We got our report card today! Inflation surprised to the downside, coming in at 4.9%. NLW explores the reaction and why Powell still has three big barriers to getting his soft landing, including, notably, the debt ceiling negotiations.
The Bitcoin price continues to hold above $23,000 and volatility should be expected as we are coming into one of the most critical economic events of the year! Both the FOMC & big-tech earnings are to be released on the same day. A 25BPS rate hike is almost guaranteed, which likely leads to a small move up, but will the momentum continue into Jerome Powell’s speech? Join Kyledoops live on Crypto Banter to find out the exact crypto price levels to watch.

On todayโs episode, NLW updates on the Paxos situation. Paxos made a statement that it is willing to fight the Securities and Exchange Commission in court over whether BUSD is a security. The main part of the episode is focused on Januaryโs inflation data, which came in slightly higher than expected. NLW argues itโs not enough for the Federal Reserve to consider shifting course.

On todayโs episode, NLW digs into Decemberโs just-released CPI numbers. For the sixth month in a row, year-over-year inflation declined. For the first time in more than two years, month-over-month inflation declined. For many, this confirms a Federal Reserve shift back to raising rates by 25 basis points at the FOMCโs next meeting at the end of this month.

The biggest driver of the macroeconomic backdrop is inflation. At the last FOMC meeting, the Federal Reserve made it clear that its fall decisions about interest-rate increases would be driven by data โ most notably inflation data. On todayโs show, NLW looks at the just-released July inflation stats and why theyโre the first positive inflation surprise weโve had in more than a year.
