Bitcoin crossed above $61K in early Asian trading hours today as traders remain cautious ahead of the release of US CPI (Consumer Price Index) data and a recent filing shows Goldman Sachs holds positions in multiple BTC ETFS (exchange-traded funds).
Since breaching $61K earlier today, BTC has pulled back to trade at $60,856.21 as of 3:20 a.m. EST. Despite this correction, the leading crypto is still up more than 2% over the past 24 hours.
Traders Remain Cautious Ahead Of CPI Release
Even though BTC was able to reclaim a position above $60K in the past trading session, several traders and trading funds remain cautious ahead of a busy data week.
“Investors remain cautious ahead of US CPI this week,” said QCP Capital in a Telegram broadcast.
Traders will try to gauge if the US Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 50 or 25 basis points in September, the crypto trading firm added. Currently, the odds of either happening are “evenly split,” according to QCP Capital.
Earlier this week, Richard Kelly, the head of global strategy at TD Securities, said in a CNBC interview that he is “very hesitant” that the unwind from the popular yen carry trade is over. “I think there is still a lot that can unwind, especially if you look at how undervalued yen is,” he added.
