This week there are a few economic events worth keeping an eye on, which may stir the waters of the crypto market.

Let's talk about the situation in the United States first—they need to release a bunch of data that has been delayed for several months, such as September's retail sales, producer price index, and housing prices. These numbers directly determine how the Federal Reserve will play with monetary policy next. Just think, if retail data is off the charts and the PPI is also rising, the market will immediately start pondering: will the Americans still cut interest rates? If the dollar strengthens, the crypto market will likely take a hit. Conversely, if the data is disappointing and expectations for interest rate cuts rise, the crypto market might be able to catch a breather or even rebound.

Let's take another look at the liquidity aspect. The US stock market will be closed for Labor Thanksgiving, and the money in the traditional financial market has nowhere to go in the short term. Theoretically, some of it may flow into the crypto market—sounds like a good thing, right? But don't celebrate too early; liquidity itself may also thin out because those people on Wall Street are off for the holidays. During such times, exaggerated market fluctuations are most likely to occur, with both surges and drops being quite common.

Another easily overlooked point is the global economic sentiment. The IFO Business Climate Index from Germany and China's electricity generation data, although seemingly unrelated to the crypto market, will influence the overall risk appetite. If these indicators show that the economy is cooling, investors will become conservative, and risk assets #比特币波动性 , including our little corner (, are likely to suffer as a result.

In simple terms, this week is a special window where a data-intensive period meets a contraction in holiday liquidity. Increased volatility is almost inevitable, and the direction depends on how those key numbers turn out — do you think the Federal Reserve will sweeten the market or pour cold water on it?
