  • East China Semiconductor: Price Increase Trend for Niche Storage Products Continues in Q2, Expected to Rise Further in H2

    On July 3, East China Semiconductor released a record of its investor relations activities, stating that in Q2, the company benefited from the gradual exit of overseas manufacturers such as Samsung, Micron, Kioxia, and SK Hynix from the niche storage market, leading to a significant contraction in supply. Meanwhile, demand in downstream sectors such as network communication, security monitoring, consumer electronics, industrial control, and automotive electronics continues to recover. The imbalance in market supply and demand is expected to persist in the short term, resulting in an upward trend in the prices of niche storage products. Looking ahead to the full year, as the effects of capacity adjustments by overseas manufacturers are further released, it is anticipated that the prices in the niche storage chip market will continue to rise in the second half of the year.

  • Citi: Reasons for Rate Hike Disappear, Expects Fed to Resume Rate Cuts in October

    On July 3, Citi Research pointed out in its U.S. Economic Weekly published on July 2 that the U.S. June employment report strongly refuted the necessity for a rate hike. In June, the U.S. non-farm payrolls added only 57,000 jobs, far below expectations, with the three-month average plummeting to 111,000. The drop in the unemployment rate is 'superficial,' actually stemming from a sharp decline in the labor force participation rate. Several factors that previously supported a hawkish stance—rising oil prices, accelerating wage growth, and core PCE above target—have since faded, indicating that 'the reasons for a rate hike have disappeared.' Citi maintains its baseline forecast: as the unemployment rate is expected to rise in the coming months, the Federal Reserve will resume rate cuts in October—first cutting by 25 basis points at the FOMC meeting on October 28, 2026, followed by another 25 basis points cut in December, bringing the federal funds rate range to 3.0% to 3.25% by the end of the year. Additionally, it is anticipated that there will be three more rate cuts in 2027, with the terminal rate range at 2.75% to 3.0%.
