The crypto market eagerly awaits the US CPI inflation data this week, which is likely to decide the future path of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy plans. Besides, a flurry of other key events, including Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech is also scheduled later this week. Notably, this comes a week after the US FOMC decided to cut interest rates for the second time this year.
US CPI, Fed Chair Powell Speech, And Other Events To Watch This Week
The US CPI is one of the most awaited events for this week, as it would shed light on the inflationary pressure on the nation. Besides, speculations also soared as the US Fed announced a 25 bps rate cut at last week’s FOMC, with many expecting a similar cut in December. According to CME FedWatch Tool data, there is about a 65% probability of the Fed announcing another quarter-basis rate cut next month.
In addition, the US PPI inflation data is also scheduled for next week, which would further provide cues on the country’s economic health. However, it’s worth noting that this set of inflation figures is likely to set the path for future Fed rate cuts despite the market anticipation over a 25 bps point cut again in December.
The recent Jerome Powell speech from last week was closely watched by the investors. Following last week’s US FOMC, the Fed Chair said that the central bank’s monetary stimulus remains restrictive while saying that the bank should maintain “an appropriate recalibration” of its policy plans.
Having said that, the market will closely watch this week’s speech of Fed President Jerome Powell. If Powell indicates any future hawkish move in this week’s speech, scheduled for November 14, it could significantly impact the market sentiment.

Apart from the above-mentioned developments, the market will also keep a close track of other Fed official’s comments for clarity on the Central Bank’s future moves. On Tuesday, Fed Governor Christopher Waller, Richmond Fed President Tom Barkin, and Philadelphia President Patrick Harker are scheduled to speak.
Following that, the Dallas Fed President and St. Louis Fed President will speak just after the US CPI inflation release. Their comments will be closely watched by the traders who are seeking clarity on the potential impact of inflation on the central bank’s future decisions.
In addition, the weekly initial jobless claims are expected also scheduled for Thursday, which will shed light on the Labor market health in the US. Having said that, the market will keep a close track of these events, especially after a strong rally in the crypto market last week.
