US Business Inventories Rise 0.4% in August, Matching Forecast

This is a macro data point with no direct crypto or RWA angle, and the print itself is unremarkable. Its only real relevance is indirect: inventory swings feed into GDP, so a steady build keeps the growth backdrop intact, which in turn shapes the rate expectations that crypto and tokenized-asset markets trade against. Whether the pace of accumulation continues, and how it shows up in the next GDP revision, is the open question.
