QCP Capital has outlined the potential impact of upcoming U.S. economic indicators on the cryptocurrency markets. Key data releases in the first week of October, including ISM and nonfarm payrolls, are expected to influence market dynamics. Despite some softening trends, the U.S. economy shows resilience with core PCE at 2.9% year-over-year and GDPNow tracking near 3.3% annualized growth. The Federal Reserve's cautious easing bias and Powell's focus on uncertainty have led to higher yields and reduced expectations for rate cuts in 2025. QCP Capital notes that a strong payroll report could pressure equities and increase yields, while a U.S. government shutdown is considered a non-event for markets. Bitcoin's correlation with equities suggests that any shutdown-related dips could present buying opportunities for investors.
