Digital Asset Investment Products See $1.47 Billion Net Outflow Last Week, Bitcoin Records Largest Weekly Outflow of $1.315 Billion in 2026

On May 26, CoinShares released its latest weekly report, indicating that digital asset investment products experienced a net outflow of $1.47 billion last week, marking the second consecutive week of negative growth and the third-largest weekly outflow in 2026. The total outflow over the past two weeks has reached $2.54 billion. By asset type, Bitcoin saw an outflow of $1.315 billion, the largest weekly outflow in 2026, reducing its year-to-date inflow from $3.9 billion to $2.6 billion. Ethereum recorded an outflow of $223 million, remaining roughly stable compared to the previous week. Some altcoins still saw slight inflows, with XRP gaining $31.8 million, Near $9 million, and Solana $7.7 million. By region, the United States dominated the outflow pattern with a weekly outflow of $1.425 billion, while Switzerland, Canada, and Hong Kong saw outflows of $16.2 million, $12.5 million, and $12.2 million, respectively. Risk aversion sentiment has spread from localized areas to most regions globally. CoinShares noted that the outflows are closely related to rising geopolitical risks associated with Iran. Despite the ongoing legislative progress of the CLARITY Act, market risk aversion continues to deepen.

  • WTI Crude Oil Surges 3% in One Day

  • Bank of America: Bull-Bear Indicator Rises to 8.5, Triggering 'Sell' Signal, Warns of Imminent Global Market Correction

    On June 1, as market speculation continues to surge, Bank of America's bull-bear indicator has climbed from 8.0 to 8.5, signaling a 'sell' signal. The report warns that since 2002, this indicator has triggered sell signals 17 times, with global stock markets averaging a decline of 2% to 3% within 2 to 3 months, and maximum corrections reaching 15% to 20%. Bank of America points out that the recent spike in the bull-bear indicator is primarily driven by strong inflows into high-yield bonds (HY) and emerging market debt, alongside the bank's global breadth rule indicating that the market is 'overbought,' with a net 57% of stock indices trading above their 50-day and 200-day moving averages. Despite the S&P 500 index reaching new highs, the market structure is extremely fragile. Currently, only 21 stocks (about 4%) in the index have reached new highs, a figure reminiscent of the 20 stocks at the peak of the dot-com bubble in March 2000. Additionally, 222 stocks in the index have fallen over 20% from their highs, with 109 of those down more than 40%. Institutions and global funds have begun to withdraw. Last week, global stocks recorded a net outflow of $7 billion, marking the first outflow in nine weeks. Among these, the Japanese stock market saw an outflow of $8.2 billion, the largest single-week outflow since May 2025. In the face of a late-stage bubble market, Bank of America has provided a historical investment roadmap since 1929—advocating for the purchase of long-term bonds (historically, the median yield of 10-year Treasury bonds declines by 45 basis points within six months after the market peaks) and deploying defensive sectors, or sectors that have performed extremely poorly at the end of a bubble, while avoiding previously overhyped assets.

  • Intensive US-Iran Negotiations Over Ceasefire Agreement Amid Israeli Strikes on Lebanon

    On June 1, the United States and Iran exchanged information over the weekend, seeking to modify a draft agreement aimed at extending a ceasefire and reopening the Strait of Hormuz; however, it remains unclear whether substantial progress has been made on key issues. As diplomatic negotiations continue, Israel has further expanded its ground military operations against Lebanon, jeopardizing the already fragile ceasefire arrangement. President Donald Trump has not commented on the Iran issue since he indicated last Friday during a White House Situation Room meeting that he expected to announce an agreement. Earlier that day, he reiterated his demands on social media, including Iran's suspension of its nuclear program and the complete restoration of the Strait of Hormuz to its previous status as a free international waterway. The semi-official Tasnim News Agency, closely linked to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, reported on Sunday that both sides are still proposing amendments, but noted that the US and Iran may ultimately reject these modifications, leading to a breakdown of the overall agreement. According to Tasnim, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that talks and information exchanges are ongoing, and it is premature to make judgments before reaching a final outcome. He emphasized that everything being said now is merely speculation and should not be overinterpreted. Meanwhile, Israel has launched its most extensive attacks on Lebanon in 25 years, while Iran's key regional ally, Hezbollah, has intensified its attacks on northern Israel. (Sina Finance)

  • Iranian President Submits Resignation Request to Supreme Leader's Office

    On June 1, according to a report from Iran International TV based in London, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has submitted a resignation request to the Supreme Leader's office through an official letter, as revealed by an informed source. The source stated that Raisi emphasized in the letter sent on Sunday that the president and the government have effectively been excluded from the major and critical decision-making processes of the country. This situation has created a power vacuum that allows hardline factions within the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to control the situation. Raisi added that under these circumstances, he is unable to manage the government and fulfill his legal responsibilities, thus he has requested to resign immediately. It remains unclear whether Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei will accept the president's resignation, but the content of the letter indicates a profound and unprecedented rift at the highest levels of power.
