According to Reuters, Nasdaq has confirmed that SpaceX (SPCX) will be included in the Nasdaq 100 Index on July 7, which may bring a wave of passive fund buying for the stock. Inclusion in the index typically boosts stock prices, as ETFs that track the performance of the relevant index need to purchase shares of newly included companies. JPMorgan expects that SpaceX's inclusion in the Nasdaq 100 Index could bring in $4.3 billion in passive fund inflows.SpaceX went public on Nasdaq on June 12. To attract more companies to list in the U.S., Nasdaq and index providers such as FTSE Russell and MSCI have previously relaxed some inclusion requirements, including profitability, days since listing, and the number of tradable shares. SpaceX has fluctuated between significant losses and small profits over the past three years, with a net loss of $4.9 billion last year.Michael Field, Chief Equity Market Strategist at Morningstar, stated, "Clearly, there is strong market demand, which is why they are quickly including it in the index." He added that many people will be satisfied with this, but some fund managers and skeptics may not agree, as Morningstar believes the stock is overvalued. Investors typically gain broader market exposure through funds that track the Nasdaq 100 Index, such as Invesco's QQQ and QQQM. Additionally, large language model companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are also expected to submit IPO applications this year or next and may seek valuations exceeding $1 trillion.However, S&P Global stated this month that it will not adjust the requirements for SpaceX to enter major indices like the S&P 500 and will consider including it in relevant indices only after at least 12 months.

During the 2026 New York Tech Week, Zack Anderson, Chief Data and Analytics Officer of J.P. Morgan Payments, shared the latest applications and strategic outlook of AI in payment infrastructure at a seminar. He stated that the application of AI in the banking industry is becoming increasingly mature, with most AI agents currently operating invisibly in the background, significantly enhancing the efficiency of payment flows and risk management capabilities.Anderson pointed out that with the proliferation of Agentic AI, the core challenge facing the payment sector lies in the governance and auditability of "machine authorization" (especially for high-value payments). He emphasized that leveraging AI to handle complex cross-border payment compliance rules is an important opportunity in the near term, which is expected to significantly reduce payment rejection rates. Furthermore, although current corporate AI investments are largely focused on the customer front end, "Agentic Treasury" will be an important early opportunity for the future, and its large-scale application will still rely on further improvement of underlying data and governance infrastructure.

According to Jinshi reports, JPMorgan stated that the U.S. stock market is approaching a "blue sky scenario," primarily due to corporate earnings growth exceeding expectations and the hope that the tensions surrounding the Iran conflict can be eased through diplomatic agreements.

According to Jinshi reports, JPMorgan has raised its year-end target for the S&P 500 index to 7,800 points, believing that the outlook is approaching a "clear sky" scenario.

According to the official announcement, Bitget's stock derivatives have launched 10 underlying assets including KLAC (KLA Corporation), JPM (JPMorgan Chase), GEV (General Electric Vernova), GS (Goldman Sachs), LIN (Linde Group), covering areas such as semiconductor equipment, financial services, energy transition, and ETFs in the South Korean market.

According to CoinDesk, JPMorgan's latest report indicates that as more miners operate close to breakeven, the Bitcoin mining network is showing a higher sensitivity to price changes, with the response of hash rate and mining difficulty to price fluctuations significantly enhanced. The analysis shows that the "elasticity coefficient" of mining difficulty relative to Bitcoin price changes has risen to 0.62 over the past six months, indicating that the hash rate is responding more quickly to market changes.Analysts state that Bitcoin prices have been below production costs for five consecutive months, with approximately 20% of miners currently in a loss-making position. Under profit pressure, publicly listed mining companies have increased their Bitcoin selling scale, with sales exceeding 32,000 BTC in the first quarter alone, surpassing the total for the entire year of 2025. As some high-cost mining machines shut down, the network hash rate declines, and mining difficulty adjusts accordingly.JPMorgan expects that as long as Bitcoin remains below the production cost of about $78,000, the high sensitivity of mining to price fluctuations will continue to exist. At the same time, some mining companies are turning to artificial intelligence and high-performance computing businesses to seek more stable sources of income.

According to a report by ZeroHedge, JPMorgan predicts in a research report that Zhipu will release the next-generation flagship model GLM-5.5 in August, with the parameter count possibly exceeding one trillion (>1T).Zhipu just open-sourced the GLM-5.2 model with a total parameter count of 744B in mid-June, which has performed impressively in several long-range programming benchmarks. The upcoming trillion-parameter model release will become the next key indicator to assess whether Zhipu can continue to maintain an upward trajectory in its technology curve.

According to the Financial Times, informed sources revealed that JPMorgan Chase has stopped its Hong Kong employees from accessing Anthropic's AI models. Currently, the bank's Hong Kong employees can no longer call models like Claude from the internally approved large language model dropdown list.It is reported that this decision is primarily based on the specific wording of the usage terms in the licensing agreement between JPMorgan Chase and Anthropic. According to the relevant terms, the usage scope of Anthropic's models excludes the Greater China region (including Hong Kong). Earlier this year, Goldman Sachs also implemented similar access restrictions for its Hong Kong employees based on a strict interpretation of these terms.Although international institutions previously could usually circumvent regional restrictions by signing global contracts and hosting data overseas, compliance actions among Wall Street banks are tightening as the U.S. government and regulatory agencies increasingly scrutinize the overseas use of AI technology. Anthropic has previously made it clear that its Claude model has never been officially "supported" in Hong Kong.

