December 14th — The UK’s Financial Times noted that the U.S. nonfarm payrolls report due next Tuesday will include October and November data, finally giving policymakers and investors a more complete view of the U.S. labor market and ending months of incomplete visibility. The Federal Reserve cut interest rates to a three-year low following a contentious meeting this week, with several officials dissenting. The debate centered on whether to prioritize tackling high inflation or a weak labor market. Citigroup economists flagged that the upcoming employment report may send mixed signals. The bank projects a drop of roughly 45,000 jobs in October but a gain of 80,000 in November. Citi economists noted this rebound likely stems more from seasonal data adjustments than a “genuine pickup in worker demand.” They also project the unemployment rate will tick up from 4.4% to 4.52%, while a Reuters survey of economists forecasts a 4.4% rate. The Fed’s own quarterly projections peg the media

However, the FSC failed to meet the deadline. An FSC spokesperson said the commission needs more time to align with relevant agencies’ positions.

December 14 (CoinDesk) — Bitcoin fell below $90,000 on Sunday, as investors held limited overall risk appetite ahead of next week’s key economic data releases and central bank meetings. Some analysts have warned that a break of key technical levels could shift Bitcoin’s range-bound consolidation into bearish territory. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez said earlier Sunday on X that $86,000 remains a critical support level Bitcoin must hold; a breach of this level could trigger a deeper market pullback. The crypto market is currently in a consolidation phase, with low trading volume and muted investor confidence. Traders are waiting for upcoming U.S. macroeconomic data and central bank policy decisions to gain clearer directional signals.
