On June 17, CNBC reported that renowned investor Jim Cramer stated that the driving force behind the continuous rise in SpaceX's stock price is not its current profitability, but rather the market's bet on Musk's ability to create disruptive companies. Cramer noted that after SpaceX completed its IPO last week, its market value quickly soared to about $2.5 trillion, briefly surpassing Microsoft and Amazon. Despite the company potentially remaining unprofitable for many years to come, investors are willing to assign a high valuation due to Musk's track record of building industry leaders. Cramer remarked, 'This stock is called SpaceX, but it might as well be called Elon Musk. When you buy into SpaceX, you are essentially buying Musk's brain.' He pointed out that investors value not only Musk's proposed goal of achieving $1 trillion in annual revenue by 2030 but also the long-term business strategies involving Starlink satellite internet, reusable rockets, and data centers. Meanwhile, SpaceX announced on Tuesday that it will acquire AI programming startup Cursor for $60 billion in stock, further expanding its footprint in the fields of artificial intelligence and software development. Cramer believes some investors view SpaceX as akin to Berkshire Hathaway in the Buffett era, betting on an entrepreneur capable of creating value for decades through ownership of a single company. He stated that while the market remains skeptical about SpaceX's valuation, the cost for short sellers has been quite high so far.

On June 17, The New York Times reported that the crypto industry's super PAC Fairshake and its affiliated organizations have invested approximately $12.1 million in the Republican primary for U.S. Senator in Alabama to support pro-cryptocurrency Congressman Barry Moore. According to advertising monitoring agency AdImpact, television ad spending alone reached $9.8 million. Barry Moore has supported several bills prioritized by the crypto industry and has publicly opposed central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), stating he does not want the government to control people's financial activities. Fairshake's campaign ads prominently feature Trump's endorsement of Moore. As of May this year, Fairshake and its affiliated organizations held about $150 million in funds, making it one of the most influential political forces in the 2026 U.S. midterm elections. The organization plans to reserve most of its funds for the fall elections while continuing to support pro-crypto candidates in some 'safe seat' primaries. Previously, Fairshake invested around $9 million in the Illinois Democratic primary to support an opponent but failed to prevent Julianna Stratton from winning. In Alabama, Fairshake's affiliated organization Defend American Jobs has invested about $10 million to support Barry Moore, while the funding for his opponent, retired Navy SEAL Jared Hudson, is significantly smaller.

On June 17, Ki Young Ju, founder and CEO of CryptoQuant, stated on platform X that altcoins are not dead. Only those altcoins that rely solely on narrative hype will be eliminated. The era where simply issuing coins could generate profit has ended. 
He discussed the types of altcoins that he personally believes can still survive, emphasizing that while narrative remains important, it is no longer sufficient on its own. Some altcoins are still worth holding long-term, provided that the projects have real business operations, actual revenue, and align with global mainstream financial development trends. 
In his view, altcoins with long-term value can be categorized into three types: 
1. Global internet platforms with tokenized market layers; 
2. Decentralized financial service projects with real earnings; 
3. Projects that align with mainstream financial development trends.

On June 17, according to a final draft of a memorandum of understanding obtained by Bloomberg, the United States will immediately issue exemption licenses for Iranian crude oil, petrochemical products, and related financial, insurance, and transportation services after the agreement is signed. Additionally, it will promote a financing plan of at least $300 billion to support Iran's economic recovery while gradually unfreezing Iran's overseas assets. The draft indicates that Iran and the US plan to sign the memorandum of understanding in Switzerland on June 19 to end the conflict that has persisted since February of this year. The agreement stipulates that both sides will implement a permanent ceasefire on all fronts, including towards Lebanon, and commit to refraining from using force against each other. The US also promises to lift the maritime blockade and restore navigation capabilities in the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days, while withdrawing military forces from the surrounding region within 30 days after the final agreement is signed. In exchange, Iran commits to never developing nuclear weapons and will address the fate of enriched materials and other nuclear issues in the final agreement, while restoring shipping traffic from the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman. Both sides will negotiate to reach a final agreement within a maximum of 60 days, which will be approved through a binding resolution by the United Nations Security Council. The draft also shows that prior to the final agreement, Iran will maintain its current nuclear program status, and the US will not impose new sanctions or strengthen regional military deployments. The US commits to gradually unfreezing and restoring the use of Iran's frozen or restricted assets as negotiations progress. However, Trump previously denied that the US would directly provide $300 billion in funding to Iran. Sources indicate that the US currently understands that the oil sales exemption is mainly limited to already shipped Iranian crude oil and does not imply a full restoration of exports.

On June 17, CNBC reported that the Federal Reserve will release its latest dot plot on Wednesday, showing officials' expectations for interest rate trends. However, most Wall Street Fed watchers expect the new Fed Chair Waller to abstain from participating, possibly because he feels unprepared or simply dislikes the dot plot. Waller has previously expressed opposition to the dot plot and other forward guidance methods, arguing that these approaches limit the Fed's decision-making ability. If Waller refuses to provide dot plot expectations, it would contradict nearly 14 years of practice since the financial crisis and could alienate him from other Fed officials who support this communication method. However, for Waller, who has committed to fundamentally reforming the institution's operations, this could be an effective first step. 'In my view, he likely does not want to submit interest rate forecasts,' said Bill English, former head of monetary policy at the Fed and current professor at Yale University. 'There may be others on the committee who also dislike the dot plot and would be willing to do the same.'

On the US side, Israeli media reported that some US military refueling aircraft have begun to withdraw from Israel. Additionally, reports indicate that the US is allowing Iran to immediately resume oil exports and is secretly transporting oil from the Gulf.

US intelligence agencies believe that Iran still has the capability to close the Strait of Hormuz again.