According to Jinshi, JPMorgan Asset Management strategist Xu Changtai stated in a report that the Federal Reserve is unlikely to adjust interest rates this year, as the committee seems to be patient with the current policy rate. Xu Changtai pointed out that the Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged and completely removed any dovish tendencies from the policy statement. As the Federal Reserve's initial stance was interpreted by the market as hawkish, U.S. Treasury yields rose, while U.S. stocks fell overnight.

J.P. Morgan strategist Tarek Hamid and his team have raised their forecast for total investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure by 2030 to $5.5 trillion in a recent research report, an increase of $400 billion from their prediction last November. The bank noted that in this investment race for super-scale data centers, approximately $4.1 trillion will come from debt financing, with loans covering an average of 85% of total project costs, indicating that AI capital expenditures have shifted to a debt market-centric financing model.Since last November, global bond issuance related to AI and data centers has exceeded $300 billion. The latest typical case comes from chip giant NVIDIA, which completed the pricing of a $25 billion investment-grade bond issuance this Monday, marking its return to the bond market for the first time in five years. This issuance was conducted in seven tranches (with maturities ranging from 2 to 30 years) and attracted oversubscription of up to $85 billion, ultimately increasing the issuance size by 25% from the initial target.The research report emphasizes that although tech giants like NVIDIA, Alphabet, and Amazon are generating substantial cash flow from the AI boom (with NVIDIA estimating free cash flow exceeding $200 billion this fiscal year), these giants still choose to issue hundreds of billions of dollars in bonds. This indicates that such bond issuance is not due to a "lack of financing," but rather that the credit market is confirming the pricing of AI assets.

According to GeekWire, AI startup Prometheus, co-founded by Jeff Bezos, has completed a $12 billion Series B funding round, with a valuation of approximately $41 billion. Investors include JPMorgan Chase, BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, DST Global, and Arch Venture Partners.Prometheus has dropped "Project" from its original name and is dedicated to creating what Bezos calls "general artificial intelligence engineers," using AI tools to accelerate the physical product development process from design to manufacturing. Prometheus co-CEO Vik Bajaj stated that over the past few years, they have been able to transform complex issues from design to manufacturing into end-to-end AI problems. Bezos revealed that the company may acquire some manufacturing businesses that could benefit from its technology and help improve their production processes.This marks Bezos's first CEO role since stepping down as Amazon's CEO in 2021. The company currently has about 150 employees and is headquartered in San Francisco, with teams in London and Zurich. Bezos mentioned that the product launch timeline has not yet been determined, but an early version is set to be released soon.

J.P. Morgan analysts indicate that investors are continuously withdrawing from the so-called "currency devaluation trades," with gold-related allocations continuing to decline, while the pace of Bitcoin's retreat has further accelerated recently.The report notes that for the week ending June 5, approximately $20 billion flowed out of gold ETFs; Bitcoin ETFs have seen a gradual increase in outflows for four consecutive weeks. In the futures market, institutional investors are also reducing their exposure to gold and Bitcoin, indicating that both retail and institutional funds are lowering their allocations against inflation, currency devaluation, and geopolitical risks.J.P. Morgan believes that Bitcoin had previously become a primary expression of "currency devaluation trades" since the Middle East conflict, but it has reversed since early May and has further weakened recently. Meanwhile, the decline in liquidity in the ETF and futures markets has also amplified Bitcoin's price correction.Analysts added that whether the crypto market can improve in the second half of the year still depends on two key factors: whether crypto treasury companies can provide clearer arrangements for dividend payments, and whether the U.S. Clarity Act can be approved.

According to The Information, informed sources reveal that Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan are exploring trading methods based on the cost of computing power, including futures contracts related to GPU leasing prices.As one of the scarcest resources in the AI boom, related futures are expected to be listed by exchanges later this year. Industry insiders say this initiative demonstrates that hundreds of billions of dollars flowing into data centers and the chip sector are reshaping the financial market landscape. For banks providing financing for AI infrastructure construction, such innovative tools may become new means of managing risk.

According to The Block, JPMorgan analysts stated in their latest report that although Strategy's previous sale of 32 bitcoins caused market fluctuations, it was merely a symbolic operation, and the real issue lies in the lack of demand from new investors.The report pointed out that Strategy's current dollar reserves are only sufficient to cover about 6.3 months of preferred stock dividends, and it is recommended that they rebuild their dollar reserves to restore investor confidence. JPMorgan also lowered its expectations, believing that the likelihood of the U.S. crypto market structure bill (Clarity Act) passing this year is now below 50%, and has shifted to a cautious stance on digital assets as a whole.Nevertheless, analysts still expect Strategy to continue buying bitcoins and believe that the current market weakness may become a bullish reversal signal in the future.

