#WTICrudeDropsTo75
Oil just took a sharp downward turn. West Texas Intermediate, the American crude benchmark that markets track most closely, has fallen from roughly $80 a barrel to the $75 level, dropping more than 5 percent in a single session on August 4, 2026. The international Brent benchmark slipped to around $79.7 a barrel during the same move. This is not a small blip. It is a meaningful repricing driven mainly by hopes of de-escalation in the Middle East, as discussions opened around potentially reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway through which about 20 percent of global oil

8.5 Gold Afternoon Outlook
Gold prices saw a strong afternoon rally, trading around 4164. The market showed a clearly bullish trend during the day, with buying pressure released in force and volatility significantly expanding. The A-share precious metals sector also surged, further fueling bullish sentiment.
Expectations for easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have shifted, while U.S. Treasury yields edged lower. Coupled with continued large-scale gold purchases by global central banks, this provided strong support for gold prices. The market is still awaiting tonight’s nonfarm pay

#StrategySells1637BTCAndBuysBackSTRC
$BTC ‌
A strategic move, not a shift in Bitcoin conviction
Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has once again attracted market attention with a carefully planned capital management decision. The company sold 1,637 BTC for approximately $105 million, marking its third Bitcoin sale of the year. The proceeds were used to meet dividend obligations and repurchase STRK-linked preferred stock. Even after the transaction, Strategy continues to hold an extraordinary 842,138 BTC, valued at around $63.5 billion, reinforcing its position as the world's largest

Is the S&P hitting a new high surprising? Not at all. As early as mid-July, I pointed out that the S&P was most likely undergoing a sideways correction. In the August 2 video (p1 p2), I directly told everyone that it had reached the end of the correction and was highly likely to break upward. The S&P's current move has now played out as expected～
XAU Gold's trend has also initially matched expectations, and my view remains unchanged (p3 p4). The question is whether it will break out directly like the S&P or make another false move. In any case, I believe that in hindsight, the result will stil

$XAUUSD Reviewing the July market and my trades: I incorrectly estimated the extent of the Nasdaq pullback when copy trading. I expected it to bottom out and rebound at 28,000, but I never expected it to fall to 27,000. It can be said that this wave nearly wiped out all of June’s profits. Although I knew the Nasdaq was in an uptrend and that 30,000 would definitely be recovered, the process was too tortuous, and holding through the losses was difficult, which made me hesitant in my trades. My own account also suffered heavy losses, but fortunately, the pullback ended in August, and I recovere

Cloud providers can dumb down large models
Here’s another interesting one.
Model evaluation agency Artificial Analysis recently conducted a test: it set the scores of officially deployed models at 100%, then tested APIs for the same models provided by different cloud service providers.
The results were striking.
The worst-performing GLM-5.2 API endpoint retained only 52% of its capabilities. gpt-oss-120b fluctuated between 70% and 101%. DeepSeek V4 Pro was relatively stable, with all 9 providers ranging between 97% and 107%.
The main reason is that cloud providers need to control costs.

Global markets are leaning risk-on this morning, but today’s US data could either confirm the move or reverse it fast.
Asian equities surged as chip and AI shares rallied, following fresh US record highs supported by strong corporate earnings. At the same time, oil extended its decline as markets assessed possible progress in US-Iran negotiations, while the dollar remained near a six-week low and Treasury yields eased.
That combination matters for #Bitcoin: lower oil reduces inflation pressure, softer yields improve liquidity conditions, and a weaker #USDollar generally gives risk assets more

#SpaceXQ2RevenueBeatsAt7.8B
Markets often reward optimism during rallies, but real conviction is revealed during corrections. While $SPCX is trading near fresh lows, SpaceX's reported Q2 revenue of $7.8B highlights that the company's underlying business continues to expand through launch services, Starlink, and space infrastructure.
Short-term price action is driven by sentiment, liquidity, and macro conditions, but long-term investors usually focus on fundamentals rather than daily volatility. Market pullbacks can create uncertainty, yet they also provide opportunities for those who believe

#WTI原油跌至75美元 Crude Oil Plunges
Driven by optimistic expectations that the United States and Iran may reach an agreement on the Strait of Hormuz issue, international crude oil futures prices fell sharply on the 4th. The market is concerned that as tensions in the Middle East ease, the risk of disruptions to crude oil supplies will decline, prompting the rapid unwinding of the geopolitical premium accumulated recently.
At the close, NYMEX WTI crude oil futures for September delivery fell $4.57 to $75.77 per barrel, down 5.69%; London Brent crude oil futures for October delivery fell $4.41 to set
