The Inflation Ghost Returns with a Vengeance! U.S. February PPI Surges 0.7%, Year-Over-Year Jumps 3.4% to One-Year High—Is the Fed's Rate Cut Dream Over? 😭 Just before Middle East tensions push oil prices higher, the U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) delivers a knockout blow to the market! The latest data released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics on March 18 shows: February 2026 final demand PPI rose 0.7% month-over-month, far exceeding market expectations of 0.3%, and marking the largest single-month increase since July last year! The year-over-year rate surged to 3.4%, the largest increase in the past year, compared to the previous reading of just 2.9%. This is no minor fluctuation—inflation's "stickiness" has proven once again it's alive and well! Who's Driving Up Prices? Three Culprits Exposed 1. Commodities Firing on All Cylinders +1.1% Food prices skyrocket 2.4%, with fresh and dried vegetables surging 48.9% (vegetable prices taking off!) Energy prices rebound 2.3%, with diesel, gasoline, aviation fuel, eggs, and tobacco all rising across the board → Commodity inflation makes a strong comeback, supply chain pressures reignited 2. Services Won't Back Down +0.5% Passenger accommodation services (hotels) surge 5.7% month-over-month, accounting for nearly 20% of the increase Food and beverage wholesale, securities brokerage, fuel retail, long-haul trucking, hospital care all rising broadly → Service inflation stickiness is extremely strong, the "core inflation" spread the Fed fears most 3. Core Indicators Even More Alarming Core PPI excluding food, energy, and trade services: +0.5% month-over-month (10th consecutive monthly increase), +3.5% year-over-year Core PPI excluding food and energy: +3.9% year-over-year (exceeds expectations of 3.7%, marking one-year high) Markets Explode: Rate Cut Expectations Collapse With the data released, stock futures immediately turned negative, with the Dow futures down more than 400 points at one point. Traders significantly scaled back bets on Federal Reserve rate cuts for 2026, with some even saying "no cuts before 2027!" What's worse: This February data doesn't fully reflect the oil price surge since the Iran conflict erupted (oil prices already up over 40%). Markets expect March PPI to explode further, with inflation pressures likely just beginning! Sum it up in one sentence: Inflation hasn't cooled off—it's reigniting at the production level! The Fed now faces a dilemma: should the economy achieve a soft landing? Or does it need to maintain high rates? #加密行情震盪 #比特币支撑阻力位分析 #美國2月PPI超預期 #美聯儲維持利率不變 $BTC ‌$ETH ‌$DOGE ‌

3.20 BTC#比特币btc# Big pie had a small rebound overnight, currently stabilizing at the 70000 resistance level. If this price holds steady, the rebound space will be in the 71500-72000 range, which serves as daily resistance. Whether the market will reverse and surge higher in the coming days depends on whether it can break through this resistance range. If it breaks through, there will be a second surge opportunity. Therefore, key attention should be paid to this resistance range where both long and short positions can be traded. Once it reaches there, short first; if it breaks through, close shorts and turn long. Intraday pullbacks should watch 70000; if this price is broken, the small-level rebound is complete, and the market will continue to probe lower with targets at 69000-68300-67000. ETH#以太坊eth# Auntie's rebound will be weaker. Resistance continues to watch 2150; only if this resistance breaks can the market have a second surge opportunity. Further upside resistance to watch at 2230-2250. Conversely, if small-level pullback breaks 2100, this rebound wave is complete; pay attention to secondary support near 2050-2012 at these two positions.#加密行情震荡
