Broad Recovery Across Memory Chips: SK hynix Gains 5% and SanDisk Turns Positive as AI Demand Offsets Concerns
After undergoing a period of volatile consolidation, the semiconductor sector showed a significant recovery-driven rally today. This broad-based rise was not an isolated market fluctuation, but rather a concentrated reflection of improving risk appetite for technology growth stocks. From a macro perspective, the market’s previous concerns over the sustainability of artificial intelligence infrastructure investment are being offset by concrete earnings expectations and the realization

Geopolitical premium fades and weak inventories weigh on oil prices, which plunge over 4% intraday
On Wednesday, the international crude oil market experienced a sharp reversal in sentiment, as bullish forces previously driven by geopolitical panic rapidly retreated under pressure from multiple bearish factors. As the worst-case expectations for supply chain disruptions in the Middle East were materially eased, while weak U.S. inventory data and tightening macro-financial conditions added further pressure, oil prices plunged sharply intraday, with WTI crude falling more than 4% and B...

The Fed raises interest rates by 25 basis points for the first time in three years, with hawkish signals triggering turbulence in global assets
In the early hours of last night, the Federal Reserve ended its three-year cycle of rate cuts or holding rates steady, once again raising the benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points, with the target range settling at 3.75% to 4.00%. The move itself was not unexpected; what truly triggered violent market volatility was the strongly hawkish signal released after the meeting, along with the rare public confrontation between the White House and the Fed. U.S. stocks experienced a deep V-shaped reversal during the session.

Short-term national sentiment is priced in nationally first, yet regulatory disputes in Congress disappear because of a single vote. What is more worth watching next is whether the rules can be broken down and explained clearly.#CLARITY法案未获通过
#CLARITY法案未获通过 CLARITY is stuck this time; short-term sentiment is cooling ahead of fundamentals, but the regulatory path has not disappeared as a result. What truly matters is whether the dispute can be disentangled and the rules clearly explained going forward; during a news vacuum, volatility is often greater than direction. Do you think the next step will be legal reform first or compromise first?

#美联储即将公布利率决定 What the market is really waiting for is not the three words “whether to cut,” but the ordering of inflation and employment in the statement. With oil prices and long-term yields both rising, even if rates are not raised for now, hawkish wording alone would be enough to trigger a repricing of risk assets. My view: the core of this volatility is not the dot plot, but whether the Federal Reserve is willing to provide a timeline for its next shift. Look at the statement first, then the price reaction—don’t let the first candlestick dictate your moves. Are you more focused on the rate
China’s US Treasury holdings shrink again: Does the old “saving the US means saving China” line still hold water?
As of June 2026, China held approximately $633.4 billion in US Treasuries, down about $25.9 billion from May and back to its lowest level since 2008. The peak was around $1.3 trillion in 2013.
This is not an overnight sell-off, but more like a decade-long rebalancing: buying less, not fully reinvesting at maturity, and shifting reserves toward gold and other assets. With such a large position, a rushed sell-off would hurt China first.
Meanwhile, the central bank’s gold reserves sto

Second tier of the trending list: The Fed’s rate decision isn’t out yet—don’t finish pricing in Clarity’s bearish impact just yet
The Square is now seeing two main narratives play out in parallel: Clarity has already taken one hit, while the Fed’s decision is still ahead. Many have priced in the regulatory bearish news all at once, forgetting that the dot plot and post-meeting remarks are the next leg. BTC, ETH, gold, and U.S. Treasuries react at different times, but the driver is often the same macro statement. I’ll continue tracking and breaking it down before and after the decision lands. J

The account abstraction debate has exploded: ETH and Base have fallen out—why is everyone on the public square arguing too?
“Account abstraction” has suddenly surged on the trending charts, with the core issue being amplified disagreements over approaches and standards. It sounds like an infighting episode within the tech community, but once it reaches the secondary market, it becomes: Will the Ethereum ecosystem’s user experience still improve smoothly, and does the Layer2 narrative still hold? Technical disagreements may not necessarily change prices in the short term, but they will change s

Four Republicans Also Voted Against It: Clarity’s Collapse Is More Than Just a “Partisan Brawl”
The vote saw not only Democrats collectively opposing it, but also Republican lawmakers joining the opposition, showing that negotiations broke down on more than one front. Ethics provisions, banking interests, and partisan infighting combined to pin the bill down. For crypto: the short-term narrative has shifted from “regulatory tailwinds are within reach” back to “the battle continues.” Crypto-related stocks, futures sentiment, and spot prices will all reflect expectations first, and reality aft
The bill failed to pass. More troublesome than the bearish news is this: how much longer will the regulatory vacuum drag on?
CLARITY is stalled—not because of a simple up-or-down price issue, but because the legislative window for U.S. market-structure rules has narrowed again. The House passed it, but it cannot clear the Senate’s 60-vote threshold; the next step will also depend on the seats after the midterm elections. For ordinary people: listen less to slogans and watch two things—whether cooling regulatory expectations will continue to suppress risk appetite, and whether the Fed’s post-me
Clarity Act voted out 49–50: It wasn’t just the rate-hike pressure—the crypto market also took a regulatory hit last night
The U.S. Senate’s procedural vote failed, leaving Clarity (the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act) short of the 60-vote threshold, with roughly 49 in favor versus 50 opposed. This means the short-term regulatory reassurance is gone: the industry will still have to watch the SEC and CFTC make their own rules. Bitcoin was already under pressure from rate-hike expectations yesterday, and the bill’s setback added another blow to sentiment. Digital assets are now being priced on

The divide over account abstraction appears to be about standards and approaches, but at its core it is still about how user experience, liquidity, and security responsibilities are allocated. If ecosystems each go their own way, migration costs for developers and users will rise first, and ETH’s competitiveness will ultimately depend on whether it can hide the complexity.

Title: BTC holds 76k: Before the Fed decision is announced, don’t mistake “almost a rate hike” for “it’s already over.” Body: No matter how high the rate-hike probability is, it only prices in that it “may happen,” not what will be said afterward. Bitcoin is hovering around 76k, and what the market is really trading is the dot plot and the tone of the press conference: tighter or more dovish. Stocks, gold, and crude oil futures will react in turn, while crypto is often the most sensitive. Stay calm before the decision; after it, watch that one sentence.
