Analysts expect inflation to accelerate back above the Bank of Japans target in the coming months as businesses begin to pass on rising fuel costs from the Middle East conflict. The core CPI, excluding the impact of volatile fresh food costs, rose 1.8% year-on-year in March, in line with the market median forecast. This followed a 1.6% increase in February. Another index, excluding fresh food and fuel (a better indicator closely monitored by the Bank of Japan as a measure of demand-driven price changes), rose 2.4% year-on-year in March, compared to a 2.5% increase in February.On April 24th, according to foreign media reports, most soybean oil futures contracts on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) closed higher on Thursday, with only the May contract slightly lower.

On Wednesday, the price of bitcoin (BTC) plummeted by 1.63 percent. BTC ended Tuesday at $20,165, a decrease of 0.04% from its opening price.

 

BTC rose to a high of $20,817 in response to the FOMC Statement, following a range-bound morning. BTC surpassed the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $20,686 before falling to an intraday low of $20,086. BTC went below the First and Second Major Support Levels (S1 and S2) at $20,327 and $20,154, respectively.

 

In accordance with forecasts, the Fed raised rates by 75 basis points on Wednesday. The FOMC Statement hinted at a likely policy move in December, lending credence to December Fed pivot wagers. The Rate Statement pushed BTC and ETH to their daily peaks.

 

However, Fed Chair Powell dashed prospects for a reversal, citing excessive inflation and the need to continue forward. Powell remarked that the "final level of interest rates will be higher than anticipated."

 

As a result, the NASDAQ Composite Index fell 3.36 percent, sending BTC and ETH into the negative.

 

Today, attention will be on US factory orders, jobless claims, and the ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI. We anticipate the PMI and its subcomponents to have the most effect.

 

Due to the sensitivity of BTC and ETH to US economic statistics and the FED, the correlation with the NASDAQ Composite Index remains intact. The NASDAQ 100 Mini was up 35 points this morning.
