U.S. markets entered a light‑volatility phase ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday, and crypto market liquidity reflected the thin turnover typical of the period. In parallel, a Friday data-center outage at CME Group amplified intraday moves in traditional safe‑haven assets; digital assets traders monitored spillover effects as spot gold and other commodities displayed heightened volatility.
Looking ahead, the macro calendar remains pivotal for risk assets. Powell and Bowman, alongside ADP employment, the ISM Services PMI, and the PCE indices, will guide expectations. Sustained service‑sector strength could keep hawkish momentum intact; softer readings may justify policy repricing affecting digital assets.
With the official November payroll report delayed to December 16, the ADP update will provide a timely labor‑market signal. Traders will weigh inflation expectations and consumption data to gauge near‑term policy risk for cryptocurrency markets.
