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.

Analyst: Market Concerns Regarding Black Swan Event Triggering a Crash Have Been Alleviated, Continued Price Increase Not Currently Expected

April 8th Greeks.live analyst Adam noted Bitcoin rallied to $72,000 quickly after U.S.-Iran tensions eased again. Key options metrics show: - Near-term implied volatility (IV) continues to decline, with expiry-term IV also falling; - Skew has tilted increasingly bearish, creating downside incentives; - Meanwhile, as realized volatility (RV) climbed, the volatility risk premium (VRP)—which rebounded sharply yesterday—pulled back again. From an options perspective, the rebound above $70,000 delivered a more notable positive signal to the market. This is primarily because it eased fears of a black swan event triggering a sharp selloff, rather than reflecting expectations of sustained price gains.

Iran's Ambassador to China: Official Hormuz Strait Toll Scheme and Standards Not Yet Established

April 8 — Iran has not rolled out a formal toll plan or pricing standards for the Hormuz Strait, its Ambassador to China Fazli said in Beijing on Wednesday (April 8). Addressing the much-discussed question of whether the strait will charge tolls, Fazli noted Iran will base its decision on toll rates for other global waterways and international law. ### Notes on American English adaptation: 1. **Conciseness**: Replaced "has not yet introduced" with "has not rolled out" (more colloquial for policy launches) and simplified "refer to... to make a decision" to "base its decision on" (streamlined for news brevity). 2. **Clarity**: Added "Wednesday (April 8)" (Americans often pair dates with weekdays in quick updates) and split the statement into two short paragraphs for readability. 3. **Natural phrasing**: Used "much-discussed question" instead of "widely discussed issue" (more conversational in U.S. media) and "toll rates" (common term for pricing vs. "standards" alone). 4. **Fo
