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.

Vitalik: DeFi is a crucial part of Ethereum's core values and will reclaim the early DeFi spirit in the future

On February 25, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin took to social media to note that decentralized finance (DeFi) is a critical pillar of Ethereum’s core values. Financial empowerment, he said, is a key dimension of achieving autonomy and freedom in today’s world. While finance isn’t Ethereum’s sole purpose, it is vital. The current DeFi landscape has brought the world’s best savings, risk management, and wealth creation opportunities to global users in a permissionless way. The Ethereum Foundation must continue building on this foundation. What made Ethereum’s early DeFi era great was its willingness to dream big, innovate, and build an entirely new paradigm. DeFi’s future will reclaim this spirit—not just aiming to “build a better stablecoin,” but diving deeper into fundamental issues to propose superior solutions. The Foundation’s support for “on-chain finance” (and even DeFi) is not unconditional. It has a clear vision for DeFi: a permissionless, open-source, privacy-first,

Fed Official: Interest Rate Likely to Remain Unchanged "for Some Time," Further Rate Cuts Would Require Evidence of Inflation Falling to 2% Target

**Tuesday, February 25** Boston Federal Reserve President Susan Collins said recent economic data showing labor market improvement and persistent inflation risks mean interest rates will likely stay on hold for some time. Speaking at a Boston Fed panel discussion Tuesday, Collins noted the labor market is showing “at least somewhat unusual signs of stability” — adding more evidence is needed to confirm inflation is moving toward the Fed’s 2% target. “After cutting rates by 175 basis points cumulatively over the past year and a half, we’re now in a mildly restrictive range that may be quite close to neutral,” she said. “I think it’s likely appropriate to keep the current rate range unchanged for a period of time.” Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee echoed that further rate cuts aren’t justified until there’s consistent proof inflation is falling. Goolsbee said the Supreme Court’s decision to strike down several of former President Trump’s global tariffs could create mo
