Jul 01 ,2026

  • Synopsis:

    • Asian markets set for negative start to Thursday trade. Futures signaling steep opening declines in South Korea and Japan, and mild initial losses in Australia. Hong Kong resumes trade after being offline Wednesday. S&P 500 futures unchanged afterhours. Australian bonds weakening after Treasury yields extended their recent upshift. Dollar remains near 40-year high against yen, financial crisis highs against Korean won. Crude back down to early February lows. Gold and silver retreating from earlier highs. Bitcoin fluctuating around $60K.

    • Semis/memory sold off overnight with SOX ending down 6%. Follows Wednesday's memory pullback in Asia where Samsung and SK Hynix drove Kospi's selloff. Continues volatile stretch with selling episodes attributed to combination of stretched positioning and overbought conditions while rebounds tabbed to dip buying activity. Won depreciation pressures another factor suspected of driving foreign selling of Korean equities. No change in fundamentals with strategists continuing to upgrade memory earnings and PTs amid elongated HBM pricing tailwinds.

    • South Korean CPI inflation rose in-line with forecasts to highest since Dec-2023 amid surge in petroleum prices. Core measure unchanged. Comes after BOK shifted to hawkish rate stance and foreshadowed rate hikes amid rising inflation. US nonfarm payrolls the other main data point with consensus looking for a pullback from May's outsized increase in headline employment. Speaking at ECB central banking forum in Sintra, Fed Chair Warsh said inflation risks have subsided though he didn't offer anything of substance on policy.
