$SHIB price action

At the time of writing, $SHIB was up 1.81% in the last 24 hours to $0.000005945 as the broader crypto market rebounded after a selloff at the week's start following hawkish Federal Reserve commentary and stronger-than-expected economic data.

Hawkish comments from Federal Reserve Governor Michael Barr, who said in a speech on Wednesday that "further policy adjustments" can be expected to bring inflation down to target, had impacted the markets.

Investors adjusted expectations amid indications of a potential rate hike in October. The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index showed that year-ahead inflation expectations leapt to 4.6% in September, rising from 4% in August and marking the highest reading since June.

Shiba Inu recovered from a low of $0.00000554 reached in Wednesday's selloff to reach $0.00000602 early Saturday, marking two straight days of increases.
