Resumen

Weekend markets saw a clear return of risk appetite. Major indices rose broadly, with significant gains in tech and precious metals, while energy sectors fell sharply on the "end of war" narrative. On June 14, oil prices initially rose on reports Iran had not yet finalized a memorandum of understanding. Later, YNET reported Trump might immediately lift the maritime blockade on Iran and the Strait of Hormuz. At 21:30, Trump confirmed on Truth Terminal that a deal with Iran was done, authorizing an immediate end to the US blockade and toll-free opening of the Strait. Iran's deputy foreign minister simultaneously announced an immediate and permanent halt to military actions on multiple fronts. Oil prices had already fallen to weekend boundaries, pre-pricing the news. The S&P 500 subsequently touched 7530. Markets will likely remain in a waiting period until the formal peace deal signing on June 19. At the moment of the deal announcement, gold jumped from ~4,221 to a high of 4,337, and silver from ~67.85 to 70.83, before stabilizing at higher levels. Individual stocks and ETFs like NBIS, RKLB, and LITE performed strongly. NBIS, added to the Nasdaq index, saw a target price increase due to strong AI cloud growth. RKLB, also added to the index, benefited from positive SpaceX valuation sentiment. LITE received a $1,130 target from JPMorgan. SPCX rose quickly after Musk tweeted SpaceX could potentially reach ~$1 trillion in revenue by 2030. In summary, the market shock from the m...

Weekend market sentiment was almost entirely one-sided in favor of risk-on.

Major indices rallied across the board, with tech and precious metals surging; the energy sector was hit hard (CL −1.79%, Brent −1.23%, NATGAS −0.7%), the most direct footnote to the "end of war" narrative.

Crude Oil & US Stock Indices

On June 14th, 07:31, Fars News Agency cited a source close to the negotiation team stating: Iran has not yet made a final decision on the proposed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Oil prices immediately rose to 82.6.

On the same day at 19:51, YNET further reported: Trump might be willing to immediately lift the US maritime blockade on Iran and the Strait of Hormuz, rather than doing so gradually as per the current agreement.

At 21:30 in the evening, the decisive moment arrived. Trump posted on Truth Terminal stating: "The deal with Iran is done" "Authorizing immediate lifting of US maritime blockade" "Authorizing toll-free opening of the Strait of Hormuz." Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister simultaneously stated that multiple fronts (including Lebanon) would announce an immediate and permanent cessation of military operations that evening.

It is worth noting that by this time, crude oil prices had already fallen to TradeXYZ's weekend price boundary, the market having "pre-priced" this news.

The S&P 500 index subsequently touched $7,530.

Before the official signing of the peace agreement (on the 19th), the market will most likely still have to go through a waiting period.

Precious Metals

At the exact same moment the agreement news was announced at 21:30, gold jumped from around 4,221 directly to a high of 4,337, and silver surged from around 67.85 to a high of 70.83, subsequently stabilizing at high levels.

Individual Stocks / ETFs

Several individual stocks such as NBIS, RKLB, and LITE performed strongly over the weekend.

NBIS: Was included in the Nasdaq Index on June 12th; Compass Point raised its price target, citing strong growth in its AI cloud business—Q1 2026 revenue of $399 million, a 683.9% year-over-year increase.

RKLB: Also included in the Nasdaq Index on June 12th, buoyed by sentiment spillover from SpaceX's valuation.

LITE: JPMorgan gave a $1,130 price target in a report on June 11th.

SPCX also showed strength. Musk, in a weekend Twitter reply, stated, "I think SpaceX might achieve around $1 trillion in revenue by 2030." SPCX rose 0.56% on TradeXYZ within minutes.

Overall, the shock brought to the market by the three-month-plus war is beginning to unwind. The agreement will not be officially signed until June 19th, with Israel's moves being the biggest variable during this period.

Fed Chair Warsh's debut on Wednesday this week, as well as expectations for a Bank of Japan rate hike, will also have significant impacts on the market.

It was revealed that 92.7% of institutional bitcoin (BTC) reserves are held by companies based in the USA

Institutional Bitcoin reserves held by publicly traded companies are overwhelmingly concentrated in the US, according to data from Unfolded. US-based firms hold 1.24 million BTC, accounting for a staggering 92.7% of the global total held by such entities. Over the past 12 months, these companies added 510,000 BTC to their portfolios, a purchasing rate that vastly outpaced new supply. Their acquisitions were more than triple the number of new BTC mined during the same period, significantly impacting the asset's supply dynamics. This trend, heavily influenced by firms like MicroStrategy, reflects a growing institutional adoption of Bitcoin as a long-term reserve asset across sectors like energy, technology, and finance. Analysts warn this sustained institutional demand, especially after the upcoming halving which will reduce new supply, could further strain the supply-demand balance and influence long-term price trends.

