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.

Poll: Trump Approval Rating Holds Steady at 37%, Public Opinion Divided on Military Action amid US-Iran Agreement

WASHINGTON, June 20 (AP) — President Donald Trump’s approval rating stands at 37% in the latest AP-NORC poll, holding steady from the prior month and showing no meaningful shift following the U.S. and Iran’s preliminary agreement to end their war. The survey, conducted June 11 to 17 among roughly 3,040 U.S. adults, has a margin of error of ±2.8%. Trump’s approval rating for his handling of the Iran conflict also remains stable, staying at 34%. Still, 53% of respondents say the U.S. has been “too aggressive” in its military actions toward Iran. That figure is 6 percentage points lower than in March, though it still represents a clear majority of those polled. Even with the preliminary ceasefire between the two nations and short-term economic relief including falling oil prices, the public retains significant skepticism about the conflict’s stated objectives and the effectiveness of related policies, the poll finds. Since the U.S. military launched actions against Iran in Feb

SpaceX's quarterly launch capacity accounts for 86% of the global total, Musk says Starship will surpass all competitors by a factor of 100 post mass production

**June 20, 2026** In the first quarter of 2026, total global space launch mass hit roughly 647,000 kilograms, representing an 18% year-over-year increase. SpaceX led all operators with 556,000 kilograms—more than 13 times the amount of the second-place competitor—cementing its status as the source of around 86% of the world’s total launch capacity. Elon Musk commented on the milestone, stating: “Once Starship achieves a per-hour launch cadence, SpaceX’s orbital mass delivery will be approximately 100 times that of all other operators combined, even if those operators triple their current launch frequency.” While Starship hasn’t yet entered high-frequency commercial operation, SpaceX already holds overwhelming dominance via its Falcon rocket series. Analysts point out that once Starship is fully operational at scale, the global space landscape will undergo a historic transformation.

US-Iran Agreement Causes Chaotic Progression: Hormuz Strait Terms Unclear, Ceasefire Negotiations Temporarily Halted

**June 20 (New York) — Per a *New York Times* report, the preliminary U.S.-Iran agreement has hit significant roadblocks in its early stages, with critical details still unresolved — including whether the Strait of Hormuz will remain open to free navigation and other core terms.** Less than a week after the agreement was announced, it’s already sparking sharp disagreements: planned signing or negotiation sessions in Switzerland were scrapped, U.S. Vice President JD Vance’s trip to the country was abruptly canceled, and further talks have been pushed back indefinitely. The Swiss Foreign Ministry noted that preparations for the planned negotiations are still underway, but the process is currently suspended with no timeline for resumption. The pact itself also faces major uncertainties. The U.S. and Iran hold conflicting interpretations of its terms: the U.S. claims the deal includes concrete commitments, while Iran has not formally confirmed those details. Key issues — including ar

U.S. Intelligence: Israel Could Sabotage U.S.-Iran Deal

June 20 — Several U.S. intelligence agencies have issued a warning to the Trump administration that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may take actions to undermine President Donald Trump’s efforts to broker a long-term peace agreement with Iran, according to The Washington Post, which cited multiple current and former U.S. officials. Netanyahu is facing intense domestic political pressure and has been forced to continue military operations in Lebanon. A U.S. official who reviewed the intelligence report told The Post that the latest U.S. intelligence assessment concludes: ahead of Israel’s fall general election this year, Netanyahu’s ability to retain the prime minister’s post depends on convincing his constituents that he will not withdraw from Lebanon and is determined to escalate tensions with Hezbollah. The U.S. intelligence report also notes that Israel is deeply dissatisfied with the terms of Trump’s proposed peace reconciliation memorandum, which it claims undermin

Global Tech Frenzy, Public Offerings Accelerate in Korean Market

June 19 — As the global AI industry continues to boom, South Korea’s tech sector has been drawing steady cross-border capital inflows thanks to its unique attributes. Against this backdrop, fund companies are rolling out a range of South Korea-themed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) while active equity QDII products have gradually increased their South Korean holdings. Industry insiders point out that South Korean stocks currently trade at lower valuations than U.S. equities. Coupled with long-term tailwinds from the global AI sector, there remains upside for market valuation recovery. However, amid recent speculative trading in South Korea-themed ETFs, some fund firms have also started to alert investors to related risks.

After US-Iran Preliminary Agreement, Hormuz Strait Reopens to Shipping, Partially Stranded Vessels Start to Transit

June 19 – The Washington Post reports that vessel traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy transit chokepoint, is gradually returning to normal. This shift follows a preliminary agreement between the U.S. and Iran and the lifting of all restrictions on the key maritime passage. Earlier tensions had left some shipping vessels stranded in the Persian Gulf since February. Now that tensions have eased, those vessels are cautiously transiting the Strait of Hormuz again. The resumption of navigation here is widely seen as a significant sign of regional de-escalation.
