Measured by Clometrix
Cardano's volatility ratio was 1.62x, against 1.10x for a typical Balance of Trade release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 0.97x, against a typical 1.26x. That is a strong reaction by this release's own standard. 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 Cardano moved
Cardano was at $0.5808 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 1.05% higher, and an hour later 1.48% higher. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 1.7% of its price, against 0.81% in the hour before.
The release
Released by the Bureau of Census, Bureau of Economic Analysis on 7 June 2022 at 8:30 AM EDT. The deficit narrowed to $82.9B for April 2022, from $99.4B (The International Trade Balance in Goods and Services).
It arrived at the same moment as International Imports in Goods and Services and International Exports in Goods and Services, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.
What made it matter
Since 2021, Balance of Trade releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Cardano about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.07x across 23, against 1.19x across 47. This one came out 8 days before the Federal Reserve's 15 June rate decision. Its own ratio of 1.62x compares with 1.07x for those, so it moved the price more than its circumstances alone would suggest.
Its record
Across 70 Balance of Trade releases since 2021, Cardano's median volatility ratio is 1.10x.
How it compares
Across 70 Balance of Trade releases since 2021, Cardano's usual price swing is 1.10x. This one was 1.46 times the usual.
Thin line: Balance of Trade's usual, 1.10x. Thick line: this release, 1.62x.

What is the International Trade Balance in Goods and Services?
The balance of trade (BOT) measures economic transactions between a nation and its trading partners, showing the difference between the value of a country's imports and exports for a given period. The BEA and Census Bureau reports on the U.S. balance of payments (BOP), covering goods and services that move in and out of the country. Economists use this information to gauge the relative strength of a country's economy. When exports are higher than imports, it tends to boost GDP. In the opposite scenario, it creates a trade deficit.Questions about this page
