US PPI cooled more than expected; expectations of a Fed rate cut received another boost!

Hot spot tracking

• The U.S. PPI rose 2.2% year-on-year in July, lower than expected and a sharp drop from the previous value of 2.7%. Since then, traders have increased their bets on the Fed to ease policy. The decline in the U.S. PPI data is bound to affect the timing of the introduction of interest rate cuts, which is bearish for the U.S. economy and the U.S. dollar in the short term, but bullish for the U.S. dollar in the medium term.

• The Chief of Staff of the Ukrainian Army: We will occupy more than 40 square kilometers of Russian territory and control 74 settlements in the Kursk region of Russia. Lithuanian Defense Minister: Russia is currently transferring troops from Kaliningrad to Kursk. The expansion of the scope of the war indicates that the war is about to enter a fever pitch, which is buulish for crude oil and gold.

• Market news: After a landmark victory in an antitrust lawsuit, the US Department of Justice is considering asking Google to split up. Bearish for Google.

  📝 Review:Looking at the current market dynamics, the short side has a significant advantage in Bitcoin transactions. As of the latest trading data, the price of Bitcoin has still failed to break through the 59,200-point mark, maintaining a narrow range of fluctuations around 59,000 points, showing the market's indecision. It seems quite difficult to break through to 60,000 points. Similarly, it also faces resistance when it falls to 58,000 points. In this context, the 4-hour K-line chart in the evening becomes particularly critical.
