Bitcoin enters the November 9–13 trading week with two scheduled U.S. inflation reports and a recent run of withdrawals from American spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds. The first fixed date is Tuesday, November 10, when the Bureau of Labor Statistics is due to publish October’s Consumer Price Index at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time.

The official BLS calendar, checked on November 8, also schedules October’s Producer Price Index for Friday, November 13, at the same time. These are publication appointments for economic data, not scheduled Federal Reserve interest-rate decisions. The October inflation readings have not been released at the time of this report.

The week’s inflation calendar, in local time

  • Tuesday, November 10: October CPI and real earnings, 8:30 a.m. New York time.
  • Friday, November 13: October PPI, 8:30 a.m. New York time.
  • For both releases: 1:30 p.m. UTC and London, 5:30 p.m. Dubai, and 7 p.m. India.

The conversions use Eastern Standard Time, which applies on those dates. Readers following an older calendar entry expressed in U.S. daylight time should check the time zone. BLS updates its schedule when necessary, so the official calendar remains the reference if an appointment changes.

What CPI can tell Bitcoin readers

CPI measures changes in the prices consumers pay for a basket of goods and services. When the release arrives, the month-on-month and year-on-year readings will answer different questions: the former describes the latest monthly change, while the latter compares prices with the same month a year earlier. A lower annual inflation rate still means prices are rising if that rate remains positive.

It is also useful to separate the all-items figure from measures excluding food and energy. The Federal Reserve explains that policymakers examine core measures, individual categories and trends over longer periods rather than relying on one monthly number. Its longer-run 2% inflation goal is defined using the personal consumption expenditures price index, or PCE, rather than CPI.

For crypto readers, the connection is expectations about monetary policy and financial conditions. A new price report can change that discussion, but it does not mechanically determine the next policy decision or Bitcoin’s next move. This preview does not assign a consensus forecast or an upside or downside price target. Our guide to reading CPI and Fed decisions explains why the release, market expectations and eventual policy response must be evaluated separately.

ETF flows provide a different demand check

The latest completed five-session window offers a separate baseline. Farside Investors’ current table shows net U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF outflows of $398.6 million on November 2, $115.6 million on November 3, inflows of $74.6 million on November 4, and outflows of $430.2 million and $411.9 million on November 5 and 6. Adding those daily totals gives a $1.2817 billion weekly net outflow.

The figures were rechecked on November 8 and can be revised by the data provider. The Token Press’s separate report on that outflow week examines the concentration in BlackRock’s IBIT. The week-ahead question is whether subsequent completed sessions show continued net redemptions or a change across funds, not whether a single intraday price move proves institutional buying or selling.

Net fund flows are different from exchange trading volume and changes in assets under management. A fund’s assets can fall because Bitcoin’s price falls, even without an equivalent redemption. Our ETF flow guide walks through that distinction.

Keep the observations on the same timeline

Tuesday’s inflation result will describe October consumer prices. Friday’s producer-price release will provide another view of October pricing. New ETF rows will describe activity for their stated U.S. trading dates. Comparing those records requires their actual observation periods, rather than treating every number published in the same week as a simultaneous signal.

The practical checklist is therefore narrow: verify the release time, read the full inflation breakdown, and wait for complete dated ETF totals. The calendar identifies when new evidence is due. It does not establish a trade or guarantee a market reaction.
