On June 11, the World Bank stated on Thursday that if the Middle East conflict leads to a prolonged reduction in energy supply and a significant drop in stock prices, the global economic growth rate this year could be less than half of that expected for 2025. In a semiannual report on global outlook, the World Bank indicated that assuming the transport of oil, gas, and other raw materials through the Strait of Hormuz returns to normal starting in August, it expects this year's economic growth to slow to 2.5%, down from 2.9% last year. This forecast is a slight downgrade from the 2.6% growth expectation in January, but if excluding the economic contraction during the pandemic and the output decline during the 2009 global financial crisis, it would be the weakest year since 1991. However, the World Bank warned that the longer the conflict lasts, the greater the economic slowdown will be. Indermit Gill, the World Bank's chief economist, stated: 'Escalation of hostilities or prolonged disruptions in commodity supply could further drive up commodity prices, exacerbate inflationary pressures and food insecurity, trigger financial stress, and pull down economic growth.' If shipping disruptions are resolved quickly, the World Bank expects the U.S. economy to grow by 2.2% this year, unchanged from the January forecast. However, it noted that about two-thirds of the global economy would face a slowdown due to the conflict, with developing countries suffering the most severe setbacks, and the poorest households being hit the hardest.

On June 11, Wedbush stated in a report that Oracle is taking the right steps to meet the surging demand for AI. Despite the company's stock price dropping 9% in pre-market trading following the announcement of its fourth-quarter results, Wedbush analysts noted that prepayments from Oracle's AI contracts and hardware provided by customers have acted as a buffer. The analysts indicated that these factors have reduced the amount of funding Oracle needs to raise and kept the financing requirements for fiscal year 2027 manageable in relation to the scale of AI demand. Oracle announced on Wednesday that it expects to raise $40 billion in debt and equity financing this year, which includes a previously announced $20 billion equity offering.

On June 11, supply chain sources revealed that TSMC plans to moderately increase its foundry prices in the second half of the year due to rising upstream costs. The most sought-after 3nm process is expected to see a price increase of 15%. Chip manufacturers noted that the queue of customers has not significantly eased, and despite TSMC's continued ramp-up of wafer production capacity, which is projected to reach 160,000 to 175,000 wafers per month in the second quarter, the growth rate of AI demand still far exceeds market expectations.

On June 11, driven by ongoing inflationary pressures from the Iran conflict, US producer prices rose at the fastest rate in over three years in May. Data released by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics on Thursday showed that the Producer Price Index (PPI) increased by 6.5% year-on-year, marking the largest increase since November 2022, and rose by 1.1% month-on-month. The core PPI, excluding food and energy, rose by 4.9% year-on-year. The report highlights the escalating economic damage caused by energy price shocks resulting from the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. With the conflict unlikely to be resolved in the short term, businesses are passing on higher energy and transportation costs, leading to increased prices for other goods and services. Coupled with earlier data showing that consumer prices rose at the fastest rate in three years in May, Thursday's PPI report may further strengthen market expectations for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates in 2026. As the labor market appears to regain momentum, the Federal Reserve is shifting its focus towards curbing inflation.
