【BlockBeats】Latest economic data shows that US retail sales in November increased by 0.6% month-on-month, surpassing market expectations of 0.4%. This result suggests that consumer resilience remains strong, despite widespread concerns about economic slowdown.

More notably, the performance of prices is worth paying attention to. The November PPI annual rate rose to 3%, higher than the expected 2.7%—indicating that cost pressures at the production stage have not yet dissipated. However, the month-on-month data is relatively moderate, with the PPI remaining flat at 0.2%, in line with expectations.

This set of data reflects a scenario where economic resilience and inflationary pressures coexist. While consumption continues to grow, upward price pressures still exist, which could subtly influence future monetary policy and market liquidity. The crypto market is usually sensitive to economic data, making this macro signal worth ongoing monitoring.

Consumption resilience is pretty good, but that 3% PPI is a bit painful... The Federal Reserve is going to have a headache again.

Consumption resilience is pretty good, but the PPI number can't hold up... It seems like the Fed will have to come up with a new plan again. For the crypto world, this wave might be a variable.

It's the same kind of data that's both good and bad, the most deceptive... Strong consumption and strong inflation too, what will the Fed do? I bet Bitcoin is going to crash.

Consumer resilience is indeed strong, but the PPI number is a bit sobering... Inflation still hasn't fully eased, no wonder BTC has been so volatile lately.
