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.

World Gold Council: Gold prices deliver an annualized return of around 5%, with their long-term trend underpinned by wealth storage demand.

World Gold Council recently released "2026 Insights into China's Gold Jewelry Retail Trends" and answered reporters' questions on the evolution of hard pure gold categories and the transformation of China's gold jewelry consumption structure. Wang Lixin, CEO of World Gold Council China, stated: "Hard pure gold remains the 'sun at eight or nine o'clock'—it will definitely be the future trend, with huge growth potential." China's gold jewelry market is seeing a typical "rising price, falling volume" trend. Council data shows that in the first half of 2026, gold jewelry consumption volume dropped 30% year-on-year to 136 tons, while total consumption value rose 5% to 143.7 billion yuan. Retail stores are continuing to consolidate, and demand for self-use and self-indulgence has climbed for three consecutive years, shifting from "special occasion" consumption to "every moment" consumption. The insights report's judgment on future gold investment trends is as follows: In the short term, it hinges on the tug-of-war between the "hawkish" Federal Reserve and the "dovish" U.S. Treasury; in the medium term, it is supported by central bank gold purchases; in the long term, it is driven by consumer and wealth storage needs stemming from economic growth. Historical data shows that gold's long-term average annual return is stable at around 5%. (21st Century Business Herald)

The world's first AI agent smartphone, nubia NaviX Ultra, is scheduled to launch on September 16.

Insight Beating AI News: Nubia’s NaviX Ultra is scheduled to launch at 14:00 on September 16. The smartphone comes with Doubao Mobile Assistant, which Nubia dubs "the world’s first AI agent smartphone". Unlike last year’s limited-run M153 prototype, this is an officially mass-produced flagship. Its core selling point is AI directly executing operations on the user’s behalf. The official outlines its capabilities as "understands speech, gets things done, remembers, and is secure" – users can voice tasks to have the phone complete multiple operational steps automatically. The NaviX Ultra has completed relevant large model filing and obtained network access approval from China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) on September 1. Another key update from the M153: as previously reported by LatePost, the new device will adjust its collaboration model with major apps like Alibaba and Tencent. Instead of forcing app operations via screen reading and click simulation, it will integrate only after apps proactively open interfaces. This resolves a critical barrier that Doubao Mobile Assistant had to overcome to achieve large-scale commercial use. Pre-orders for the new product are now open; specific hardware specs, pricing, and launch details will be announced at the launch event.

Liquid's white hat hacker says they will return most of the 4000 BTC after the vulnerability is patched.

Galaxy Research Head Alex Thorn stated in a post that the "white hat" attacker behind the abnormal fund transfer incident on the Liquid network is communicating with Blockstream via on-chain OP_RETURN messages and PGP-encrypted communications. The attacker noted that after the Liquid network’s vulnerability is patched, they will return "most" of the roughly 4,000 BTC transferred. At block height 965,822, a Blockstream address sent 1,000 satoshis to a related address with a message requesting contact with Blockstream’s security team. The subsequent block contained a PGP-encrypted message signed with Blockstream’s public key, confirming a communication channel had been established between the two parties. Later, in block 965,869, the attacker sent 1,000 satoshis to Blockstream’s Peg wallet via a self-transfer, asking: "Is it okay to return most of the funds to the Blockstream address?" The attacker further specified that the vulnerability must first be fixed, all nodes must complete the patch upgrade, and funds will be safely returned only after the fix is confirmed. Additionally, the attacker sent PGP-encrypted technical information accessible exclusively to Blockstream’s team. Earlier reports noted that the suspected white hat hacker withdrew approximately 4,000 BTC (valued at around $320 million) from the Liquid Federation wallet via SideSwap PAK (Peg-out Authorization Key).
