CoinDesk Podcast Network - BREAKDOWN: Slightly Hot Inflation Print Probably Won’t Change the Fed’s Perspective

Year-over-year CPI came in at 6.4% compared to an expected 6.2%.

On today’s episode, NLW updates on the Paxos situation. Paxos made a statement that it is willing to fight the Securities and Exchange Commission in court over whether BUSD is a security. The main part of the episode is focused on January’s inflation data, which came in slightly higher than expected. NLW argues it’s not enough for the Federal Reserve to consider shifting course.
