Key releases this week include consumer confidence, first-quarter GDP, inflation, labor-cost, manufacturing, and jobs data, with the Federal Reserve rate decision due Wednesday.
This week’s U.S. economic calendar includes several data points closely watched by crypto and broader financial markets. Scheduled releases are consumer confidence on Tuesday, durable goods orders and the Federal Reserve rate decision on Wednesday, and a dense set of Thursday reports including first-quarter GDP, core PCE inflation, the Employment Cost Index, and jobless claims. Friday’s calendar includes the ISM manufacturing PMI. These releases matter because interest-rate expectations, inflation trends, growth signals, and labor-market conditions can influence risk appetite, U.S. dollar strength, bond yields, and pricing across digital assets and equities.
