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.

A Wall Street syndicate has launched a record $60 billion AI debt financing round to fund Anthropic's chip leasing.

According to a report by the Financial Times, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley began on Monday to distribute portions of a $60 billion debt financing deal to other banks. The financing is intended to support Anthropic’s lease of Google chips and access to AI computing power, marking a record scale for a chip financing transaction. The three banks had previously committed to funding the deal. The financing package includes approximately $42 billion in senior secured loans backed by Broadcom, with syndication distribution now underway. Leveraging Broadcom’s A-level credit rating, this portion of debt could later be sold via private placements or investment-grade bond markets. Another $18 billion in subordinated debt not backed by Broadcom will be rolled out later, with BlackRock having committed to funding roughly $9 billion of that amount. The funds will be used for Anthropic’s 2027 chip orders, with lease payments set to commence after chip delivery. As subordinated debt lenders will directly bear Anthropic’s credit risk, banks may wait until after Anthropic’s planned initial public offering (IPO) before marketing the deal to investors to provide them with more financial disclosures. The deal is seen as a key indicator of market demand for AI-related debt financing.
