On a monthly basis, according to the US Department of Labor, inflation accelerated by 0.4%. Note that this is higher than the figure from January 2024. At the same time, in December 2023, it was 3.4%.
Shortly after the publication of the inflation data, the trading session on the American stock market began. Against this background, bitcoin made a rapid leap, testing the $73,000 mark.
Then he rolled away. At the time of writing, the asset is trading at about $72,000.
