ChainCatcher news, influenced by Microsoft's withdrawal of two data centers, Wall Street is concerned that AI infrastructure may face the risk of oversupply. Additionally, Trump's claim that tariffs on Canada and Mexico will continue further undermines market confidence. According to 4E monitoring, major U.S. stock indices saw more declines than gains that day, with the Dow Jones closing up 0.08%, the S&P 500 closing down 0.50%, and large tech stocks collectively falling, dragging the Nasdaq down 1.21%.

The cryptocurrency market collectively plummeted under the lead of U.S. stocks. Lawmakers in South Dakota delayed a vote that could allow the state to invest in Bitcoin, effectively killing the bill and further dampening market sentiment. Bitcoin fell below $91,000, hitting a new low since February, and then slightly rebounded, currently reported at $92,245, down 3.77% in 24 hours.

Ethereum and altcoins saw significant declines. Previously, the market expected Bybit to buy back ETH to replenish wallet funds, which boosted ETH's rebound. However, market news indicated that the ETH gap had been fully closed through loans and over-the-counter trading, leading to a decline in ETH. This morning, driven by the broader market, it fell below $2,500, down 11% in 24 hours. The meme momentum cooled, with Solana's price dropping below $140, marking the lowest since October, down 15% in 24 hours.

In the forex commodities sector, concerns about weak U.S. economic growth led to a 0.07% drop in the dollar index. The U.S. announced a new round of sanctions on Iranian oil exports, with international oil prices rising over 0.4%. Increased demand for safe-haven assets and a weaker dollar supported spot gold, which rose over 0.53% to set a new high, with gold prices up over 12% this year, as investors focus on the $3,000 mark.

Current market sentiment is relatively fragile, with deadlines approaching. Trump's tariff policies on Canada and Mexico, along with further signs of weakness in U.S. economic data, create uncertainty in the market, increasing risk aversion. Upcoming key events, such as Nvidia's earnings report on Wednesday, U.S. GDP data on Thursday, and the Fed's preferred inflation indicator PCE data on Friday, may all impact the market.
