The report also showed Core PPI, which excludes food and energy costs, increased 0.8% compared with forecasts for a 0.4% gain.<\/p>\n<p>Minutes after the data release, Bitcoin (BTC) surrendered part of its earlier advance and slipped back toward the $62,500 area after briefly trading above $63,000. Market data showed the move triggered a sharp red candle on the 15-minute chart as traders reacted to the stronger-than-expected inflation figures.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, another macro development added pressure to risk assets.
