Inflation reported at 8.5%, which is better than the expected 8.7%!! #Crypto Markets in green!!โ โ โ
so does this mean we just survived a recession?
Well, there are 3 upcoming event you MUST know about ๐งต๐
1) Unemployment Release - September 2, 2022
Politicians have a hard time stating we are in a recession since the unemployment rate is so low. Last report came in at only 3.5%.
If we get a rate of 3.5% or lower at the next release = bullish
2) August CPI Report - September 13, 2022
This next CPI report along with the unemployment rate will lead us to the the most important decision of all, and that's whether the FED will lower or increase interest rates at the next meeting.
