高盛:最大的客户们在加密货币市场活跃

不仅全球的YOLO(You Only Live Once,你只活一次)散户投资者正重返加密货币市场,高盛的对冲基金客户也同样活跃在该市场。

高盛数字资产亚太区负责人Max Minton在接受采访时表示:“最近ETF的获批触发了我们客户对加密货币的兴趣。我们的许多最大客户已经在这个领域活跃起来,或者正在探索。

高盛在2021年推出了其加密货币交易平台,目前除了提供CME上市的比特币期货和以太坊期货外,还提供现金结算的比特币期权和以太坊期权交易。但该行并未交易底层加密代币。

Minton表示:“去年相对平静,但从今年年初开始,我们看到了客户兴趣的重燃,包括新客户的数量、交易流程的活跃度以及整体交易规模等方面都呈现出上升趋势。

Minton解释说,大部分新需求主要来自高盛的现有客户,他们通过该公司的期权和期货产品参与加密货币市场,对冲基金是其客户中参与度最高的。

现货比特币ETF获批提振比特币价格

据他介绍,客户正在使用加密衍生品进行方向性押注、提高收益率及风险对冲。

虽然目前客户关注的焦点仍主要集中在与比特币相关的金融产品上,但他指出,如果美国批准以太坊ETF,那么客户对于以太坊相关产品的兴趣可能会发生变化。

然而,外媒ETF分析师认为,到5月份,以太坊ETF获得批准的可能性只有35%,美国证券交易委员会(SEC)对潜在基金发行人的长期“沉默”越来越被视为拒绝信号。

Minton补充说,无论ETF是否获得批准,高盛都将寻求扩大“更广泛的客户范围”,包括资产管理基金、银行和更专业的加密资产公司。

除了交易业务,高盛还在利用区块链技术对传统资产进行代币化处理。该银行推出了名为GS DAP的数字资产平台,已被欧洲投资银行和香港金融管理局用来发行债券。高盛最近还参与了一个连接银行、资产管理公司和交易所的区块链网络试点测试。

此外,高盛投资了可能对数字资产市场结构发展具有战略意义的初创企业,主要是区块链基础设施公司。

Minton说:“我们有一系列的投资组合,并会在符合战略意义的情况下进行投资。”

Report Interpretation: J.P. Morgan Details Micron's Pre-Earnings Sentiment, Current Hardware Sector Dynamics

Morgan Stanley analyst Joshua Meyers' report (June 21, 2026) highlights key trends in the hardware and semiconductor sector ahead of Micron's earnings. The core takeaways are: 1. **Micron & Memory:** Memory remains a high-conviction long theme, driven by strong AI demand and rising ASPs. However, investor focus is shifting to the sustainability of Micron's >80% gross margins and the specifics of potential new long-term supply agreements (SCAs). 2. **Hardware Supply Chain:** AI-related demand for servers, networking, and storage remains robust, but company performance is diverging. Celestica (CLS) shows improved margin confidence, Western Digital and Seagate benefit from pricing, Fabrinet (FN) sees predictable AI optics growth, and Teradyne (TER) anticipates a new Google customer. 3. **AI Capex & WFE Forecasts:** JPMorgan increased its Wafer Fab Equipment (WFE) market growth forecasts to 28% in 2026 and 29% in 2027. AI infrastructure financing is evolving, with higher project-level debt reducing constraints on capex expansion. The report signals that while the AI-driven hardware cycle is strong, the market is entering a phase focused on execution verification (e.g., Micron's SCA details, Fabrinet's ramp with Amazon) and valuation sustainability. Key near-term signals include Micron's guidance, Arista Networks' outlook, and the pace of demand normalization post potential tariff-related pull-ins.

Research Report Analysis: The Fed's New Chair's Debut – New Leader, But Same Script?

Report Analysis: Federal Reserve's New Chair Debut – A New Captain, But the Same Script? Morgan Stanley's chief global economist Seth B. Carpenter analyzes the first FOMC meeting under new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh in a June 21 report. Warsh deliberately avoided providing forward guidance on interest rates, aligning with his philosophy. However, market expectations for a rate hike this year were reinforced. Key signals lie elsewhere: inflation may fall more than expected, and quantitative tightening (QT) could be more aggressive than anticipated. The FOMC's "dot plot" suggests only one rate hike in 2026. Carpenter argues that if inflation undershoots forecasts, the logic for even a single hike weakens, especially as projections indicate potential rate cuts in 2027. On QT, Warsh's stance is clear. Carpenter notes that measures like halving the Treasury's account balance could shrink the Fed's balance sheet by around $500 billion with minimal market impact. Combined with adjustments to reserve interest and liquidity rules, the ultimate QT scale may exceed expectations, though its market effect might be less disruptive unless the Fed actively sells Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS). While Warsh initiated a review of the Fed's policy framework, the 2% inflation target remains intact for now. The report concludes that the market may be overestimating the significance of reduced forward guidance and the near-term rate hike risk, while potentially underestimating the scope and manageable nature of the coming balance sheet reduction. The key debates will hinge on upcoming core PCE data, the specifics of the QT path, and the framework review's findings.
