On June 19, following a preliminary investigation into monopolistic powers in the cloud computing market, Microsoft's Azure and Amazon Web Services (AWS) will face stringent antitrust regulations from the European Union. Reports indicate that the European Commission is expected to announce preliminary findings as early as next week, likely indicating that AWS and Azure may meet the regulatory conditions of the EU's Digital Markets Act (DMA). Sources suggest that the EU is expected to make a final decision by the end of this year, although the timeline may change. If these tech giants' services are ultimately subject to comprehensive regulation under the DMA, they will face a range of obligations, including interoperability requirements, as well as restrictions on customer lock-in and self-preferencing practices.

On June 19, according to Politico, the White House submitted the U.S.-Iran memorandum to the U.S. Congress on Thursday. Previously, bipartisan lawmakers had complained about not receiving the agreement sooner. The document reveals that the U.S. and Iran have reached 14 points of consensus to temporarily end military actions initiated by Trump that have lasted nearly four months. Congress received the agreement shortly after Trump signed the document in France on Wednesday evening, and Vice President Pence introduced the agreement to reporters at the White House. On Wednesday, a Trump administration official read the contents of the memorandum to reporters before providing the document to congressional members, which sparked strong dissatisfaction among many Republican senators and some House Republican members. Senior White House officials have held small meetings and one-on-one calls with some Republican lawmakers, but it is expected that the Trump administration will not brief all members on the agreement until next week.

On June 19, US Vice President Vance stated at a White House press conference that the 60-day deadline for reaching a final agreement stipulated in the US-Iran memorandum of understanding starts from the 18th, and he will lead the US negotiating team in the upcoming talks. Vance said, "I believe this 60-day deadline officially began today. Due to the late signing and considering the time zone differences, technically I believe it was signed today according to Iranian time." Vance indicated that he still plans to travel to Switzerland, but the specific timing is yet to be determined. Technical negotiations between the US and Iran are expected to begin this weekend. He noted that both Iran and the US have so far fulfilled their military commitments under the memorandum of understanding. Iran has not fired on any vessels in the Strait of Hormuz for two consecutive nights, and the US military has allowed numerous ships to pass through its maritime blockade line. Vance stated that the final agreement with Iran will address the long-term operational issues of the Strait of Hormuz and must ensure that this critical waterway "never again becomes a bottleneck for the global economy." He emphasized that the US believes international waterways should not impose tolls. When asked who would fund the $300 billion mentioned in the memorandum for Iran's reconstruction and economic development, Vance said that the current negotiations are still in the early stages, and he could not provide a definitive answer. He also stressed that the economic benefits outlined in the agreement can only be obtained if Iran "fully complies" and "changes its behavior." Vance further mentioned that Israel's military actions in Lebanon have sometimes hindered breakthroughs in US-Iran negotiations, which has frustrated President Trump. He reiterated that Israel has the right to self-defense but urged the Israeli side to "respect this peace process, which is beneficial for them and the entire region." (Xinhua News Agency)

On June 19, as tensions in the Middle East eased and inflation concerns cooled, U.S. mortgage rates fell to their lowest level in a month, providing some relief for homebuyers. Freddie Mac stated in a release on Thursday that the average rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage dropped from 6.52% a week ago to 6.47%. A year ago, this rate was 6.81%. After a tumultuous period of significant fluctuations in borrowing costs, the spring home sales season is nearing its end. Previously, mortgage rates surged due to the outbreak of conflict in the Middle East at the end of February. However, the announcement of a temporary peace agreement this week and news of the potential reopening of the Strait of Hormuz have contributed to a decline in oil prices, helping to alleviate upward pressure on mortgage rates. The spring sales season has shown unexpected resilience. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) reported on Wednesday that the number of pending home sales rose by 3.8% in May, although it remains at historically low levels. This metric is more forward-looking than sales volume, and the increase in pending sales indicates that buyers may be gradually adjusting to higher rates. Nevertheless, affordability remains a concern. According to a report from Redfin, the median monthly mortgage payment in the U.S. rose to $2,647 in the four weeks ending June 14, marking the highest level in a year and only about $100 below the historical peak recorded in 2023.
