Last night, the U.S. released initial jobless claims data—191,000. What does this number mean? The job market is still pretty resilient, which gives the Fed room to continue with “gentle rate cuts.”
But the real highlight is tonight: the September Core PCE Price Index will be released. This thing is much more important than other inflation data, since it’s the indicator the Fed values most. Will there be a rate cut in December? The answer might be hidden in this number. It’s said that there’s still debate within the Fed about how much inflation pressure really exists.
On the technical side, Ethereum followed the broader market in a pullback today, but there’s short-term support holding it up. My view is that until the Fed’s policy meeting is over, it’ll likely move sideways, and any volatility won’t be too extreme.

Core PCE is the real focus; everything else is just noise. Let's wait for tonight's data.

The core PCE will reveal the truth tonight. If the Fed really makes a move this time, a gas war is about to break out, and the arbitrage opportunities might be slashed by half.

Core PCE is the real trump card; all other data have to take a back seat.
The Fed has another headache—there’s no clear answer when it comes to inflation.
When will this sideways market finally end? Waiting is making me sleepy.
I’m just worried that as soon as the data comes out tonight, we’ll see a huge swing—my heart can’t take it.
After all this back and forth, it still comes down to what the Fed thinks.

Waiting to see tonight's PCE, I feel like it will give everyone a clear signal, otherwise these past two days have been too exhausting.

The core PCE is the real boss. If tonight's data isn't strong, ETH might get left in the dust again.

Core PCE is the key, all other data is just noise. Wait for tonight.
