Today, Tuesday, January 13, 2026, the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) report for December will be published at 15:30 Kyiv time (8:30 A.M. Eastern Time โ ET).
Here are a few key points for the crypto market ahead of this event:
๐ Analyst forecasts:
It is expected that the annual inflation rate will remain at 2.7%.
If the actual figure turns out to be lower than the forecast, it could trigger a rise in
$BTC , as the market would anticipate a faster reduction in Federal Reserve interest rates.
๐ค What to expect:
Typically, there is increased volatility in the market 15โ30 minutes before and after the release (i.e., from 15:15 to 16:00 Kyiv time).
Investors are currently very sensitive to any signs of sticky inflation, as this could force the Fed to keep rates high longer than expected.
Markets currently price in only a 20% probability of a rate cut by the end of January, so today's data could significantly reshape these expectations.
