  • Bank of America: July Fed Rate Hike Would Be Unprecedented

    On July 28, although the market expects a small possibility that the Fed will raise rates in July, Bank of America still expects the Fed to keep rates unchanged. The bank said that if the Fed raises rates in July, it would be unprecedented: since 1994, the Fed has never raised rates when the market probability of a rate hike was below 60%. Bank of America believes that higher oil prices are the main inflation risk and remains bullish on the dollar. (Jin10)

  • ChangXin Memory Technologies to Disrupt Global Storage Monopoly, Foreign Media Say

    On July 28, the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) plunged 10.84% to 6,023.63 points. Samsung Electronics closed down 13.39%, its biggest single-day drop in 18 years, while SK Hynix closed down 14.65%, nearly halving from its June high. Multiple South Korean media outlets interpreted this sharp stock market decline as the impact of the listing of China's largest semiconductor company, ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT). Market concerns have spread that CXMT will use the funds raised from its stock market listing to catch up with semiconductor companies such as Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, leading to a dent in investor sentiment. According to earlier reports from CNBC, Peter Alexander, an analyst at Z-Ben Advisors, believes that following the development path of the steel and new energy vehicle industries, CXMT will quickly capture market share in the low-end memory chip segment and ultimately shake the monopoly of Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and Micron Technology in the global storage industry.

  • Analyst: Netanyahu Likely to Pressure Trump Again During Meeting

    Alex Vatanka, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute in Washington D.C., said that when Netanyahu meets Trump at the White House on Tuesday, he will likely try to once again push for regime change in Iran. However, Trump will not buy it because he does not want to do so. Domestically in the U.S., this war is extremely unpopular politically, so what Netanyahu can gain from this meeting remains to be seen. Previous meetings between Trump and Netanyahu in Washington have often been followed by an escalation of tensions with Iran, and it remains to be seen whether this pattern will continue. Israel is still dissatisfied with the memorandum of understanding reached between the Trump administration and Iran because their perception of the Iranian threat differs from that of the U.S. Israeli officials will want Netanyahu to continue pressuring Trump on Iran's ballistic missile and nuclear programs. The Trump administration's response may be: unless the U.S. decides to send troops to occupy Iran, the military actions the U.S. military can take are limited. And the idea of occupying Iran is something no one takes seriously. (Jin Shi)
