CPI Data Update | Market Reaction Analysis The latest CPI data has now been released and came fully in line with market expectations. As anticipated, the print delivered no real bullish surprise, resulting in only a short-lived relief bounce across risk assets. Market behavior: • Brief rally immediately after release • Momentum faded quickly • Price retraced and dipped soon after • No structural trend shift confirmed This reaction reinforces a familiar pattern: When macro data meets expectations, liquidity not headlines decides direction. Trade management update: Our short positions opened earlier today remain intact, as price action continues to respect key resistance levels. Volatility compression after CPI often precedes a stronger directional move. Current plan: • Shorts: Held • Take-profit target: 91,000 • Risk: Actively managed, no emotional trades Next catalyst: All eyes now turn to the U.S. stock market open, which will likely determine whether risk sentiment rolls over or attempts another push higher. Equities will lead crypto will follow. Conclusion: CPI did not provide a trend reversal signal. Until liquidity expands or structure breaks, patience remains the edge.
