The post United States Producer Price Index soars in April amid Iran war appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The United States (US) Producer Price Index jumped to 6% on a yearly basis in April, following the 4.3% posted in March and largely surpassing the expected 4.9%. On a monthly basis, the PPI rose 1.4%, doubling the March reading of 0.7%, and much higher than the anticipated 0.5%. Wholesale inflation hit its highest since December 2022, not really a surprise considering what’s going on in the Middle East. The energy supply disruption triggered by the Iran war is the main source of higher inflationary pressures around the globe and what’s twisting central bankers’ hands. The figures came a day after the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose by 3.8% in the same period, nearly doubling the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) goal of 2%, spurring speculation that the central bank will have no choice but to hike interest rates. Market reaction The US Dollar Index (DXY) retains the positive momentum acr

Charles Schwab has begun rolling out spot bitcoin trading to retail clients in the United States, marking a major expansion of crypto access through one of the country’s largest brokerage firms. The company announced Tuesday that an initial group of eligible customers can now trade bitcoin through its new platform, Schwab Crypto.

With Bitcoin (BTC) price having underperformed Gold (XAU) and the broader United States stock market in 2026, Matthew Sigel, the head of digital assets research at VanEck, has made a bold prediction. Bitcoin price could hit $160,000 if it reclaims its all-time high relative to gold, Sigel said. The prediction, analyzed by Finbold on May 12, is based on the BTC/XAU pair recovering to 35x, its previous peak, from its current level of 17.1x. Bitcoin / Gold Cross. US Stock Market Cap / GDP. Source: X Sigel highlighted that Bitcoin is cheap, as it has not followed the broader U.S. stock market. Furthermore, the ratio of the U.S. stock market cap and the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) recently rebounded to an all-time high (ATH).

The post US Dollar: Inflation focus shapes rate expectations – TD Securities appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
TD Securities economists highlight that higher US Treasury yields followed headlines on Middle East tensions and upcoming supply, with attention now turning to April United States (US) Consumer Price Index (CPI). They expect core CPI to print above consensus and headline CPI to remain firm, driven by shelter adjustments and energy and food prices, which could influence Dollar and rates pricing over the coming days. US CPI and yields in spotlight “On Tuesday, focus will be on CPI, where our forecast of 0.38% m/m for core is slightly above consensus of 0.36% m/m.” “We also expect a headline print of 0.56% m/m as oil continues to pass through into inflation.” “We look for core CPI inflation to accelerate to 0.38% m/m in April, largely owing to the rebound in shelter prices from methodological adjustments (consensus: 0.3%), with oil prices also likely passing through into airfa
