Bitcoin Price Reacts Instantly to August US CPI Data

The last US CPI data ahead of the highly anticipated FOMC meeting next week just came out, and the numbers are mostly in line with what experts predicted.

The regular Consumer Price Index matched precisely the forecast of 2.9% on a yearly basis. However, the monthly projection of a 0.3% increase was outpaced by the actual rise of 0.4%.

The Core CPI, which excludes more volatile sectors like food and energy, was also spot on with the expectations at 3.1% YoY and 0.3% MoM.

These CPI numbers have particular importance for the overall financial markets as the US Fed is set to have its next FOMC meeting in less than a week. After the most recent Jackson Hole speech, market experts believe Fed Chair Jerome Powell will finally follow Trump’s advice and lower the key interest rates after failing to do so in 2025.

Bitcoin’s price reacted immediately to the CPI announcement today. The asset had climbed to $114,000, and it jumped to a new multi-week peak of $114,500 before it suddenly dropped by a grand. As of press time, it’s back to $114,000.

The post Microsoft Corp. $MSFT blue box area offers a buying opportunity appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In today’s article, we’ll examine the recent performance of Microsoft Corp. ($MSFT) through the lens of Elliott Wave Theory. We’ll review how the rally from the April 07, 2025 low unfolded as a 5-wave impulse followed by a 3-swing correction (ABC) and discuss our forecast for the next move. Let’s dive into the structure and expectations for this stock. Five wave impulse structure + ABC + WXY correction $MSFT 8H Elliott Wave chart 9.04.2025 In the 8-hour Elliott Wave count from Sep 04, 2025, we saw that $MSFT completed a 5-wave impulsive cycle at red III. As expected, this initial wave prompted a pullback. We anticipated this pullback to unfold in 3 swings and find buyers in the equal legs area between $497.02 and $471.06 This setup aligns with a typical Elliott Wave correction pattern (ABC), in which the market pauses briefly before resuming its primary trend. $MSFT 8H Elliott Wave chart 7.14.2025 The update, 10 days later, shows the stock finding support from the equal legs area as predicted allowing traders to get risk free. The stock is expected to bounce towards 525 – 532 before deciding if the bounce is a connector or the next leg higher. A break into new ATHs will confirm the latter and can see it trade higher towards 570 – 593 area. Until then, traders should get risk free and protect their capital in case of a WXY double correction. Conclusion In conclusion, our Elliott Wave analysis of Microsoft Corp. ($MSFT) suggested that it remains supported against April 07, 2025 lows and bounce from the blue box area. In the meantime, keep an eye out for any corrective pullbacks that may offer entry opportunities. By applying Elliott Wave Theory, traders can better anticipate the structure of upcoming moves and enhance risk management in volatile markets.
