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.

Trump: Raises Global Tariffs from 10% to 15%

**February 22** — Donald Trump tweeted Thursday that the Supreme Court’s tariff ruling from the prior day was “absurd and inept.” As U.S. President, he declared he will immediately hike the 10% global tariff on many countries to a “legally sound, lawfully verified” 15%. He accused those nations of having “exploited” the U.S. for decades without repercussions — “until I took office.” In the coming months, the Trump administration will identify and announce new legitimate tariffs, continuing its push to “make America great again — greater than ever before.” Separately, on Wednesday (February 21), Trump signed a new tariff document imposing a 10% import tariff on goods from all countries. The measure will take effect at 12:01 a.m. EST on February 24, with additional implementation details to be released within 150 days.

Vitalik: Leveraging Personal Liquid Democracy to Address Decentralized Governance Attention Crisis

On February 21, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin noted that AI governance poses dystopian risks: weak AI could spark chaos, while strong AI might have catastrophic outcomes. But if used responsibly, AI can empower humanity and advance decentralized governance models. The core challenge of decentralized governance (including Ethereum-based DAOs) stems from human attention limits: users face thousands of decisions across countless fields, and most lack the time or expertise to master even one area, let alone all. Delegation is a common workaround, but it dilutes decision-making power. This attention gap can be addressed via Personal Liquid Democracy, with two key mechanisms: 1. **Personal Governance Proxy**: When a governance system demands frequent user decisions, a personal proxy can vote on the user’s behalf—drawing on inferred preferences from their writing, chat logs, direct statements, etc. 2. **Public Deliberation Proxy**: Sound decisions rarely rely on linear proce
