Crypto traders watch out for personal consumption expenditures (PCE) inflation data for further cues as Bitcoin (BTC) price swoosh past $63,900. The\u00a0U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis <\/strong>will release the U.S. Federal Reserve\u2019s (Fed) preferred inflation gauge PCE. The data is crucial because of the recent hotter-than-expected CPI, pulling Fed rate cuts off the table. Personal income, personal spending, and initial jobless claims are also due today.<\/p>\n

Wall Street giants including JPMorgan, Bank of America, UBS, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, Nomura, RBC, Barclays, Goldman Sachs, TD Securities, and Wells Fargo remain split on PCE after the CPI scare, but most anticipate inflation to cool further.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As per the consensus, The annual PCE inflation<\/strong> is expected to further cool to 2.4% from last month\u2019s 2.6%, with the monthly rate seen rising 0.3%. Also, the Core PCE<\/strong>, the Fed\u2019s preferred gauge to measure inflation, is expected to rise 0.4% month-on-month while the annual rate is predicted to cool to 2.8%, from last month\u2019s 2.9%.<\/p>\n

Fed Rate Cuts in September<\/h2>\n

Amid Wall Street estimates mostly in line with market consensus, Fed Chair Jerome Powell\u2019s<\/strong> expecting three rate cuts in 2024 and Fed officials remaining cautious after CPI, expects predicted rate cuts are likely to happen starting September<\/a>. The market currently has a 65% chance of Fed rate cuts in June, with March and May off the table. Moreover, the CME FedWatch<\/strong>\u00a0shows<\/a> a 51% probability of a 25 bps rate cut in June.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The US dollar index (DXY<\/a>) moves around 103.8 on Thursday after facing heightened volatility in the previous session. A stronger-than-expected PCE could reduce bets for a rate cut in the first half even further, potentially lifting the dollar and impacting Bitcoin price.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Moreover, US 10-Year Treasury yields (US10Y<\/a>) are rising ahead of key PCE data, with a current 0.014% gain to 4.29%, as per CNBC. Bitcoin price moves in the opposite direction to US treasury yield.<\/p>\n
