INFLATION JUMPED, BUT NO PANIC

🟡 Neutral — inflation is worse, but the market is holding calm

The main change of the day is a sharp rise in annual inflation to 3.29% (from 2.43%), while core inflation also climbed to 2.6% (from 2.47%). This worsens the ground for a near-term easing of Fed policy, but broad anxiety, on the contrary, decreased: the VIX fell to 19.49 (from 21.04), and the dollar is standing still (DXY 120.66 unchanged). Yields barely moved (10-year 4.29% unchanged), meaning the “hit” from the data is so far more in expectations than in prices.

For crypto, the picture is mixed but overall constructive: BTC is holding around $72,828 and is up about 8% for the week, although the daily pace of growth cooled, and volatility ticked up a bit. The key support remains in liquidity: net liquidity has noticeably increased over the week (about +2%), and inflows into BTC ETFs remain at a confident level (about +$358M per day). At the same time, BTC dominance rose to 57.24% and is holding at very high levels over recent months — capital continues to flow into the “core,” and it’s harder for altcoins to catch up.

WHAT TO WATCH

1) The dollar’s reaction to geopolitics and oil: at this level of DXY, any acceleration upward will quickly become a headwind for BTC.
2) The resilience of inflows into BTC ETFs: if flows start to weaken amid higher inflation, the market can quickly shift into a profit-taking mode.
3) The $70,000 zone for BTC: holding above preserves the scenario of continued upside, a break down will increase nervousness amid increased volatility.
