Live updates: Bitcoin back under $81,000 as AI selloff worsens
September inflation came in above forecasts and the selloff in AI stocks picked up speed, dragging bitcoin back toward last week’s low.
Why it matters
BTC (Bitcoin) · Why linked: Bitcoin is directly mentioned as falling back below $81,000 amid the AI-driven selloff. Market context: Trading near the prior week's low reflects risk-off pressure spilling over from AI equities.
NVDA (NVIDIA) · Why linked: AI selloff leadership drags tech and crypto; Nvidia is a bellwether AI stock. Market context: Accelerating AI stock weakness amplifies risk-off sentiment across tech and crypto.
SPY (SPDR S&P 500 ETF) · Why linked: Hotter-than-expected September CPI is driving a broader equity selloff and tighter financial conditions. Market context: Above-forecast inflation raises stagflation concerns and pressures broad equity multiples.
TLT (20+ Year Treasury) · Why linked: Hot CPI data reduces odds of near-term Fed rate cuts, weighing on long-duration Treasuries. Market context: Stubborn inflation lowers duration appeal and could push long-end yields higher.
