Crypto Markets Face Uncertainty Amid Thin Economic Data and Fed Meeting
Crypto markets enter a holiday-shortened week grappling with volatility and a lack of critical economic data. With key indicators like October and November jobs and inflation reports delayed until after the 10 December FOMC meeting, the Federal Reserve—and by extension, digital asset traders—are navigating uncharted waters.
The absence of traditional anchors has left markets vulnerable to abrupt swings. Fed officials, already skeptical of a December rate cut, now face heightened uncertainty. This data vacuum reduces the likelihood of any policy shifts in the coming week, leaving crypto assets without clear macroeconomic signals to guide price action.