According to BBX data, Bitcoin fell to a new low of $61,300 this year yesterday, putting pressure on the cryptocurrency sector. Key signals have emerged from institutions and the legislative level, with the core dynamics as follows:Michael Saylor, founder of Strategy, Inc. (NASDAQ: $MSTR), publicly stated on June 4 that the current decline in Bitcoin is not due to a deterioration in BTC fundamentals, but rather a "phase rotation" of capital from Bitcoin to AI stocks, SpaceX IPO, and other emerging assets—"Bitcoin is not broken; it’s just temporarily not the main character in the momentum trade." Saylor also reiterated his position of continued accumulation. Previously, Strategy spent approximately $2.01 billion (average price $80,985) to acquire 24,869 BTC in the week from May 11 to 17, bringing their total holdings to 843,738 BTC with a total cost of about $63.87 billion (average price $75,700); currently, BTC has fallen below the cost line of $12,300, and all of the company's holdings are in a state of unrealized loss, but management has not publicly indicated any intention to reduce their positions.JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: $JPM) reported by CoinDesk on June 4 warned in its latest research report that the legislative time window for the CLARITY Act to be voted on by the full Senate is "rapidly narrowing." The wording discrepancies in the stablecoin yield provisions have evolved into the most critical unresolved obstacle for the bill—banks insist on retaining restrictions on "passive income," while the cryptocurrency industry strives for "activity incentive space." If a compromise cannot be reached between the two parties within this month, the timeline for the Senate to complete a 60-vote approval before July 4 will be completely invalidated; the report also pointed out that the capital siphoning effect from the SpaceX IPO and AI stocks has further suppressed institutions' willingness to allocate to BTC in the short term.

According to The Wall Street Journal, several large banks in the United States plan to launch a tokenized deposit network next year, aimed at addressing the threat posed by stablecoins and cryptocurrency companies that have accelerated their penetration into traditional banking with the support of the Trump administration.The network will connect traditional payment rails with digital asset infrastructure, operated by the real-time payment network company Clearing House, which is jointly owned by several major banks, including JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Wells Fargo.

According to Jinshi, Natalia Lipichina, head of equity strategy for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa at JPMorgan, stated that the "super cycle" of earnings in the United States will drive the stock market to new highs, a trend propelled by significant investments from large corporations and advancements in artificial intelligence agent technology.Lipichina mentioned that the earnings growth of the S&P 500 index has reached its highest level in five years, with an expected earnings growth rate of up to 20% in 2026.

According to BBX data, the global competition between crypto compliance infrastructure and traditional financial capital entered a heated stage yesterday, with brokerage giants and old money on Wall Street clashing over the advancement of legislation. The core dynamics are as follows:Coinbase receives CFTC 16-page no-action letter authorization: Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: $COIN) officially announced that the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has issued a 16-page "no-action letter" to its subsidiary CFM. This authorizes CFM to officially offer perpetual contracts and options for "digital commodities" such as BTC, ETH, SOL, and DOGE to U.S. institutional clients through the foreign exchange Deribit FZE, which it previously acquired for $2.9 billion. The letter also allows clients to directly transfer digital assets and stablecoins to Deribit FZE as collateral.Dimon publicly declares war on the CLARITY Act: Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: $JPM), publicly expressed strong opposition to the CLARITY Act currently advancing in the Senate during a Fox Business program. Dimon warned that the act allows crypto companies to pay users "yield rewards" in stablecoins, effectively bypassing the capital and compliance standards of traditional banking. He formed a coalition with the American Bankers Association, publicly committing to "fight to the end" against this legislation.

According to Forbes, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon warned about the U.S. cryptocurrency market structure bill, the CLARITY Act, stating that if stablecoin issuers are allowed to provide returns to users in a manner similar to bank deposit interest, the related model could eventually collapse.Dimon stated that the bill allows cryptocurrency companies to offer returns similar to deposit interest through stablecoin accounts without the corresponding regulatory protections, and the banking industry would not accept such arrangements. He said, "I am not worried about stablecoins themselves, but if this happens, I will not participate, and it will ultimately collapse."The CLARITY Act aims to clarify the regulatory framework for the U.S. cryptocurrency industry and delineate the responsibilities of regulatory agencies. Previously, Patrick Witt, Executive Director of the U.S. Digital Asset Advisory Committee, stated that the Trump administration planned to push for the bill's passage before July 4. However, Polymarket data shows that the probability of the CLARITY Act passing by 2026 has fallen from nearly 70% to just above 50%.

According to CoinDesk, JPMorgan analyst Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou and others stated that as signs of easing tensions in the Middle East emerge, investors are gradually withdrawing from the Bitcoin and gold markets. The "devaluation trade" that had driven demand for both is losing momentum.In the past two weeks, both Bitcoin and gold-related ETFs have seen significant outflows, and institutional positions in the CME futures market have also weakened simultaneously. This trend indicates that investors are retreating from the macro hedging trades that had become popular due to inflation concerns and global instability, and it is not that Bitcoin funds are shifting to gold, but rather that both asset classes are facing a simultaneous decline in demand. Since the Iran conflict, Bitcoin has been a major representation of the "devaluation trade."
