On March 29, Elon Musk announced that Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system is designed to anticipate pedestrian intentions before they step onto the road, rather than merely reacting with post-event braking. According to BlockBeats, Tesla's AI-driven autonomous driving technology is expected to be over ten times safer than human driving.

In addition, Tesla has initiated the construction of a massive semiconductor chip factory in the United States, known as the Terafab project. This facility is set to surpass traditional factories in scale, integrating the production of logic AI chips, memory, and advanced packaging within a single site. The primary goal is to produce between 100 billion to 200 billion chips annually, with an initial capacity of 100,000 wafers per month, which can eventually expand to 1 million wafers per month, significantly exceeding the current output of major manufacturers like TSMC and Intel.

Musk's intention behind this project is to meet Tesla's rapidly growing AI computational demands, providing in-house chips for the Dojo supercomputer, FSD autonomous driving, Optimus robots, and the Robotaxi fleet, thereby reducing reliance on external suppliers such as TSMC and Samsung.

Canada has introduced Bill C-25 on March 26, aiming to prohibit cryptocurrency donations to political campaigns. According to CoinDesk, the bill mandates that recipients of such contributions have 30 days to return, destroy, or convert them.

According to ChainCatcher, the initial proposal aimed to impose a 0.3% transaction tax on crypto trades conducted through service providers and to implement withholding taxes on crypto earnings.The decision to remove these provisions came after strong opposition from various parties.

On March 29, The Kobeissi Letter released a market analysis indicating that U.S. tech stocks have entered a relatively undervalued range. According to BlockBeats, the forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of the S&P 500 Information Technology Index is currently only 4% higher than the S&P 500 Index, marking the lowest premium since January 2019. This premium has decreased by 32 percentage points since October 2025, representing one of the largest recorded discounts.

In summary, U.S. tech stocks are at their cheapest level relative to the broader market in seven years. In contrast, during the peak of tech stock overvaluation in June 2024, the tech sector was approximately 47% more expensive than the S&P 500. Tech stocks are now moving towards being more undervalued than the S&P 500 for the first time since 2017. The Kobeissi Letter suggests that it might be time to consider investing in tech stocks.

BlockBeats notes that based on current market data, the forward P/E of the S&P 500 Information Technology Index remains around 20 times, while the overall S&P 500 forward P/E is approximately 20 to 21 times, indicating a relatively low valuation range in recent years. Historically, when tech stocks experience significant relative valuation declines, subsequent performance tends to vary. However, whether they are "worth buying" requires a comprehensive assessment of macroeconomic conditions, corporate earnings growth, and interest rate trends.

At the Global Unicorn Enterprise Conference, 360 founder Zhou Hongyi addressed the recent popularity of OpenClaw AI. According to PANews, Zhou discussed the potential for tokens to become as accessible and widespread as mobile data for the general public. He explained that while traditional internet infrastructure, such as fiber optics, offers nearly unlimited capacity, allowing user costs to decrease with increased usage, AI operates differently.

Zhou emphasized that AI's core function involves the consumption of computational power and information processing, which follows the principles of information and energy conservation. As tasks become more complex and demands increase, the consumption of computational resources and costs rise accordingly. Tokens, which measure AI's consumption of intelligence and computational power, have a relatively fixed unit price, meaning that higher usage leads to higher costs.

Therefore, Zhou concluded that tokens will never achieve the unlimited monthly usage model seen with mobile data.

The conflict between Israel and Iran has disrupted shipping in the Strait of Hormuz for nearly a month, causing a significant rise in global oil prices. According to Odaily, this surge is impacting the global energy supply chain and leading to a potential rebound in inflation worldwide. The increase in oil prices is expected to affect various industries, including energy, food, transportation, and chemicals, with countries heavily reliant on energy imports, such as Europe, Japan, and India, facing heightened pressure.

The United States, despite being a net energy exporter, may experience entrenched inflation, complicating the Federal Reserve's monetary policy decisions. Over the past three weeks, the average gasoline price in the U.S. has risen by more than 30%, reversing the previous trend of declining inflation and altering market expectations for interest rate cuts.

Prolonged high-interest rates could suppress the U.S. housing market, corporate financing, and stock valuations. This situation is particularly significant in a U.S. midterm election year, as gasoline prices are a sensitive issue for voters. Globally, economic growth may slow down as high oil prices reduce disposable income and non-energy consumption while increasing production costs for businesses.

Trader Eugene has announced that he has exited all his positions due to stop-loss triggers. According to Odaily, Eugene noted that the recent trades did not yield the expected returns and highlighted that the market environment in 2026 is more challenging compared to 2025.

According to BlockBeats, the operation aimed to weaken Iran's weapons production capabilities by targeting numerous storage and production sites.

This operation is said to have further undermined Iran's central systems and operational capabilities.

Anthropic is reportedly testing a new AI model named 'Mythos,' which is described as posing unprecedented cybersecurity risks. According to ChainCatcher, this development could have a direct impact on the cryptocurrency industry. As AI capabilities advance, their role in smart contract auditing, vulnerability detection, and attack automation is expected to increase, potentially intensifying the offensive and defensive dynamics in decentralized finance (DeFi).

Recent events, such as Ripple's AI security upgrades, the Ethereum Foundation's focus on quantum-resistant security, and the Resolv stablecoin's de-pegging due to contract vulnerabilities, highlight the importance of addressing security issues.

Currently, the Mythos model is available only to early access clients due to its high costs and sensitive capabilities, and it is not yet ready for a full release.

Economists suggest that after disappointing employment figures in February—where sectors like construction and leisure and hospitality saw declines possibly due to weather conditions—a rebound in March is likely. Additionally, the healthcare sector may experience job growth as over 30,000 Kaiser Permanente employees return to work following a strike.
