Mars Finance News, June 4th, according to CNBC, the global markets are on the verge of breakthroughs in several key events. As Israel and Lebanon agree to implement a ceasefire, U.S. President Trump states that an agreement with Iran may be reached over the weekend, and SpaceX is set to launch the largest IPO in history next week, investors are betting that many major uncertainties this year are close to being resolved.
On the corporate side, SpaceX has officially set the IPO offering price at $135 per share, corresponding to a valuation of $1.77 trillion, which could make Elon Musk the world's first trillionaire. However, CNBC's statistics on 30 large IPOs over the past 15 years show that new stocks typically experience a significant correction in their first year after listing.
In terms of geopolitics, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu stated that Trump warned Iran that the U.S. might resume full military action if necessary. Despite tactical disagreements between the U.S. and Israel, both sides generally maintain a unified strategy in the Middle East. Meanwhile, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a symbolic resolution limiting the president from continuing military actions against Iran without congressional approval.
Additionally, the European Union announced a long-anticipated "technological sovereignty" plan aimed at reducing dependence on American and Chinese tech giants, but the plan has faced criticism for its insufficient scope. French President Macron invited OpenAI CEO Sam Altman to attend the G7 summit held this month.
According to CNBC, driven by the AI boom, SoftBank's stock price has risen about 70% this year, and the company's market value has surpassed Toyota to become Japan's most valuable company. However, several analysts warn that while SoftBank is heavily betting on OpenAI and AI businesses, its rising debt levels also raise market concerns about liquidity risks.
