Direxion CEO Douglas Yones shared some insights with Benzinga on how <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto">cryptocurrency</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities">commodities</a> could benefit from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/2025-market-outlook-navigating-uncertainty-with-high-yield-strategies/">ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties</a>.
Despite traditional markets facing instability, Yones is optimistic about cryptocurrency's continued rise — especially Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>). 
In 2024, "the top three new ETFs by AUM in the U.S. were all Bitcoin-related, and we expect this trend to continue,&#8221; he says.
President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s pro-crypto administration is expected to play a role in fueling further demand for digital assets. ETFs such as the Direxion Daily Crypto Industry Bull 2X Shares (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMBO#NYSE">LMBO</a>) and the Direxion Daily Crypto Industry Bear 1X Shares (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/REKT#NYSE">REKT</a>) could see increasing interest as investors seek growth in this space.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Commodities As A Diversification Tool</h2>
Commodities are also expected to see heightened demand as a way to diversify portfolios beyond stocks and bonds.
"With U.S. equity valuations at lofty levels and inflation still persistent, commodities can potentially provide added diversification within an overall portfolio," Yones says. 
The Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COM#NYSE">COM</a>) is one such option.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Leveraged And Inverse ETFs For Flexibility</h2>
Traders would be wise to look at leveraged and inverse ETFs, too.
"ETFs, particularly leveraged and inverse ones, offer a flexible way to navigate the ups and downs of the market,&#8221; Yones says.
These ETFs can provide both bullish and bearish exposure. This makes them ideal for those seeking to capitalize on short-term market movements.

Consumer inflation surged for the third straight month in December, rekindling concerns that the months-long cooling of price pressures could be over and casting doubt on the Federal Reserve&#8217;s ability to steer inflation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/inflation">toward its 2% target.</a>
The headline Consumer Price Index rose 2.9% year-over-year in December, according to Wednesday&#8217;s data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This marks an increase from November's 2.7% and matches economist forecasts. Notably, it represents the third straight inflation increase and highest annual rate since July 2024.
On a monthly basis, consumer prices increased 0.4%, up from both the previous month's 0.3% gain and the 0.3% predicted by analysts.
The energy index climbed 2.6% in December, contributing to over 40% of the monthly increase in overall prices, with the gasoline index rising 4.4% during the month.
Core inflation, which strips out the volatile food and energy categories, rose by 3.2% on a year-over-year basis, below the 3.3% estimate. Month-over-month, core prices marked a 0.2% increase, matching estimates.
Items that witnessed an increase in December include shelter, airline fares, used cars and trucks, new vehicles, motor vehicle insurance and medical care.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions: Yields, Dollar Tumble </h3>
Prior to the release of the CPI report, traders priced in one 25-basis-point rate cut by December 2025, according to the CME FedWatch tool.
The mixed December inflation data could keep hopes for more than one rate cut by year-end quite stretched.
Treasury yields tumbled in response to the data, with the policy-sensitive two-year yield down 9 basis points to 4.28%. The U.S. dollar also weakened, with a key index tracking the greenback falling 0.5% during the session.
Equity markets reacted with optimism. Pre-market futures on the S&amp;P 500 rallied 1.5%, while contracts tied to the Nasdaq 100 soared 1.6%. 
On Tuesday, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) inched up 0.1%, while the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) declined 0.1%.

Grab Holdings Limited (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRAB#NASDAQ">GRAB</a>) shares are trading marginally higher <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket" rel="noreferrer noopener">in the premarket session on Wednesday.</a>
The firm has announced a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.grab.com/sg/press/others/grab-and-byd-enter-strategic-partnership-to-expand-electric-vehicle-fleet-offering-across-southeast-asia/" rel="noreferrer noopener">regional partnership</a> with BYD to expand access to up to 50,000 electric vehicles for Grab&#8217;s driver-partners across Southeast Asia, enhancing the availability of green vehicles for its users.
This collaboration aims to overcome the region&#8217;s key barrier to EV adoption: high upfront costs.
This partnership spans six Southeast Asian countries—Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam—and includes models like the DENZA D9, BYD ATTO3, BYD SEAL, and BYD M6.
The DENZA D9, a luxury electric vehicle, will be featured in GrabExec, setting a new standard for executive transportation with its advanced features and sustainability.
Last July, BYD announced a multi-year strategic partnership to add 100,000 new BYD electric vehicles to the&nbsp;Uber platform <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/40077563/uber-and-byd-team-up-for-electric-future-100k-evs-to-hit-the-road" rel="noreferrer noopener">in key global markets.</a> However, the deal with Uber focused on Europe and Latin America, with plans to expand to the Middle East, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

In the latest development with Grab, BYD plans to provide Grab&#8217;s fleet and driver-partners with access to affordable BYD vehicles, including extended warranties for the vehicles&#8217; batteries.
Drivers can choose to rent these EVs through Grab&#8217;s fleet partners or access financing options via Grab&#8217;s car ownership schemes. This partnership aligns with Grab&#8217;s sustainability goals, helping accelerate the transition to zero-emission transportation.
In countries like Singapore and Thailand, Grab users can select an &#8220;Eco-Friendly Ride&#8221; option at no extra charge, prioritizing green vehicles for their rides.
Liu Xueliang, General Manager of BYD Asia Pacific Auto Sales Division, said, &#8220;We are excited to partner with Grab as the leading on-demand transport provider in Southeast Asia and push forward the transition to electric vehicles in the region.&#8221;
Per a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.statista.com/outlook/mmo/electric-vehicles/southeast-asia" rel="noreferrer noopener">report</a> by Statista, the Electric Vehicles market in Southeast Asia is expected to reach $6.798 billion by 2025. From 2025 to 2029, the market is projected to grow at a rate of 4.02% annually. By 2029, the market volume is expected to hit $7.958 billion.
The partnership will also focus on deep technological integration to enhance Grab&#8217;s services. BYD vehicles will integrate with Grab&#8217;s platform through IoT, providing real-time data on driving patterns and behaviors. This data will help improve driver safety and overall experience, with features like larger screens displaying jobs, navigation, and chats directly in the vehicle&#8217;s head unit.
The integration of real-time data, such as weather and traffic conditions, will also help improve ride reliability and route optimization, ensuring better ETA accuracy and efficient navigation.
Price Action: GRAB shares are trading higher by 2.06% to $4.45 premarket at last check Wednesday.
