March 11 - While inflation met expectations last month, it remained stubbornly high, driven by rising gasoline prices. This inflation report reveals the true state of U.S. consumer prices before the energy cost surge triggered by the Iran war. However, the data released Wednesday was overshadowed by the conflict that erupted following the February 28 U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran. Oil prices fluctuated wildly due to the rare blockade of shipping lanes through the Persian Gulf. Gasoline prices have already jumped significantly, and prices are expected to rise further when this months inflation data is released in early April. Laura Rosner-Warburton, senior economist at MacroPolicy Perspectives, predicts that Marchs month-over-month inflation could rise as much as 0.8% or 0.9%, which would be the largest monthly increase in nearly four years, easily pushing the annual inflation rate above 3% and close to 4%.Market news: The US dollar strengthened after the release of US CPI data, and the foreign exchange sentiment index fell to its lowest level of the day.Japans Ministry of Industry and Trade: If an agreement is reached on a coordinated release of oil reserves led by the International Energy Agency, the oil that Japan plans to release will be included in that total.Senator Scott, Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, said he spoke with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell about testifying and recommended that Powell appear in court to testify.On March 11th, analyst Justin Lahart stated that US inflation is largely in line with expectations; the current issue is how long oil prices will remain high. The market is currently focused on the extent of the oil price surge, but for the broader economy, a more important question may be where prices will stabilize within a year. A sharp, rapid reversal can be absorbed, leaving a relatively small lasting impact on inflation readings and allowing the Federal Reserve to refocus on the health of the labor market. However, persistently high oil prices will be difficult to shake off. This is because it will give supply chains time to lock in high costs, squeezing profit margins of companies already burdened by tariffs and leading some companies to consider raising prices for consumers. In this scenario, the Federal Reserve may face a difficult trade-off between trying to control inflation and protecting economic growth.

Binance Net Withdrawals May Have Reached $12 Billion

According to Forbes, Binance is rapidly losing assets

Forbes reports that despite the recovery in the cryptocurrency markets after the demise of the FTX exchange, the situation with Binance withdrawals has not yet normalized.


According to Forbes, Binance lost $12 billion in assets as a result of consumers continuing to withdraw money from the exchange. Interestingly, along with other cryptocurrencies, Binance's native cryptocurrency, BNB, just saw a significant recovery. The market value of Binance's stablecoin, BUSD, dropped from its November highs at the $23 billion mark to its current level of $16.4 billion.


According to Forbes' estimates, investors were lowering their exposure to Binance. As Binance is without a doubt the best centralized exchange, this is significant for the whole cryptocurrency industry. The business may have trouble luring in fresh capital if cryptocurrency investors continue to worry about the security of their money.


Markets for cryptocurrencies are rising at the start of the week.


It seems that cryptocurrency traders have now become used to the steady stream of bad news. The Forbes article on Binance received little response from the market, and cryptocurrencies kept on rising.


Ethereum surged in the direction of $1350 while Bitcoin stabilized over the $17,300 mark. Solana, which languished after the demise of FTX but recently had significant support, surpassed the $16.00 mark.


Whether withdrawals from the Binance exchange will exert any meaningful impact on the cryptocurrency market in the near future remains to be seen. In the past, Binance has said that it has no debt and that user assets were always fully supported.


It seems that the market thinks the exchange has no significant issues. Due to Binance's prominent position in cryptocurrency trading, the crypto markets may come under tremendous pressure if Binance displays any significant symptoms of weakness.
