On June 17, Wells Fargo Securities released a new report indicating that the firm has raised its year-end target for the S&P 500 index from 7300 to 7950. The report suggests that the easing of U.S.-Iran tensions, a decline in inflation pressures, and fully priced rate hike expectations are creating a 'triple positive resonance' for U.S. stocks. The report highlights that with a temporary peace agreement between the U.S. and Iran expected to be signed and improved expectations for navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, the global energy risk premium has significantly decreased. The drop in oil prices is helping to alleviate inflation pressures in the U.S. and improving market expectations for the Federal Reserve's policy path. Wells Fargo Securities equity strategist Wu Chengquan stated that current market sentiment has shifted from extreme caution back to neutral, with AI and semiconductor sectors remaining core growth drivers. Cyclical stocks are expected to see a rebound as geopolitical risks recede, and funds may continue to rotate from defensive assets to risk assets. Meanwhile, the firm believes that the market has partially priced in the policy stance of the new Federal Reserve Chair, Kevin Warsh. In the short term, inflation remains the main variable, but the risks of rate hikes are relatively limited. However, the report also highlights two major downside risks: first, the historical volatility pressure associated with the U.S. midterm election cycle; and second, the potential tightening of regulations facing the AI industry, which could disrupt the current core narrative driving U.S. stock gains. Overall, Wells Fargo Securities believes that U.S. stocks are still in a phase of sentiment recovery and structural market continuation, but the risk of increased volatility is accumulating.

On June 17, the Korea Times reported that the retail-driven crypto boom in South Korea is significantly cooling down. According to data from TRM Labs, the retail crypto trading volume in South Korea for the first quarter of this year was $69 billion, a 28% decrease compared to the same period last year, ranking second globally. The United States topped the list with a trading volume of $212 billion, followed by Russia ($48 billion), India ($46 billion), and Turkey ($40 billion). Analysts indicate that one of the main reasons for the slowdown in the crypto boom is the domestic stock market in South Korea, where the rise of AI-driven semiconductor stocks has absorbed a large amount of retail funds and shifted risk appetite away from cryptocurrencies. Some constituents of the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) have seen daily gains exceeding those of mainstream cryptocurrencies.

On June 17, Goldman Sachs economist Akira Otani stated that the Bank of Japan is likely to raise interest rates again in January 2027, but there is a high degree of uncertainty regarding the timing of future rate hikes. "Given that the underlying inflation rate is close to 2%, even a slight fluctuation, such as a further minor depreciation of the yen, could significantly increase the risk of inflation exceeding 2%," the economist pointed out. "Therefore, the probability distribution for the timing of the next rate hike is considered to lean towards an earlier increase." Otani also added that the actual timing of the rate hike will be "significantly influenced by the progress of communication with the government."

On June 17, as the countdown to the signing of the US-Iran memorandum of understanding began, signals indicating the unblocking of Iranian crude oil exports were continuously released. According to Bloomberg's shipping tracking data, four Iranian-affiliated tankers recently reactivated their positioning transponders and actively sailed out of the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf of Oman. This includes two very large crude carriers (VLCCs) with a single voyage capacity of 2 million barrels each, as well as two product tankers that successfully traversed the Strait of Hormuz. On the same day, shipping data agency TankerTrackers.com disclosed that at least three tankers that had previously docked at Chabahar Port have departed their berths. Iranian tankers have long evaded sanctions tracking by shutting off positioning signals, faking signals, and using interference. The collective public navigation of several vessels this time has been interpreted by the market as a preliminary signal of the gradual lifting of the US maritime blockade. On the agreement front, Bloomberg reported on Tuesday, citing sources close to the final draft of the agreement, that the US-Iran agreement will grant Iran prior exemptions from oil sanctions, allowing Iran to immediately sell crude oil abroad after the agreement is signed, without any additional transition period. Shipping analysis firm Kpler has estimated that approximately 68 million barrels of Iranian crude oil are currently stranded at sea due to US blockade, and once export channels are opened, a significant increase in supply will directly alleviate the global crude oil supply tightness and impact oil prices. Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister stated through ISNA media that the US maritime blockade on Iranian ports, initiated in April this year, has entered a phased lifting stage. According to the plan from both sides, the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz by Iran and the US maritime ban on all Iranian shipping will be lifted simultaneously after the formal signing of the peace agreement this Friday. The US Central Command has not yet responded to related inquiries.
