TechFlow news, February 13 — According to The Block, the crypto market rebounded following the release of U.S. CPI data. Min Jung, analyst at Presto Research, said: "The initial reaction to CPI was strong, but as investors adopted a more cautious stance, realizing that more data is needed to confirm inflation trends, the market bounced back."
Rachael Lucas, analyst at BTC Markets, attributed the market recovery to trading bots reacting to stabilized macroeconomic conditions. "Algorithmic trading plays a significant role in these rapid movements. Many bots are programmed to instantly respond to keywords from Powell, CPI data, and other major economic reports. Given recent liquidation-driven volatility, any stabilization in macro conditions could trigger positive buying pressure—especially from these automated strategies."
Lucas explained that markets appear to be moving past tariff-related concerns and digesting the latest CPI data, with prices recovering even in the absence of prominent bullish catalysts. "Risk assets, including cryptocurrencies, are responding positively to stabilizing macro conditions. If liquidity conditions remain supportive, the market may be positioning itself for the next upward move."
