On July 27, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal on July 24, the surge in global storage chip prices has prompted Apple CEO Tim Cook to lead a lobbying campaign targeting Trump, the U.S. Secretary of Commerce, and the Treasury Secretary. Apple seeks permission to use storage chips from CXMT and YMTC in iPhones, Macs, and other products sold overseas. Apple claims this move would diversify its supply chain, alleviate chip shortages, and lower end-product prices, while ensuring that devices with Chinese chips would not enter the U.S. domestic market. The proposal faces fierce opposition from Micron, the only major U.S. storage chip manufacturer. Micron executives warned the government that even if the products are only sold abroad, easing restrictions on Chinese chip procurement would harm the U.S. storage industry, risking a repeat of the decline of American manufacturing due to cheap overseas products. Micron proposed relying on its own $250 billion domestic expansion plan to address supply gaps and opposed relaxing restrictions on chip imports from China. Both CXMT and YMTC have been added to the U.S. military-entity list. The conflicting demands of the two major U.S. companies have left the Trump administration in a policy quandary, balancing consumer market costs against protecting the domestic semiconductor industry. No clear decision on the approval has been reached yet. The current cycle of storage chip price increases is expected to last until 2027, and Apple has already raised prices on several devices, with cost pressures continuing to mount.

Affected by corporate bankruptcy risks, high interest rates, and macroeconomic uncertainty, fundraising for Asian private credit funds continues to cool. According to PitchBook data, only five Asian private credit funds completed fundraising in the first half of this year, raising a total of $1.2 billion, the lowest level for the same period in at least 12 years; in the same period in 2025, 29 funds raised $9.5 billion. If the fundraising pace remains unchanged in the second half of the year, 2026 will become the quietest year for the Asian private credit market in at least 12 years. Over the past year, the collapse of multiple borrowing companies has led to large-scale redemptions by retail investors in private credit funds. However, some large institutions are still increasing their positions against the trend, hoping to capitalize on opportunities created by the withdrawal of retail funds. For example, Singapore's Temasek announced plans to increase its private credit allocation from 2% to 5% by 2031. (Financial Times)

He also sees merit in tightening policy early when inflation is so high, and favors further rate hikes before seeing a significant slowdown in core CPI.
