Supreme Court Upholds Fed Independence, Trump Vows to Continue Push
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to block Trump's attempt to dismiss Fed Governor Cook. This move is seen as a significant check on the President's attack on the independence of the world's most important central bank. The court had previously limited presidential emergency tariff powers, further reinforcing central bank policy autonomy this time. However, the same ruling also cleared the obstacle for Trump to dismiss Federal Trade Commission (FTC) members without cause, showing the White House has expanded control over some independent regulatory agencies.
Trump subsequently stated that the Supreme Court remanded the case to the lower court based only on procedural grounds and he would take immediate action to ensure "misconducters" no longer participate in major decisions. Market interpretation suggests this case reduces the risk of sudden Fed policy changes in the short term, benefiting long-term interest rate expectation stability, but also highlights the ongoing game between executive and judicial power boundaries.

Trump Announces US-Iran Doha Talks Held Today, Iran Emphasizes Focus on Implementing Memorandum of Understanding
U.S. President Trump stated on the afternoon of June 29 local time that today (June 30) the US and Iran will hold talks in Doha, the capital of Qatar, and US representatives "may have already departed or are preparing to depart." Trump called the talks "possibly important or possibly not important," but emphasized that the US "has won militarily," "oil prices have fallen," and Iran has agreed not to possess nuclear weapons. The White House revealed that Presidential Envoys Witkoff and Jared Kushner will participate.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson clearly stated that Iran will not hold negotiations with the US at any level in the coming days; the technical delegation sent to Doha this week aims to follow up on the implementation of the memorandum of understanding (including Oil export licenses and the release of frozen assets), rather than initiating final agreement negotiations. Israeli Defense Minister Katz stated that the IDF is prepared for independent military action against Iran but will not interfere with Trump's actions for now.
Market Impact: Geopolitical easing expectations heat up, short-term beneficial for risk assets, oil prices under pressure to fall back; if negotiations make substantial progress, it will further weaken safe-haven demand.

SpaceX and Google Drive Record US Stock Issuance in First Half, BofA Warns S&P May See Three-Wave Correction
Bloomberg data shows that as of June 26, total US IPO and stock issuance reached $251 billion, exceeding the record from the first half of 2021. SpaceX and Google's record issuance activities were the main drivers, with AI hyperscalers continuing to seek funds for infrastructure such as data centers.
Bank of America Technology Research Head Paul Ziana warned that the S&P 500 has risen nearly 17% since the March low, but signs of fatigue have appeared since the June 2 high, possibly correcting to 6850 points (about 7.6% drop from current levels). He suggested investors hedge against further rebounds and take a defensive stance in July-September. The rebound after the US-Iran ceasefire has shown volatility, prices are "overstretched," and momentum deteriorating.
II. Market Review
Commodities & Forex Performance
- Spot Gold: 3972 USD/oz, -1.05%
- Spot Silver: 56.9 USD/oz, -2.4%
- WTI Crude: 70.22 USD/bbl, -0.7%
- Brent Crude: 73.52 USD/bbl, -0.5%
- US Dollar Index (DXY): 101.25, -0.11%
Driver Analysis: The start of US-Iran Doha talks and Trump's statement "oil prices have fallen" reinforced expectations of phased geopolitical risk easing, directly suppressing energy prices. Gold and silver fell slightly in an environment of rising risk appetite but remained in a high range, showing long-term inflation and central bank gold buying demand support remains. The US dollar index weakened slightly, reflecting the market's positive interpretation of the maintenance of Fed independence, reducing interest rate hike expectation disturbances in the short term. Overall, asset correlation logic is clear: geopolitical easing → risk assets up → USD and safe-haven commodities under pressure. In the short term, if negotiations proceed smoothly, oil price downside space may open further, but any negotiation breakdown signal will quickly reverse this logic.
Cryptocurrency Performance
- BTC: 59846 USD, +0.31%
- ETH: 1594 USD, +1.33%
- Total Crypto Market Cap: Approx 2.16 trillion USD, +0.8%
- Market Liquidation Situation: 24h total liquidation approx 297 million USD, short liquidation 158 million USD
- Bitget BTC/USDT Liquidation Map: Current BTC price approx 59,815 USD, large short liquidation positions clustered in the 60,800–61,600 USD range above. If holding above 60k USD and continuing to advance, it may trigger concentrated short covering, pushing price acceleration upward. Below long liquidation mainly concentrated in 58,500–59,300 USD, above short liquidation scale significantly larger than below long liquidation, short-term market more concerned about risk of triggering short covering after upward breakthrough.
- Spot ETF Net Inflow/Outflow: BTC Spot ETF net inflow approx $65 million yesterday
Driver Analysis: Driven by the strength of US stock tech and space sectors, the crypto market shows signs of warming risk appetite, with BTC and ETH rebounding simultaneously. ETF fund flows remain hovering at low levels but have stabilized from previous consecutive days of large outflows, showing institutional sentiment repair. Leverage liquidation data is mild, indicating current leverage levels are not high, liquidations mainly come from long profit-taking rather than systemic short squeeze. Technically, BTC found support near 60000 USD, ETH relative strength reflects market preference for Ethereum ecosystem and institutional adoption expectations. Macro level, Fed independence maintenance reduced policy uncertainty, coupled with US-Iran easing signals, jointly constitute short-term beneficial environment. But need to guard against BofA and other institutions' warning on US stock correction, if risk assets overall correct, crypto may face synchronous pressure. Overall trend bullish, but divergence obvious, ETH performs better under AI and institutional narrative support.

- MU: 1,145.28 USD (+1.14%)
- SPCX: 158.52 USD (+3.5%)
Performance Summary and Driver Analysis: Tech giants overall followed Nasdaq strong rebound, but internal divergence appeared. Tesla and Google led gains, the former benefited from comprehensive market risk appetite recovery, the latter may have AI search and cloud business catalysts. Nvidia gains relatively mild, reflecting previous high valuation pressure and HBM supply concerns remain. Amazon and Meta moderate, showing advertising and e-commerce recovery steady but lacking better-than-expected catalysts. Core divergence lies in: AI infrastructure and commercial space theme (SpaceX related concepts) gained fund favor, while pure consumption or traditional tech stocks lagged relatively. Futu Morning Brief mentioned SpaceX and Google issuance boom, further reinforced market long-term allocation willingness for AI and space economy, avoided "one-size-fits-all" interpretation.
