On Sept 11, Polymarket data shows the market asking whether Bitcoin would be above $78,000 resolved near 99% on $375,605 of volume. A second market asking if the price would stay above $76,000 settled near 100% on $259,646 of volume. A third contract checking the $74,000 level also resolved near 100% on $253,894 of volume.

These resolutions followed a week where Bitcoin oscillated between $76,000 and $80,000 after a roughly 25% rally in August. The coin had previously broken above $80k on Aug 25 before pulling back following a Jackson Hole speech that pushed September rate hike odds to around 60%. [^5][^8]

While crypto markets stabilized, broader inflation data remained stubborn. On Aug 14, the Labor Department said the US consumer price index rose 3.4% year-over-year in August, matching July, while monthly inflation accelerated to 0.4% from 0.1%. [^6]

In a separate move, UBS upgraded Eaton Corporation to Buy on Sept 8, raising its price target to $515 and projecting a 46% increase in earnings power over the next two years.
