According to BlockBeats, the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Inspector General has announced the initiation of a review to assess the challenges faced by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) in collecting and reporting economic data. The Inspector General's office highlighted that the BLS had previously declared a reduction in data collection for two critical inflation indicators in the U.S. economy: the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the Producer Price Index (PPI). Additionally, the BLS recently made significant downward revisions to the estimated number of new jobs in its monthly Employment Situation Report. The review will focus on the challenges and potential optimization strategies related to collecting PPI and CPI data, as well as the collection and reporting of monthly employment data, including data revisions.#USLaborDepartment #OfficeOfInspectorGeneral #BLS #BureauOfLaborStatistics #CPI #PPI #inflationdata #employmentdata #EmploymentSituationReport #datacollection #datarevision #economicdata #datachallenges

🚀 Cryptocurrency Investment Products See Renewed Inflows Amid Inflation Data
#cryptocurrency #investment #inflationdata #cryptoinflows #cryptoETPs #bitcoin #ether #altcoins #solana #XRP #USinflation #CPI #monetarypolicy #ETP #cryptoETF #leveragedETP #Fedratecuts #assetsundermanagement #CoinShares #Cointelegraph #BTC #ETH #SOL
According to Cointelegraph, cryptocurrency investment products experienced a resurgence in investor interest last week, driven by improved confidence following lower-than-expected U.S. inflation data. Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) recorded $921 million in inflows, effectively reversing the $513 million in outflows from the previous week, as reported by CoinShares on Monday.
The primary catalyst for this positive trend in the crypto fund market was the renewed optimism regarding potential U.S. interest rate cuts, supported by the unexpectedly low Consumer Price Index (CPI) data released on Friday. James Butterfill, CoinShares’ head of research, noted that the ongoing U.S. government shutdown has left investors with limited guidance on the direction of U.S. monetary policy. However, the CPI data has rekindled expectations for further rate reductions.
Bitcoin (BTC) led the inflows, recovering nearly all of the losses from the previous week with $931 million in inflows. In contrast, Ether (ETH) experienced outflows for the first time in five weeks, totaling $169 million, with consistent daily outflows throughout the week. Despite this, 2x leveraged ETPs remain popular, according to Butterfill.
Other altcoin ETPs, such as Solana (SOL) and XRP (XRP), experienced a slowdown in weekly inflows ahead of the anticipated U.S. exchange-traded fund (ETF) launches, recording $29.4 million and $84.3 million in inflows, respectively. Notably, Solana ETP inflows decreased by more than 81% from the previous week.
Bitcoin’s $931 million inflow last week increased the total inflows since the U.S. Federal Reserve began cutting rates in September to $9.4 billion. Despite the substantial recent inflows, Bitcoin funds’ year-to-date total stands at $30.2 billion, approximately 38% below the $41.6 billion recorded last year. Overall, total assets under management in crypto funds have reached $229 billion, with $48.9 billion in inflows so far this year.#cryptocurrency #investment #inflationdata #cryptoinflows #cryptoETPs #bitcoin #ether #altcoins #solana #XRP #USinflation #CPI #monetarypolicy #ETP #cryptoETF #leveragedETP #Fedratecuts #assetsundermanagement #CoinShares #Cointelegraph #BTC #ETH #SOL

Goldman Sachs economists said that the release of key U.S. economic data has been delayed due to the ongoing federal government shutdown, but the October jobs report could be released as early as next week if the government reopens in time.According to PANews, Goldman analysts noted that both September and October federal data releases have faced disruptions. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is preparing to release the October employment report soon after the shutdown ends, potentially in the first half of next week.Other Economic Reports Face DelaysWhile the jobs report may be prioritized, other major data releases — including the November employment report and inflation data (CPI) — could be delayed by at least one week due to the ongoing logistical backlog.The delays have increased uncertainty for financial markets and policymakers, who rely on timely macroeconomic data to assess the strength of the U.S. economy and guide monetary policy decisions.Market ContextThe delays come amid heightened market sensitivity following the Senate’s approval of a temporary funding bill extending government funding through January 30.Analysts say that while the bill temporarily averts a government shutdown, the data gap may complicate the Federal Reserve’s assessment of economic trends ahead of the next policy meeting.#GoldmanSachs #USJobsData #OctoberJobsReport #GovernmentShutdown #BLS #EconomicDataDelays #CPI #EmploymentReport #FederalReserve #MonetaryPolicy #FinancialMarkets #InflationData #MarketUncertainty #USEconomy #FundingBill #SenateApproval

