US Core CPI Rises 0.3% in August, Raising Odds of Fed Rate Hike
US core consumer prices rose 0.3% in August, exceeding analyst forecasts, according to the latest CPI report. The hotter-than-expected inflation reading has heightened speculation that the Federal Reserve may move to raise interest rates. The report carries particular significance after Fed Chair Kevin Warsh recently warned that the central bank could be forced to act if inflation fails to cool. Warsh made those remarks approximately two weeks before the data was released. The figures put the Fed in a difficult position as policymakers weigh their next move on monetary policy.

Bitcoin Retreats After Golden Cross Signal Fails to Spark Rally
Bitcoin has pulled back in price following the formation of a so-called golden cross, a technical chart pattern typically seen as a bullish indicator. The golden cross occurs when a short-term moving average crosses above a long-term moving average, often interpreted as a signal of potential upside. However, historical data suggests that significant price gains tend to materialize before the signal appears, rather than after. This means traders who act on the golden cross may already be too late to capture the bulk of the rally. The latest instance has reinforced this pattern, with Bitcoin failing to sustain momentum following the signal.
