PANews reported on February 3rd that, according to Cointelegraph, the US ISM Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) unexpectedly rose above 50 in January, the first time since mid-2022. This data has sparked differing opinions among analysts regarding the "reflation" trade and its impact on Bitcoin prices. Andre Dragosch, Head of European Research at Bitwise, believes the PMI rebound is a result of significant increases in gold and silver prices, signifying the formation of a "reflation" environment, which historically has often been accompanied by Bitcoin bull markets. Trader Michaël van de Poppe pointed out that while the PMI broke 50 for the first time in three years, this is not necessarily positive for the business cycle or Bitcoin; previous Bitcoin gains were mainly attributed to liquidity from ETFs, and the market is only now beginning to truly react.

However, trader Titan of Crypto holds a different view. He compared PMI data with Bitcoin price movements, pointing out that when the PMI rose above 50 in 2013, 2016, and 2020, Bitcoin exhibited a hidden bullish divergence, subsequently initiating a bull market; while this current PMI rebound is accompanied by a typical bearish divergence. He believes that the same indicator with different structures can lead to different results. The current data paints an unclear picture of the US inflation path, and the market is concerned that inflation may rebound in 2026.

Frank Sinatra’s The World We Knew returns to the Jazz Albums and Traditional Jazz Albums charts, showing continued demand for his timeless music. Frank Sinatra performs on his TV special Frank Sinatra: A Man and his Music Bettmann Archive These days on the Billboard charts, Frank Sinatra’s music can always be found on the jazz-specific rankings. While the art he created when he was still working was pop at the time, and later classified as traditional pop, there is no such list for the latter format in America, and so his throwback projects and cuts appear on jazz lists instead. It’s on those charts where Sinatra rebounds this week, and one of his popular projects returns not to one, but two tallies at the same time, helping him increase the total amount of real estate he owns at the moment.
