Bitcoin has tanked again in a typical and now repetitive late Sunday slump, sending the asset below $88,000 briefly.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cMass amounts of economic data from the government shutdown have officially arrived,\u201d said the Kobeissi Letter, highlighting key inflation reports out this week.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Meanwhile, US President Trump has touted the success of his trade tariffs, claiming that the country has taken in $18 trillion in revenue as a result.<\/p>\n

Several major crypto firms received conditional approval last week to become national trust banks in a step that could make stablecoins more mainstream, but this wasn\u2019t enough to prevent markets from falling again.<\/p>\n

Economic Events Dec. 15 to 19<\/h2>\n

Tuesday will see the release of October retail sales data and the November jobs report, both of which will be eyed by policymakers. Strong employment data could validate the Fed\u2019s cautious stance<\/a> from last week.\u00a0However, further labor market weakness could raise concerns about economic momentum and complicate its more hawkish 2026 projections.<\/p>\n

Manufacturing and Services PMI releases are also due, providing forward-looking perspectives on business activity across both goods-producing and services sectors.\u00a0The big hitters come on Thursday with November\u2019s Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation data, which will show whether prices are moderating yet or remaining stubbornly high.<\/p>\n

Thursday\u2019s Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Index will provide additional economic context about regional industrial conditions and pricing pressures.<\/p>\n

Friday is also a heavy hitter with the Core PCE Price Index, the Fed\u2019s preferred inflation measure. There are also expected to be existing home sales data, inflation expectations data, and consumer sentiment reports released on Friday.<\/p>\n
