Ether Falls Toward $2,000 After Hot Inflation Print as Meta and Tesla Lead Stock Rebound

Key points

  • Crypto and stocks moved in opposite directions on Tuesday.
  • US consumer prices rose 0.4 percent in October after a 0.6 percent rise in September, Reuters reported.
  • Ether was already weak before the data landed.

Crypto and stocks moved in opposite directions on Tuesday. Ethereum fell 5.66 percent over 24 hours to $2,019.28, down from $2,140.43 in the Orbit Post wire snapshot. Meta rose 5.22 percent to $641.97, up from $610.15, and Tesla rose 4.91 percent to $375.82, up from $358.22, keeping gains from Monday's broad rebound.

Ether drops after the inflation report

US consumer prices rose 0.4 percent in October after a 0.6 percent rise in September, Reuters reported. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast a 0.3 percent rise. Core prices, which leave out food and energy, rose 0.3 percent against a 0.2 percent forecast. Reuters said the report left the Federal Reserve on course to raise interest rates next month, and the Labor Department published no annual rate because last year's shutdown stopped data collection in October 2025.

Ether was already weak before the data landed. CoinDesk reported that ether fell to around $2,100 early on Tuesday after US spot ether exchange traded funds lost $184.6 million on Monday, citing Farside Investors. Crypto.news put the same Monday outflow at $184.51 million, citing SoSoValue. After the report, ether extended the fall toward $2,000.

Meta and Tesla ride the Monday rebound

Stocks rallied hard on Monday. The S and P 500 rose 2.35 percent to 7,549.94, its best day since April, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 1,104.02 points to 52,389.75, and the Nasdaq Composite rose 2.74 percent to 25,253.14, according to reports from Reuters and the Associated Press. Brent crude fell 5.8 percent to $92.57 a barrel after President Donald Trump told CNN that new strikes on Iran were highly unlikely if talks progress. Chip stocks rose 6.9 percent after falling more than 12 percent last week.

Meta had its own driver. JPMorgan added Meta to its Analyst Focus List as a preferred internet stock, replacing Alphabet, in a note by analyst Doug Anmuth cited by CNBC, which pointed to strength in AI powered advertising. Tesla rose with the rebound and after Elon Musk confirmed plans to wind down Cybertruck assembly at Gigafactory Texas to make room for Cybercab robotaxi production, in statements carried by Reuters.

What happens next

Traders now face the December Federal Reserve meeting, with the hot print raising bets on another rate increase. For ether, the next test is whether fund outflows slow and the $2,000 level holds. For stocks, it is whether cheaper oil keeps supporting the rebound. This article is information only and is not financial advice.
