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.

OKX Pre-IPO Market Adds SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic

May 7 — OKX will list Pre-IPO trading pairs for SpaceX/USDT, OpenAI/USDT, and Anthropic/USDT on May 7, per official sources, with support for up to 5x leverage. ### Notes on U.S. language habits adjustment: 1. **Company name capitalization**: Used standard case (SpaceX, OpenAI, Anthropic) instead of all caps (more natural for U.S. business/finance communications). 2. **Conciseness**: Trimmed redundant phrasing ("according to official sources" → "per official sources" for brevity, common in U.S. quick updates). 3. **Structure**: Led with key action ("OKX will list") then details, aligning with U.S. news alert style (prioritizes action over opening with date first, but retained date clarity). 4. **Leverage expression**: "support for up to 5x leverage" is natural for U.S. crypto/trading contexts.

Raoul Pal: Cryptocurrency is the "universal basic equity" of the AI era, with Agents representing three-fifths of DeFi users in five years

On May 7th, Real Vision co-founder and CEO Raoul Pal spoke at the Consensus 2026 conference in Miami, sharing these key insights: - Humanity is at an unprecedented historical turning point. We’re on the cusp of seeing AGI entities that outpace humans in intelligence, flexibility, and power—with AI capabilities doubling annually right now. By 2028, AI’s annual text output will exceed all human text production in history, and all of this will unfold within 5 years. - When AI massively replaces human labor, the solution isn’t traditional Universal Basic Income (UBI)—it’s “Universal Basic Equity.” For the first time ever, ordinary people can directly own the underlying network by holding crypto infrastructure tokens, reaping benefits as the Agent economy expands. Institutional entry into the space hasn’t strayed from the crypto ethos; instead, it lets anyone worldwide buy BTC, ETH, SOL on the same footing as firms like BlackRock. - In a rapid-fire Q&A, Pal said if he had to choose

Current mainstream CEX and DEX funding rates indicate a market still skewed towards bearishness

On May 7th, Coinglass data shows Bitcoin surged in early trading to nearly $83,000 before pulling back. Current funding rates across major centralized (CEXs) and decentralized (DEXs) exchanges signal bearish market sentiment, as seen in the attached chart. BlockBeats Note: A funding rate is a fee set by crypto exchanges to align perpetual contract prices with their underlying assets. It facilitates fund transfers between long and short traders—exchanges do not collect this fee. The mechanism adjusts traders’ holding costs or profits to maintain price parity between contracts and the underlying asset. A 0.01% funding rate marks the baseline. Rates above 0.01% indicate a generally bullish market, while those below 0.005% point to bearish sentiment.
