In order to get a sense of the state of the economy, investors were waiting with bated breath for the US <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/october-cpi-data-expected-to-show-inflation-spike/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CPI</a> figures. In particular, the most recent numbers revealed that inflation rose slightly to 2.7% in November from 2.6% the previous month. 
Nevertheless, the market anticipated this higher number, which has fueled anticipation of another Fed rate drop at next week’s <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/will-a-fomc-rate-cut-propel-bitcoin-or-lead-market-turbulence/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">FOMC</a> meeting. The price of <a href="http://bitcoin.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Bitcoin</a> is already witnessing a surge and touched the $100,000 mark with a 4.25% gain in the last 24 hours as per data from CMC.

The US Consumer Price Index rose slightly to 2.7% in November, according to the most recent statistics from the Labor Department. This is a rise from 2.6% in October. Nonetheless, the performance met or exceeded market expectations. After 0.2% in October, the headline inflation rate for the month of November is 0.3%. 
However, a separate measure that does not include energy and food costs, the Core Consumer Price Index, arrives at 3.3% for November. It was consistent with market forecasts and stayed the same as October’s number. Also holding steady at 0.3% monthly is the Core CPI. 
Investors seem to have maintained their optimism, as the results aligned with the market projections. It has also increased the likelihood that the Federal Reserve would drop interest rates again at its meeting next week. 
But tomorrow, the US will release its PPI inflation statistics, and the market will be watching them closely. The US Federal Reserve’s future decision about their plans to decrease interest rates will be guided by these statistics. Noteworthy, according to the CME FedWatch Tool, the following week’s FOMC meeting has a 97% probability of a further 25 basis point drop.
