QCP Capital: optimistic about US CPI data and FOMC meeting results
Bitcoin and ethereum spot prices remain range-bound as traders await tonight's Consumer Price Index (CPI) data and the outcome of the Federal Open market Committee (FOMC) meeting, Singapore-based crypto investment house QCP Capital posted. We are optimistic about tonight's events for the following reasons:1. Yesterday, Bitcoin futures swap points bounced off of their 10% lows and rose as traders took profits on their underlying trades by closing out their short futures positions. With any catalyst, we could easily see yields pushed above the 15% level.2. Today we observed heavy buying of June 13 futures contracts along with a significant increase in funding rates, suggesting that the market is gearing up for an upturn.3. With the stock market hitting a record closing high for the second consecutive session, we believe that the expected CPI data and neutral FOMC results could push the cryptocurrency market to test its highs again.

The real policy test for the market will begin after the new Congress takes office in January next year.
