June 17 — In a fresh research note, Guotai Junan Securities has lifted its year-end target for the S&P 500 index from 7,300 points to 7,950 points. The Chinese brokerage points to a "triple bullish resonance" driving the U.S. stock market: easing U.S.-Iran tensions, falling inflationary pressures, and rate-hike expectations that are already fully priced in. The report notes that a likely temporary peace agreement between the U.S. and Iran, paired with improved navigation outlooks for the Strait of Hormuz, is causing a sharp drop in global energy risk premiums. Lower oil prices, in turn, are easing U.S. inflation pressures and refining market expectations for the Federal Reserve’s policy path. Wu Chengquan, Guotai Junan’s stock strategist, stated that current market sentiment has shifted from extreme caution to neutral. AI and semiconductor sectors remain core growth drivers, he added, while cyclical stocks are poised to rebound as geopolitical risks fade — with funds expected to keep

On June 17, the first trading day following SpaceX’s initial public offering (IPO), the company launched options trading, sparking widespread market debate over its extreme volatility and elevated valuation risks. Susquehanna strategist Chris Murphy calculated that current option pricing puts an approximate 15% chance the stock will rally another 50% by September, while also pricing in a roughly 13% likelihood of a 50% drop. Murphy noted SpaceX options saw heavy call option volume that day, ranking among the top five most-traded securities overall. His analysis finds that larger trades took the form of hedging structures: bullish options signal bets on additional sharp upside, while bearish options are used to hedge risks tied to supply unlocks (e.g., post-lockup share releases), valuation pressure, and cooling post-IPO sentiment. He stressed this structure has created a market dynamic of "expensive pricing paired with fat tail risk": both upside tail bets and downside tail hedges ca

June 17 – A Reuters investigation has found that amid rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and the threat of an Iranian blockade, the U.S. military has established an unconventional ship-to-ship (STS) crude oil transfer network to keep Gulf energy exports running. The operation started in early May 2026, with at least 116 oil tankers involved so far, moving roughly 90 million barrels of crude and petroleum products in total. It’s focused on international waters off the UAE’s Fujairah and near Oman’s Sohar port. Satellite images show a recent spike in tanker anchoring there, with up to 10 or more vessel groups operating at once at times. To avoid being tracked in sensitive areas, the ships turn off their AIS transponders and reduce visible signals—tactics similar to Iran’s long-standing sanction-evasion shipping methods, according to informants. The network relies on U.S. coordination for scheduling and surveillance support, including drones, helicopters, and maritime monito

June 17 — A new ETF from Southern Eastview is set to begin trading on June 18, according to latest product materials released by Hong Kong Exchanges (HKEX). Designated with the ticker code 03121, the ETF has a board lot size of 100 units, an entry fee of HK$780, and an annual management fee of 0.99%. Notably, it is the first ETF in the Asia-Pacific region to directly track South Korea’s benchmark KOSPI 200 index using an unleveraged passive investment strategy. On the portfolio front, SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics together account for roughly 62% of the fund’s holdings — a concentration far higher than that in U.S.-listed DRAM-related ETFs and the iShares MSCI Korea ETF (ticker: EWY). This gives the fund significant exposure to Korea’s dominant pair of storage semiconductor giants. The remaining holdings include other top Korean blue-chip stocks such as Samsung SDI, Hyundai Motor, and Doosan Heavy, covering key sectors of South Korea’s core real economy. Driven by the artificial i
