Index

A crypto Index provides a way for investors to gain diversified exposure to a specific basket of digital assets through a single tokenized product. These indices often track specific sectors, such as DeFi, DePIN, or RWA, and are automatically rebalanced via smart contracts. In 2026, AI-managed thematic indices have become the gold standard for passive investing, allowing users to track the "blue chips" of the Web3 economy without manual portfolio management. This tag covers index methodology, rebalancing frequency, and the benefits of diversified crypto baskets.

US CPI hits 2.9% in August, sealing a 25bps Fed rate cut for next week

US CPI hits 2.9% in August, sealing a 25bps Fed rate cut for next week

The post US CPI hits 2.9% in August, sealing a 25bps Fed rate cut for next week appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CPI rose 2.9% in August, locking in a 0.25% rate cut from the Federal Reserve next week, plain and simple. The monthly number came in hot at 0.4%, jumping from 0.2% in July, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. No more “will they or won’t they.” This print gives the Fed zero excuses. Inflation’s slowing just enough to ease the pressure, and the Fed’s going to act. The CPI-U now sits at 323.976, up 2.9% year-over-year. The CPI-W, which tracks inflation for wage earners, rose 2.8% annually, landing at 317.306. The C-CPI-U came in at 2.7% for the year. All those numbers moved 0.3% month-on-month before seasonal adjustment. Oh, and one caveat; they warned the last 10 to 12 months of data might be revised. Shelter, food, and energy push core prices again Shelter was the single biggest driver of the monthly gain. It jumped 0.4% in August. Rent? Up 0.3%. Owners’ equivalent rent? Also 0.4%. People who stayed at hotels or rentals paid 2.3% more than they did in July. The food index climbed 0.5% in August after being flat in July. Food at home rose 0.6%. All six grocery store categories went up. Tomatoes shot up 4.5%, apples jumped 3.5%, and fruits and vegetables overall rose 1.6%. Beef was up 2.7%, while meats, poultry, fish and eggs saw a 1.0% hike. Nonalcoholic drinks? Up 0.6%. Cereal, dairy, and bakery products each moved up 0.1%. Food away from home got more expensive too. The index rose 0.3% in August. Full-service restaurants increased 0.4%, and fast food joints ticked up 0.1%. Over 12 months, food at home is up 2.7%, and meats, poultry, fish, and eggs soared 5.6%. Nonalcoholic beverages rose 4.6%, and fruits and vegetables went up 1.9%. Cereals and bakery climbed 1.1%, and dairy rose 1.3%.…

US inflation rises to 2.9%

US inflation rises to 2.9%

The post US inflation rises to 2.9% appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways US inflation rose to 2.9% in August 2025, its highest point since January 2025. The rate surpasses the Federal Reserve’s target and could influence interest rate decisions. US inflation climbed to 2.9% in August 2025, reaching its highest level since January of the same year, according to Consumer Price Index data released today. The increase follows two months of steady 2.9% readings in June and July 2025, matching economists’ expectations of accelerating price growth. The current rate exceeds the Federal Reserve’s 2% long-term inflation target, highlighting ongoing challenges in price stabilization after inflation peaked above 9% in 2022. While US inflation maintained an average of 2.5% annually from 2010 to 2020, the early 2020s saw a surge driven by supply chain disruptions and stimulus spending. The latest reading mirrors levels observed in early 2025, suggesting persistent inflationary pressures. The S&P 500 has historically dropped between 1% and 2% on days when inflation data exceeds expectations, as markets price in potential monetary policy tightening. The elevated inflation rate indicates faster price increases for consumer goods and services compared to recent months, potentially affecting household spending and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decisions.

