4E: US Stock and Crypto Markets Rebound, Focus This Week on US February PCE Price Index

2025.03.24 11:00:34

March 24th. Based on 4E monitoring, during the past week, the dovish remarks from the Federal Reserve and President Trump's statement regarding flexibility in the tariff plan successively boosted stock market confidence. After significant fluctuations, the three major indices closed up collectively for the week: the Dow increased by 1.2%, marking the largest weekly gain in more than two months; the S&P 500 rose by 0.51%, ending a four-week losing streak; the Nasdaq rose slightly by 0.17%, halting the previous four-week decline. However, large-cap tech stocks generally closed the week in a lower position, with Nvidia down by 3.26%, Tesla down by 0.53%, and experiencing a consecutive nine-week decline. The cryptocurrency market witnessed fluctuations but overall showed a mild upward trend. Bitcoin dipped below $81,000 on Tuesday and then rebounded. It surged above $87,000 on Thursday following the dovish comments from the Fed and hit a two-week high. After that, it oscillated around the $84,000 level. This morning, it experienced another rapid increase and was trading at $85,721 before the deadline, with a 3.18% increase in the past 7 days. Other major altcoins saw slight gains, with Ethereum striving to hold above $2,000, and the on-chain meme trend of BNB continued to attract attention. Signs of a market recovery are emerging, and investor sentiment is improving. In the commodities market, the US dollar index rose by 0.34% for the week, marking its first weekly gain this month. Tensions between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East continued to escalate, resulting in a more than 2% increase in crude oil prices for two consecutive weeks. Spot gold rose by 1.31% last week, extending a three-week upward trend. Last week, the Federal Reserve maintained interest rates unchanged, in line with market expectations, with the guidance for two rate cuts still in place for the year. Powell's remarks also brought some comfort to the market. This week, the focus is on the release of the Fed's preferred inflation measure - the PCE Price Index on Friday. Additionally, as the April 2nd "tariff deadline" approaches, market caution remains due to uncertainty. However, once the tariff outlook becomes clearer, the ongoing market turbulence of recent weeks may start to subside. As a financial trading platform that supports cryptocurrency, stock indices, commodities such as gold, and forex assets, eeee.com recently launched a USDT stablecoin financial product with an 8% annualized return, providing investors with a potential hedging option. 4E reminds you to be aware of market volatility risks and to allocate your assets rationally.

Crude oil’s ongoing slump has pushed a whale who opened 60 long positions to exit the market regretfully, incurring a net loss of $2.43 million from multiple prior liquidations.

According to Hyperinsight monitoring, the whale address starting with 0xc278 has completed 61 BRENTOIL trades since trading Brent crude on March 19, of which 59 were long positions and only 2 were short positions, with a long position ratio of 96.7%. The total net loss from all 61 trades is approximately $2.431 million, with positions worth over $1 million accounting for 99.4% of the total loss. Yesterday morning, its Brent long positions triggered a system liquidation again. The entire liquidation closed out 47,600 BRENTOIL long positions, with a liquidation turnover of about $4.046 million, a weighted liquidation price of approximately $84.99, and a total loss of around $275,000. After the liquidation, the address no longer holds any Brent positions. Before the liquidation, BRENTOIL on Hyperliquid dropped from a high of $91.68 to a low of $82.81 on Sunday, with a maximum decline of 9.7%; its final backup liquidation price was about 7.6% lower than the high. This round of decline mainly occurred after Trump said he would suspend a new round of strikes on Iran and that a Middle East ceasefire agreement was near. The whale had three long positions in early April that lost about $882,000, $513,000, and $460,000 respectively, but afterward it still almost only went long on crude oil, repeatedly recording the largest single liquidation on the network.

Coldcard: Destroyed stock of vulnerable firmware, advises affected users to migrate funds as soon as possible.

Bitcoin hardware wallet manufacturer Coldcard tweeted that the past three days have been among the most difficult in the company’s history, with some users losing years of savings. The team has been in constant contact with customers since last Friday, assisting in transferring still-secure funds and providing recovery guidance. The company has now destroyed remaining Coldcard inventory produced using vulnerable firmware and suspended shipments. Satscard, Opendime, and Tapsigner are unaffected. The released patch firmware prevents newly generated mnemonics from being impacted, but old mnemonics created on the vulnerable firmware remain at risk; users are required to create new wallets and transfer their funds. The company temporarily recommends alternative hardware wallets including Bitkey, Ledger, Trezor, Jade, and Bitbox, and urges affected users to retain their devices to support future recovery efforts.

NVIDIA announces that Co-packaged Optics (CPO) has entered mass production, with related concept stocks likely to see a rebound.

Nvidia Senior Vice President Gilad Shainer announced at a recent tech forum that Co-packaged Optics (CPO) has entered mass production. Switches developed by Nvidia in collaboration with its supply chain have begun delivery to key partners and are already deployed internally at the company. Switches equipped with CPO technology are expected to be widely deployed in AI data centers globally starting this year. Shainer noted that the biggest opportunity in the future optical communications market lies in vertical scaling (Scale-up), which requires over ten times the bandwidth efficiency of horizontal scaling (Scale-out). Shainer previously led R&D at Mellanox; after Nvidia acquired the firm, he headed the AI Platform Network Transmission division and co-developed the COUPE silicon photonic packaging platform with TSMC. This announcement helps dispel market concerns over optical communications specification upgrades and boosts the operational outlook for related vendors. It is reported that Nvidia has already integrated CPO into its Spectrum-X switches, with the goal of supporting the upcoming large-scale deployment of the Vera Rubin AI platform, which delivers at least three times the computing speed of the GB300. Trendforce projects that the CPO/NPO market will exceed $39 billion by 2030, with growth momentum accelerating significantly between 2028 and 2029 as vertical scaling drives the adoption of optical interconnects. Separately, according to BIT (bit.com) market data, as of press time, CPO-related stocks posted modest pre-market gains: AAOI rose 2.63%, LITE gained 1.92%, and MRVL increased 2.4%.
