Data Analysis
The release
Released by the Bureau of Census on 15 November 2017 at 8:30 AM EST. The Retail Sales Excluding Automobiles came in at -0.1% for October 2017, against 1.6% in September 2017. Retail sales excluding autos are falling, after a rise.
It arrived at the same moment as Retail Sales, Consumer Price Index, Core Consumer Price Index and Core Inflation Rate, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.
Measured by Clometrix
Ethereum's volatility ratio was 1.30x, against 1.43x for a typical Retail Sales Ex Autos release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 1.75x, against a typical 1.51x. 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 $329.37 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 0.19% higher, and an hour later 0.49% higher. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 1.56% of its price, against 1.55% in the hour before.
What made it matter
Since 2021, Retail Sales Ex Autos releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Ethereum about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.39x across 27, against 1.43x across 43. This one was not within two weeks of a Fed decision. Its own ratio of 1.30x compares with 1.43x for those, about what its circumstances would suggest.
