Data Analysis
The release
Released by the Bureau of Census, Bureau of Economic Analysis on 4 May 2022 at 8:30 AM EDT. The International Imports in Goods and Services rose to $347.7B for March 2022, from $321.7B in February 2022.
It arrived at the same moment as International Trade Balance in Goods and Services and International Exports in Goods and Services, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.
Measured by Clometrix
Ethereum's volatility ratio was 1.21x, against 1.25x for a typical International Imports release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 1.48x, against a typical 1.41x. Under 1.5x is not a reaction at all: the market barely noticed this release. Both compare the quarter hour of the release with an ordinary quarter hour that same day, where 1.00x is no change: volatility is how far the price ranged, volume how much traded.
How Ethereum moved
Ethereum was at $2,855.60 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 0.12% higher, and an hour later 0.37% higher. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 0.73% of its price, against 1.04% in the hour before.
What made it matter
Since 2021, International Imports releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Ethereum less than those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.14x across 23, against 1.39x across 47. This one came out on the day of the Federal Reserve's 4 May rate decision. Its own ratio of 1.21x compares with 1.14x for those, about what its circumstances would suggest.
About International Imports in Goods and Services
