ChainCatcher news reports that, according to 4E monitoring, Trump's tariff plan is much more aggressive than the market expected, triggering strong investor concerns about a full-blown trade war leading to an economic recession. On Thursday, all three major U.S. stock indices fell sharply, with the Nasdaq dropping 5.97%, marking the largest single-day decline since March 2020; the S&P 500 fell 4.84%, and the Dow Jones dropped 3.98%, both the largest single-day declines since June 2020. Major tech stocks plummeted, as tariffs are expected to impact the supply chain, with Apple falling over 9%. The market capitalization of the "Magnificent 7" evaporated by about $1 trillion in a single day, reaching its lowest point since early August last year.The cryptocurrency market also saw a widespread decline. Bitcoin fell from a high of $88,000 before the tariff announcement to nearly $81,000, a significant drop, but still relatively strong compared to tech stocks. Various sectors of the market experienced widespread losses, with the overall cryptocurrency market capitalization dropping nearly 8%. The crypto fear and greed index, which had recovered in March, fell back into the "extreme fear" range.The foreign exchange and commodity markets were also affected, with the dollar index falling 1.61% to its lowest level since October 2024, erasing all gains since Trump's election; the outlook for slowing global economic growth caused oil prices to plummet nearly 7%, marking the largest single-day decline since July 2022. Spot gold prices fluctuated narrowly, remaining basically flat compared to the previous trading day.Trump's tariffs have caused a bloodbath in the financial markets, and the non-farm payroll report for March is set to be released tonight.

ChainCatcher message, "If the U.S. government implements these higher tariffs without significant exemptions, the economy will have a hard time digesting this. A recession seems more likely to occur," said Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody's Analytics. Zandi stated, "In many ways, the tariffs announced by Trump are even worse than the worst-case scenario he envisioned. If they stick to it, I would buckle up and prepare for the impact."

ChainCatcher news, Federal Reserve Governor Adriana Kugler stated early Thursday that it is appropriate to maintain the current interest rate level until the risks of rising inflation subside. In her prepared remarks, she pointed out that changes in government policy, the recent stagnation in the cooling of inflation, and rising inflation expectations are key reasons for maintaining policy patience."As long as the risks of rising inflation persist, while economic activity and employment remain stable, I will support maintaining the current policy rate." Although the theoretical impact of a one-time tariff on inflation should be temporary, if it affects multiple areas of the economy and further raises inflation expectations, its impact may be more lasting.Data shows that inflation levels have improved little recently since reaching a 40-year high in 2022. A University of Michigan survey indicated that long-term consumer inflation expectations rose to a 32-year high in March. Kugler emphasized the importance of stabilizing inflation expectations, noting that both short-term and long-term inflation expectations have risen recently.

ChainCatcher message, encrypted KOL 0xWizard posted on platform X discussing today's ACT price crash event. He stated: "Binance adjusted the rules, only giving three hours for market makers to close positions actively or passively, leading to a chain liquidation and a sell-off. From the initial position in ACT to being listed on Binance, and then to hitting stop-loss in spot trading, the maximum floating profit exceeded 10 million dollars, and today the overall profit after being hit was 1 million dollars. This is a lesson worth 10 million dollars."

ChainCatcher news, according to Matrixport analysis, the correlation between the rise in global liquidity and the increase in Bitcoin prices has certain limitations. The global liquidity indicator, measured by the total money supply of 28 central banks (in USD terms), although visually correlated with Bitcoin price trends, has its predictive accuracy questioned due to the non-stationarity of the time series and scale differences.The analysis points out that while the growth of money supply may have a lagging effect on the Bitcoin market, this lag time lacks strong theoretical support. Furthermore, although the correlation between Bitcoin and Nasdaq has slightly increased in recent years, it remains below the 60% peak during COVID, indicating that Bitcoin trading is more driven by its own dynamics rather than acting entirely as a proxy asset for tech stocks.Matrixport believes that the broad consolidation of Bitcoin prices may continue, and solely relying on liquidity indicators to predict market trends may not be reliable enough. In contrast, focusing on native driving factors of cryptocurrencies or macro variables with direct policy impacts (such as political leaders supporting cryptocurrencies) may be more valuable. Although market perceptions may have mathematical flaws, their widespread acceptance could still have a tangible impact on market behavior.

ChainCatcher news, International Monetary Fund (IMF) spokesperson Julie Kozack stated on Thursday that the organization is continuing to assess the impact of U.S. President Trump's tariff plan (including the new 25% auto tariff), but its baseline forecast does not anticipate an economic recession in the United States.When asked about Trump's tariff plan at the IMF's regular press conference, Kozack said that tariffs imposed on goods from Canada and Mexico, if sustained, would have a "significant adverse impact" on the economic outlook of those countries, but she declined to provide specific details. She stated that the IMF is continuing to evaluate the impact of the various tariff measures announced by Trump on other regions.

ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi Data, ECB Governing Council member Villeroy stated that the 25% increase in U.S. tariffs in the second quarter has a limited impact on European inflation, but it may lead to a 0.3 percentage point decline in the eurozone's GDP for the entire year.Villeroy mentioned that, in the short term, President Trump's "lose-lose" strategy is harming the United States, as evidenced by the Federal Reserve's downward revision of its forecasts. Trump is undermining the multilateral system, increasing long-term risks to financial order and climate.

ChainCatcher news, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell mentioned the issue of "tariffs" for the first time at a press conference. When asked about the revision of inflation forecasts and how much tariffs impact those forecasts, he stated that it is difficult to analyze how much inflation is driven by tariff policies, but they will work to clarify: "It is clear that a significant portion comes from tariffs."In addition, Powell noted that the policies introduced by the new Trump administration will affect the economy, but he will cautiously avoid making overly definitive judgments about this impact. Analysts pointed out that this might be an attempt on his part, as he stated he would closely monitor monthly data to sidestep external expectations about how all of this will develop.