Bank of Japan Signals Interest Rate Hike Despite Keeping Them at 1%

The Bank of Japan (BOJ) kept its benchmark interest rate at 1% on July 31, as widely expected, following a June hike to a 31-year high. The decision passed with an 8-1 vote, with board member Hajime Takata again dissenting in favor of a hike to 1.25%. Despite holding rates steady, the BOJ signaled a hawkish tilt, warning that underlying inflation is likely to accelerate and exceed 2% from the latter half of the fiscal year. While it slightly lowered its core inflation forecast for FY2026, officials expressed stronger confidence that an overshoot will occur later, driven by yen weakness, corporate pricing behavior, and lingering energy shock effects. Markets were focused on the BOJ's forward guidance. Analysts noted the central bank appeared to balance short-term caution with a long-term warning of tighter policy. Governor Kazuo Ueda faces the challenge of reconciling a government reluctant to tighten further with bond markets already pricing in additional hikes, with the timing of the next move debated. Adding complexity, the BOJ reportedly intervened in currency markets hours before the rate decision, buying yen to support the currency which had fallen to 40-year lows against the dollar. Yen weakness stems from the wide U.S.-Japan interest rate gap, high fuel prices, and market skepticism about the pace of BOJ policy normalization. The yield on Japan's 10-year government bonds fell to 2.8%, indicating investor expectations for future monetary tightening.

Reddit Triples Profit to $253 Million, But Notes Search Query Volatility

Reddit reported second-quarter 2026 net income of $253 million, roughly triple the $89 million from a year earlier. Revenue surged 61% year-over-year to $805 million, marking the eighth consecutive quarter of over 60% growth. Advertising revenue jumped 64% to $762 million, driven by higher ad prices and increased impressions. The company's weekly active unique users surpassed 500 million for the first time, reaching 514.6 million. However, executives flagged a concern: traffic from search engines became volatile toward the end of the quarter, creating headwinds for converting its large audience into daily users. CEO Steven Huffman noted that "AI overviews have not yet had a similarly positive impact" on search referrals compared to traditional links. Other highlights include adjusted EBITDA rising 43% to $343 million, operating cash flow of $262 million for the quarter, and the launch of Reddit's first shareholder return program with $235 million spent on share repurchases. For the current quarter, Reddit forecasts revenue between $860 million and $870 million.

Why Are Leveraged ETFs like 7709 Inherently Negative EV Products?

This article argues that the SK H力士 2x Leveraged ETF (7709) is fundamentally a negative expected value (EV) product, rather than simply a "double SK H力士" investment. Its core issue stems from its daily rebalancing mechanism to maintain a 2x leverage target. After a price move, the fund must buy more after a rise or sell after a fall to readjust its leverage, creating a systematic pattern of buying high and selling low. This introduces a "delay loss": it always reacts to past price changes, missing potential gains from adjusting earlier during an uptrend and suffering greater losses from adjusting later during a downtrend. While more frequent intraday rebalancing would improve returns in strong, smooth trending markets by reinvesting profits or cutting losses sooner, it also dramatically increases volatility drag (frictional losses) during choppy, oscillating markets due to more frequent high-buy/low-sell trades. The author draws a parallel to an option seller who delta hedges (short gamma), which involves similar "buy high, sell low" dynamic hedging. However, unlike an option seller who receives upfront premium (IV and theta) as compensation for this risk, the leveraged ETF investor receives no such compensation. Instead, they bear all the path-dependent volatility decay, plus additional costs like swap/derivatives financing, management fees, and trading slippage. Thus, the product's return profile can be framed as: 2x directional return minus realized variance drag minus financing costs minus derivatives costs minus management fees minus transaction costs. For the investor to profit, SK H力士's price must not only rise significantly but do so in a strong, sustained, and smooth trend to overcome these inherent structural costs. High volatility and frequent price reversals are particularly damaging. The article also notes that while the ETF has no explicit liquidation line like perpetual futures, avoiding a sudden "blow-up," its net asset value can still decay towards zero over time through this combination of volatility drag and fees. For experienced traders, directly managing leverage via perpetual contracts may offer more control and potentially lower costs than this packaged, mechanistic product.

'Backstabbing' or 'Win-Win'? How Likely Is TradeXYZ to Break Away from Hyperliquid and Go Solo?

The article discusses the growing debate over whether TradeXYZ, which dominates Hyperliquid's HIP-3 market with over 90% of its volume, might break away to build its own independent trading platform. This possibility is fueled by TradeXYZ's immense market influence and the common industry trend of successful projects seeking more control and profit capture. Key arguments for a potential split include TradeXYZ's overwhelming contribution to Hyperliquid's metrics and the financial incentive to retain all transaction fees, as it currently splits them 50/50 with Hyperliquid. The piece draws parallels to other cases, like Anthropic's "Claude Code" competing with its former partner Cursor, suggesting "betrayal" can occur when business leverage shifts. However, strong counterarguments suggest a split is unlikely or would be detrimental. TradeXYZ relies on Hyperliquid's high-performance infrastructure and its platform as a primary user acquisition channel. Building a comparable system would be challenging. Furthermore, the founders of both projects share a history of trust and mutual admiration. The analysis concludes that a separation would likely be a lose-lose scenario: Hyperliquid would lose a major growth narrative and trading volume, while TradeXYZ would face technical hurdles, user migration issues, and reputational damage, potentially allowing competitors to seize market share. The most rational path is seen as continued collaboration, with TradeXYZ potentially negotiating better terms while leveraging Hyperliquid's established strengths.
