This week, the crypto market is set for another turbulent period, with Bitcoin initially surpassing the critical $69,000 mark, only to retreat to around $65,000 due to rising geopolitical risks. Amid this volatility, several economic events could significantly impact the market over the coming days.
Crypto Markets Brace for Key Economic Data and Events
This week, crypto markets will be closely watching key macroeconomic indicators and events that could sway asset prices. With recent resistance levels tested, Bitcoin and other major coins may face heightened volatility as various economic data is released. Wednesday, October 30, marks the start of Binance Dubai Blockchain Week, where the crypto community will monitor potential project announcements and strategic partnerships. Additionally, the U.S. ADP Non-Farm Employment Change report, expected to show an increase of 101,000 jobs for October, will be released at 15:15. This data could offer crucial insights into the U.S. job market, with implications for cryptocurrencies.
Corporate Earnings Could Shake Crypto Markets
On Wednesday evening, major companies including Coinbase, MicroStrategy, Microsoft, and Meta are scheduled to release their earnings reports. With Coinbase and MicroStrategy closely tied to crypto markets, these reports may trigger price movements in Bitcoin and altcoins. Crypto investors will be scrutinizing these earnings closely, particularly given Coinbase’s direct involvement in the crypto sector.
The following day, Thursday, October 31, the Bank of Japan will announce its interest rate decision, which is anticipated to remain unchanged. This decision could affect Asian markets and impact crypto investors. Additionally, at 13:00, the European Union’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report will be released, with expectations for a 1.9% increase in October. Inflation trends are often closely monitored by the European Central Bank, and any significant shifts could indirectly affect the crypto market.
Critical U.S. Data Ahead
More essential U.S. data is expected on Thursday. The Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index data will be released at 15:30, with a projected 2.7% increase annually and 0.3% monthly. Initial jobless claims are also anticipated, with around 231,000 filings expected. These data points will provide insights into U.S. consumer spending and labor market health, both critical factors for market sentiment.
Big Data on Friday: Non-Farm Payrolls
Wrapping up the week, Friday, November 1, will bring the U.S. Non-Farm Payrolls report, along with unemployment rate and average hourly earnings data. Non-farm payrolls are projected to rise by 111,000, with unemployment holding steady at 4.1%. These reports may further influence market dynamics, making them essential for crypto investors to monitor.
With several impactful events ahead, The Bit Journal recommends staying vigilant and closely following these developments, as the crypto market remains particularly sensitive to broader economic shifts.
