美國白宮國家經濟委員會主任哈塞特：將汽油價格壓至每加侖3美元是現實的。

BofA's latest Fund Manager Survey shows global investors who have been aggressively buying equities should consider cutting exposure. Strategists led by Michael Hartnett say asset allocators are extremely bullish: cash holdings fell to 3.6% of assets from 4.1% last month, and US equity allocations are the highest since Dec 2024 with a net overweight of 24%. BofA's bull‑bear indicator reads 9.4 on a 1–10 scale, prompting a recommendation to trim equities and high‑beta positions; the bank warns crowded positioning will limit further summer upside in risk assets.

Leveraged ETFs tracking Korea’s major semiconductor names, including Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, have plunged since end‑May listings, exposing retail investors to large losses. More than ten such funds are near halved; the largest, KODEX SK Hynix single‑stock leveraged ETF (AUM $3.4bn), is down about 45% since listing and over 60% from its June high. Jung In Yun, CEO of Fibonacci Asset Management, said many retail investors treated these ETFs as long‑term holdings and that the losses could curb retail buying of semiconductor stocks and leave any market recovery more dependent on foreign institutional inflows.