Kospi Record High Hints at Bitcoin Bull Run End

Kospi Record High Hints at Bitcoin Bull Run End

The post Kospi Record High Hints at Bitcoin Bull Run End appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes South Korea’s Kospi index reached a record high of 4,340 points on Sept.11. Historically, Kospi peaks have aligned with Bitcoin cycle tops in 2017 and 2021. Analysts suggest this correlation signals that the current Bitcoin bull run may be nearing its end. South Korea’s main equity index, the Kospi, climbed to a record high of 4,340 points, driven by strong earnings in the semiconductor sector and expectations of U.S. interest rate cuts. However, after a 38% gain year-to-date, some market participants warn of potential profit-taking if corporate earnings fail to meet expectations. This development is prompting caution among some analysts. Based on historical data, the new high for the Kospi could indicate that the bull run for Bitcoin BTC $114 192 24h volatility: 1.6% Market cap: $2.27 T Vol. 24h: $48.61 B is approaching its conclusion. Analysis from the crypto platform Alphractal shows a pattern of the Kospi and Bitcoin (BTC) peaking around the same time. This occurred in late 2017 and again in the second half of 2021, with both assets entering bear markets shortly after. The KOSPI Composite Index, South Korea’s main stock index, has just reached a new all-time high — a level not seen since 2021. 📌 Interesting fact: every time the KOSPI has set a new record high, Bitcoin was trading close to its all-time high of the cycle. The last time this… pic.twitter.com/prQaiQQzqy — Alphractal (@Alphractal) September 11, 2025 Kospi and Bitcoin Show Historical Correlation The relationship between the two assets highlights their shared sensitivity to global economic shifts. When investor confidence is high, capital tends to flow into both emerging markets like South Korea and riskier assets such as crypto. This pattern suggests that a peak in the Kospi could precede a similar move for the Bitcoin price. Joao Wedson, the…

Analysis: U.S. consumer prices rose more than expected in August, but won't prevent the Fed from cutting rates next week

PANews reported on September 11th that the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose more than expected in August, with the annual rate of inflation increasing at its fastest pace in seven months. However, these figures are not expected to prevent the Federal Reserve from cutting interest rates next week due to a weak job market. Thursday's data showed that the CPI rose 0.4% in August, following a 0.2% increase in July. For the 12 months ending in August, the CPI rose 2.9%, the largest increase since January, following a 2.7% increase in July. Following recent bearish news on the job market, the CPI report could stoke concerns about stagflation. The impact of US President Trump's comprehensive tariffs will be gradual, but price increases are likely to accelerate in the coming months as businesses have now depleted pre-tariff inventories. Business surveys have been hinting at impending price increases for some time. Stephen Stanley, chief economist for US Capital Markets at Santander Bank, said: "There is a lot of evidence that more tariff-related inflation is coming, although it may take several months for the full transmission to occur."

JPMorgan Chase: Strategy was "snubbed" by the S&P 500 Index, sounding the alarm for corporate Bitcoin reserves

JPMorgan Chase: Strategy was "snubbed" by the S&P 500 Index, sounding the alarm for corporate Bitcoin reserves

PANews reported on September 11th that, according to CoinDesk, despite meeting the technical eligibility criteria, Strategy (MSTR)'s application to join the S&P 500 index was rejected. JPMorgan Chase believes this indicates the market's growing caution toward companies acting as Bitcoin funds. The decision not only frustrated Strategy, but also dealt a blow to companies that have followed its model of accumulating Bitcoin on their balance sheets. JPMorgan Chase pointed out that the inclusion of Strategy in other major benchmark indices, such as the Nasdaq 100 and MSCI, has quietly opened a backdoor for Bitcoin to enter retail and institutional portfolios, but the S&P 500's decision may mark the limit of this trend and may prompt other index providers to reconsider the inclusion of existing Bitcoin-weighted companies. JPMorgan Chase noted that Nasdaq's requirement for shareholder approval before issuing new shares to purchase cryptocurrencies has exacerbated pressure. Strategy has abandoned its commitment to non-dilution and is willing to issue shares at low price-to-earnings ratios to purchase cryptocurrencies. Currently, corporate crypto reserves are facing weak stock prices, slowing issuance, and waning investor interest, raising questions about the sustainability of their models. Investors and index providers may favor crypto companies with actual operating businesses.
