Which has reduced the prospect of a 75 basis point rate hike within the September meeting from 68% on August. 9 to 37.5%, according to CME group data.
Dangerous assets, such as the cryptocurrency markets, responded positively towards the CPI print. When compared with Bitcoin (BTC), the altcoins are having a more powerful rally. It has pulled Bitcoin’s dominance near its yearly lows while Ether (ETH) has rose near its yearly high.
