The <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/dictionary/consumer-price-index-cpi/">Consumer Price Index (CPI)</a> data, a key indicator of inflation, is scheduled for release by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. This data measures the changes in prices of essential consumer goods and services, providing insights into the current inflation rate in the economy. 
In recent days, <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/cryptocurrencies/bitcoin/">Bitcoin’s price</a> has exhibited volatility, slipping towards $36,500, influenced by the market’s speculative response to the forthcoming CPI data. The dip in Bitcoin’s price below $37,000 can be seen as a strategic move by investors who are adjusting their positions in anticipation of the CPI report’s impact on market sentiment. 
The financial markets, including cryptocurrency, have already priced in a slightly higher inflation rate compared <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/news/bitcoin-traders-watch-key-price-levels-ahead-of-us-cpi-release/">to the previous month’s data</a>. TradingEconomics, a platform tracking economic data, indicates that the consensus CPI figure stands at 307.81, marginally above the last reported figure of 307.79. This anticipation of higher inflation has led to a cautious approach among corporate entities and high net-worth individuals (HNIs) invested in Bitcoin. 
A notable trend in the crypto market is the decrease in large <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/bitcoin/">Bitcoin</a> transactions, commonly known as ‘whale transactions.’ These transactions, typically exceeding $100,000, are indicative of the trading activity of large corporate entities and high net-worth investors. On November 12, the number of such transactions dropped to the lowest for the month, signaling a subdued trading disposition among institutional investors and traders. This decline reflects the market’s neutral stance ahead of the CPI data release.

The market consensus plays a significant role in shaping the short-term price trajectory of Bitcoin. If the actual CPI data exceeds the anticipated figure of 307.81, Bitcoin’s price might face a downward pressure, potentially falling towards $35,000. Conversely, if the inflation data falls short of market expectations, it could trigger a bullish response, pushing Bitcoin’s price to retest levels around $38,000.
