According to BlockBeats, Joanne Hsu, director of the University of Michigan's consumer survey, reported that U.S. consumer confidence in October remained stable, with the index recording 55 points, nearly unchanged from September. This month, consumers showed improved perceptions of their current personal financial situation and the business environment over the next year. However, expectations for future personal finances and evaluations of current conditions for purchasing durable goods declined, offsetting each other. Overall, consumers believe the economic outlook has not significantly changed compared to last month.
High prices and weak employment prospects continue to be the primary concerns for consumers, who do not anticipate significant improvements in these areas. Interviews indicate that there is little evidence so far that the ongoing federal government shutdown has altered consumer views on the economy. Meanwhile, inflation expectations for the next year have slightly decreased from 4.7% last month to 4.6% this month, though they remain elevated. Long-term inflation expectations remain stable at 3.7%.#USConsumerConfidence #October #UniversityOfMichigan #JoanneHsu #BlockBeats #DurableGoods #FederalShutdown #Inflation #InflationExpectations #EconomicOutlook

According to BlockBeats, U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is scheduled to deliver a speech at the National Association for Business Economics event, focusing on 'Economic Outlook and Monetary Policy.' The address, set for 00:20 UTC+8, could impact market expectations regarding interest rate cuts and overall monetary policy, potentially influencing the current downward trend in the cryptocurrency market.
Blockchain data firm Santiment previously noted that last Friday's sell-off was not solely driven by tariff news. Retail traders quickly attributed the sharp decline to tariff tensions, but deeper structural issues, such as excessive leverage and extreme concentration of long positions, are accumulating.
Investors are closely watching to see if Powell will provide any hints about the timing and extent of interest rate cuts. The market widely anticipates the Federal Reserve will reduce rates by 25 basis points in both October and December, with futures markets reflecting probabilities of 97% and 89%, respectively. Powell's speech is expected to clarify the Fed's views on inflation, growth, and the impact of tariffs, with his tone likely determining whether market confidence will recover or further decline.#Powell #Speech #FederalReserve #JeromePowell #Cryptocurrency #CryptoMarket #MarketTrends #EconomicOutlook #MonetaryPolicy #InterestRateCuts #Tariffs #TariffTensions #Santiment #BlockBeats #FuturesMarkets #RateCuts #October #December #Inflation #Growth #MarketConfidence
