase in the market, according to CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler—Junior.
