Prediction for ADA Price: US Inflation and the NASDAQ Will Deliver $0.325

IOHK network updates and US economic statistics may test buyer interest on Friday, following Thursday's high day for ADA.

On Thursday, ADA jumped 1.61 percent. ADA closed at $0.315 on Thursday, partially reversing Wednesday's 2.52% loss. Notably, the price of ADA dropped below $0.310 for the second time in eight sessions and ended a three-session losing trend.

ADA dropped to a morning low of $0.307 after a bearish start to the day. ADA reached a late-day high of $0.316 after avoiding the First Major Support Level (S1) at $0.0305. Nevertheless, unable to surpass the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $0.318, ADA ended the day at $0.315.

Thursday, US economic figures bolstered the likelihood of a December Fed policy shift. During the week ending December 2, initial jobless claims rose from 226 thousand to 230 thousand. Following the release of last week's US Employment Report, concerns about a pick-up in the rate of hiring cast doubt on the Fed's plans to slow the rate of interest rate hikes.

Cardano network improvements were also favorable for the ADA price, averting a drop below $0.300. Charles Hoskinson, the company's founder, was in the limelight, highlighting the benefits of the Midnight privacy protocol meant to provide smart contracts with anonymity.

It was another instance of ongoing activity on the Cardano network, although the information was insufficient to warrant a breakout session.

Input Output HK (IOHK) will provide the weekly Development Update later today. A surge in network projects would result in an increase in ADA prices. However, the NASDAQ and US economic indices will need to provide support. The wholesale inflation and consumer confidence numbers in the United States will impact market risk sentiment.
