On June 20, the latest AP-NORC poll revealed that President Trump's approval rating remains at 37%, unchanged from last month, amid a preliminary agreement to end the war between the US and Iran. The poll also showed that Trump's approval rating for his handling of the Iran conflict is stable at 34%. However, 53% of respondents believe that the US military actions in Iran have been excessive, a decrease of 6 percentage points since March, but still a majority. The survey was conducted from June 11 to 17, with a sample size of approximately 3,040 American adults and a margin of error of ±2.8%. The results indicate that despite the preliminary ceasefire agreement with Iran and short-term economic relief such as falling oil prices, there are still significant public doubts regarding the war's objectives and policy effectiveness. Reports note that since the US military actions against Iran began in February, Trump's overall approval rating has fluctuated between 34% and 40%, showing no significant improvement. Analysts suggest that the Iran conflict and its impact on energy prices remain key factors influencing his economic and diplomatic evaluations.

On June 20, in the first quarter of 2026, the total upward mass of global space launches was approximately 647,000 kilograms, a year-on-year increase of 18%. SpaceX topped the list with 556,000 kilograms, more than 13 times that of the second place, holding about 86% of the global launch capacity. Musk commented that once Starship achieves hourly launches, SpaceX's orbital mass will be about 100 times that of all other operators combined, even if they triple their current launch frequency. Currently, Starship has not yet entered high-frequency commercial operations, but SpaceX has established an overwhelming advantage with its Falcon series. Analysts point out that once Starship is scaled up, the global space landscape will undergo a historic transformation.

On June 20, U.S. President Trump stated that approximately 700 ships are currently passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran must reach an agreement within 60 days, or we will take actions that they will not like. He also added that he believes things will not escalate to that point. 'Remember, if we do that, then suddenly, oil will no longer flow through the Strait of Hormuz, because those who own ships worth billions of dollars do not like missiles flying over their heads, nor do they like mines all over the surface of the water,' he said.

On June 20, sources familiar with the financial status of the prediction market platform Kalshi revealed that the company's annual revenue has surpassed $2 billion, nearly doubling in size compared to last November, driven by a surge in trading volume from bets on NBA and World Cup events.

On June 20, The Wall Street Journal reported that Charles Schwab is preparing to enter the prediction market space through a partnership with Cboe Global Markets. They are developing option-based contracts that allow clients to bet 'yes' or 'no' on the performance of the S&P 500 index. Unlike prediction market platforms such as Polymarket and Kalshi, which typically offer futures-style contracts, Schwab's products will operate in the form of options, paying a fixed cash amount or nothing at all based on whether the index closes above or below a target level. Schwab and Cboe also plan to utilize Cboe's 'Plus Zone' feature to promote related products, allowing traders to earn partial payouts if their predictions are close to the final market outcome, even if the index does not fully reach the target price. These products are expected to be launched in the coming months.
