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.

Cursor Extension Store Poisoned: SSH Backdoor Implanted in Claude Code, Affecting Up to 5,000 Users

Beating AI News (Insight) reports: Cursor disclosed that on October 29, a maliciously tampered version of Claude Code 2.1.313 appeared in its extension marketplace. The installer was not created by Anthropic and was listed on the store for roughly 11 hours. Cursor estimates up to 5,000 users were affected and will contact them directly. Security research firm OpenSourceMalware analyzed the incident and found attackers inserted 66 lines of malicious code before the plugin’s legitimate code. The malware executes as soon as the editor loads the extension—no interaction with Claude is required. It collects device details including the computer name, Git email, and public IP, and secretly adds the attacker’s SSH key to the system’s authorized list. The malware then attempts to enable remote login, connect to the attacker’s server via a reverse SSH tunnel, and sets up a background task to run on startup, trying to reconnect every 60 seconds. However, the malicious code contains bugs. Cursor noted most Mac and Windows devices lack the admin privileges needed to enable SSH, so attackers generally cannot log in via the tunnel. Still, adding the malicious key, installing the background script, and exfiltrating device information may succeed. Even devices with SSH enabled are not safe. Cursor has removed the malicious extension, temporarily shut down its entire extension marketplace, and assisted in taking down the attacker’s server. Affected users must check their SSH authorized files for `svc-telemetry` and clean up using the official fix script; uninstalling the extension alone is insufficient, as the backdoor may persist.