🚀 U.S. Dollar Declines Ahead of Key Inflation Data Release

According to ChainCatcher, the U.S. dollar has weakened ahead of the release of the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation measure, the U.S. Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) data. Emma Wall from Hargreaves Lansdown noted that the core PCE data will be particularly significant before the Federal Reserve's December meeting. If inflation data exceeds expectations, the Federal Reserve may keep interest rates unchanged. Conversely, if the data meets or falls below expectations, it could pave the way for another rate cut.#USDollar #InflationData #PCE #FederalReserve #InterestRates #Economy #RateCut #InflationExpectations
🚀 U.S. Employment Data May Influence Federal Reserve's Rate Decisions

According to Odaily, Morgan Stanley strategist Michael Wilson suggests that if this week's U.S. employment data shows moderate weakness, it could increase the likelihood of further interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. Following three consecutive rate cuts, investors are analyzing these data points to determine whether the Federal Reserve is nearing the end of its monetary easing cycle or if more aggressive measures are needed. This week's U.S. economic data will largely fill the gaps caused by the government shutdown. The delayed monthly employment data is set to be released on Tuesday, with economists predicting an increase of 50,000 jobs and an unemployment rate of 4.5%, indicating a labor market that is weak but not rapidly deteriorating. Consumer inflation data is scheduled for release on Thursday.#USEmploymentData #FederalReserve #InterestRateCuts #MonetaryEasing #EconomicData #JobGrowth #UnemploymentRate #InflationData #MorganStanley #MichaelWilson #USLaborMarket #EconomicForecast

#USLaborMarket #InflationData #CPI #JoblessClaims #FederalReserve #JeromePowell #GoldmanSachs #EconomicConcerns #RateCuts
According to BlockBeats, the U.S. Department of Labor is set to release key economic data on December 18 at 21:30 UTC+8. The report will include the November unadjusted Consumer Price Index (CPI) year-on-year rate, forecasted at 3.1%, initial jobless claims for the week ending December 13, and the November unadjusted core CPI year-on-year data.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell noted in a speech on December 11 that the labor market appears to be gradually cooling, although inflation levels remain somewhat elevated. He highlighted that inflation risks are skewed to the upside, with labor demand having significantly slowed and showing signs of weakening.
Goldman Sachs analyst Kay Haigh commented that the Federal Reserve has reached the end of its "preventive rate cuts." She emphasized that further weakening in labor market data is necessary to justify additional near-term easing policies.#USLaborMarket #InflationData #CPI #JoblessClaims #FederalReserve #JeromePowell #GoldmanSachs #EconomicConcerns #RateCuts

🚀 U.S. Inflation and Unemployment Rates Show Unexpected Trends in November

According to Odaily, the inflation rate in the United States for November was significantly lower than economists had anticipated, while the unemployment rate unexpectedly increased. Due to a 43-day federal government shutdown, which led to distorted and incomplete information, investors have been cautious in interpreting these figures. Michael Lorizio, head of U.S. rates and mortgage trading at Manulife Investment Management, noted that even with these considerations, the potential for inflation data to exceed expectations is quite limited. He added that if the labor market continues its current trajectory, with the unemployment rate rising by 0.1 percentage points each month, the possibility of further interest rate cuts next year might be underestimated.#USinflation #unemploymentrate #federalshutdown #economictrends #inflationdata #labor_market #interestrates #economicforecast #manulifeinvestment #financialmarkets
