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.

A prominent trader says that if Bitcoin breaks through $83,000, it could trigger a short squeeze that would push the cryptocurrency to $95,000.

Well-known trader Killa stated that based on higher time frame structures, he is roughly 80% confident Bitcoin has formed a bottom. However, strictly following technical confirmation standards, the current trend has not yet fully shifted, as BTC has failed to reclaim and hold above the $83,000 high on the weekly timeframe. $83,000 is the key level to confirm a substantial trend reversal. If Bitcoin breaks above this range and secures market acceptance, traders should avoid blindly shorting subsequent rallies, as bears could face significant short squeezes that push prices toward $95,000. In the short term, he anticipates the market will remain range-bound.

Analysis: Bitcoin's next price movement may hinge on PCE data, Nvidia's earnings report, and Waller's remarks.

Bitcoin’s next move may hinge on three key events this week: the U.S. July PCE inflation data, NVIDIA’s second-quarter financial results, and remarks from Federal Reserve Chair Warsh at the Jackson Hole Symposium. After surging from around $63,000 to above $80,000, Bitcoin has now pulled back to below $79,000, with its 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) exceeding 70, indicating a short-term overbought condition. Markets expect the U.S. July core PCE to rise 3.2% year-over-year and 0.18% month-over-month, compared to 3.3% YoY and 0.13% MoM in June. A hotter-than-expected reading could reignite fears of Federal Reserve rate hikes, putting pressure on Bitcoin and the broader crypto market. CME FedWatch data shows the bond market currently assigns a nearly 38% probability to a 25-basis-point Fed rate hike in September. NVIDIA will release its second-quarter earnings after the market close on Wednesday. A strong beat on results could ease market concerns over AI capital expenditures relying on debt financing, and support risk assets. Since the start of 2025, the 90-day rolling correlation coefficient between Bitcoin and NVIDIA’s stock price has remained above 0.5 for most of the period. Traders will also be watching Warsh’s remarks on Friday. The U.S. Treasury’s recent plan to increase long-term Treasury repurchases to curb yield rises has been viewed by markets as a catalyst driving Bitcoin’s recent rally. Markets will monitor whether Warsh adjusts his previous stance favoring market-based pricing, and whether he expresses support for the Treasury’s related actions.
