Bitcoin Price Gains 1.5% as Risk Assets Celebrate US CPI Print
Bitcoin gained 1.5% following cooler-than-expected December 2025 US CPI data, which also sent the S&P 500 to new record highs.Summary
Bitcoin (BTC) saw a 1.5% price increase, approaching $93,000, as US Consumer Price Index (CPI) figures for December 2025 came in cooler than expected. Headline CPI matched predictions at 2.7%, but core CPI was 2.6%, slightly below expectations. This positive inflation data immediately boosted US stock markets, with the S&P 500 hitting new all-time highs. The market reaction occurs amid ongoing tension between President Donald Trump, who demands lower interest rates, and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, whose policy decisions are under scrutiny. Despite the rally, traders note significant resistance for Bitcoin between $92.6K and $96K, suggesting the current trading range around $90K-$92K may not persist much longer.
