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.

According to Yonhap News Agency, Koo Kwang-mo, chairman of LG Group, will hold a face-to-face meeting with NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang in Silicon Valley, U.S. next week to deepen their cooperation in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure and robotics. The meeting comes roughly two months after the two executives’ earlier gathering in Seoul in early June. Sources familiar with the matter said the two sides are expected to discuss potential investment scale and technology development timelines. During their June 8 Seoul meeting, Huang announced that NVIDIA would partner with LG Group on humanoid robots and next-generation data centers. Koo noted at the time that detailed discussions could not be held due to time constraints, prompting Huang to invite him to California for follow-up talks. The Silicon Valley meeting is a continuation and deepening of the Seoul discussions. LG Electronics, an LG Group subsidiary, has already carried out multiple collaborations with NVIDIA in AI data centers and robotics. This direct top-level dialogue will establish a specific framework and roadmap for the two sides’ strategic cooperation in AI infrastructure and robotics.

Optical network startup Lumilens has completed a Series C funding round of over $700 million, with a valuation of $5.51 billion.

Optical network startup Lumilens announced it has completed over $700 million in Series C funding, with a valuation reaching $5.51 billion. The round was co-led by Atreides Management, Bain Capital Ventures, Meritech, Seligman Ventures, and Spark Capital, bringing the company’s total raised capital to over $900 million. Headquartered in San Jose, California, Lumilens designs and manufactures optical and networking products that enable data centers to achieve faster data transmission with lower power consumption. The company said it has been supplying a hyperscale cloud provider under a multi-billion-dollar deal, but declined to disclose the specific name, only confirming the client is one of the four major hyperscale cloud providers. CEO Ankur Singla pointed out: "The bottleneck in AI has shifted from how many GPUs you can purchase to how many GPUs you can connect. Hyperscale cloud providers have told us they need two key things: a significant increase in their existing network’s optical capacity, and a path to connect thousands of GPUs directly into the same cluster." Lumilens also revealed it has recruited executives and engineers from firms including Cisco, Juniper, Meta, Marvell, Lumentum, and Coherent to enhance its expertise in photonics and large-scale networking. The proceeds from this funding round will be used to expand the company’s engineering and manufacturing operations.

A temporary agreement framework on the Strait of Hormuz has been reached, laying the groundwork for the resumption of US-Iran nuclear talks.

According to US media outlet MS NOW, two Middle Eastern diplomats familiar with the negotiations said Oman has agreed to reach a framework deal with Iran to temporarily reopen the Strait of Hormuz. An Iranian government official stated the agreement will establish a new shipping corridor by allowing merchant vessels to enter the Persian Gulf via an Iran-controlled route and exit via an Oman-controlled route. The deal does not include tolls for merchant ships seeking safe passage through the waterway. The proposal is a "temporary agreement" that would lay the groundwork for Washington and Tehran to announce a new ceasefire and restart nuclear talks. Iranian officials added that the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the US will participate in the official announcement of the agreement. A Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) government official said the arrangement has been endorsed by GCC member states. Officials have not yet disclosed when the agreement will be announced. However, whether the US will support the strait management deal depends on final details. A US official noted that Washington will only back a temporary agreement to reopen the strait under the conditions of unimpeded access and no tolls.
