Energy and bond market - Economic Calendar starting 07Jul25
Public Holidays There are no public holidays in China, Singapore, America or Hong Kong. Economic Calendar (07Jul25) Economic Outlook (from Grok) Energy Market: The prior crude oil inventory build (3.845M) suggests an oversupply. If this trend persists, oil prices may soften, potentially easing inflationary pressures. A reversal to a drawdown could tighten supply and support higher prices. Monetary Policy: The FOMC Meeting Minutes will be a key focus. Any indication of a hawkish stance (e.g., plans for rate hikes) could strengthen the U.S. dollar and pressure equities, while a dovish tone (e.g., rate cuts) might boost risk assets. Markets will scrutinise the Fed’s view on inflation and labour market strength. Bond Market: The 10-year and 30-year Note Auctions will refle
Elon for President? Why Tesla Investors Are at a Crossroads
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ In a season dominated by political theatrics, economic uncertainty, and fast-changing stock market dynamics, one name continues to loom larger than life: Elon Musk. The world’s richest man, prolific innovator, and polarizing entrepreneur has once again grabbed headlines — this time, by floating the idea of running for President of the United States. His offhand comments, characteristically delivered with a mix of provocation and mischief, have set social media and cable news abuzz. While Musk’s hypothetical candidacy may ultimately be more stunt than serious ambition — the Constitution bars non-natural-born citizens from becoming President — the discussion underscores how deeply he’s embedded himself in America’s cultural and

Countdown to Tariff D-Day: Is Trump’s Next Move a Market Time Bomb?
$S&P 500(.SPX)$$NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ As the 2026 U.S. presidential election season heats up, trade policy has once again taken center stage. Former President Donald Trump, now the Republican front-runner, has vowed to impose sweeping new tariffs if elected — a move that could reverberate through global markets, corporate earnings, and consumer prices alike. Trump has already laid out the broad contours of his proposed tariff agenda: a blanket 10% tariff on all imports into the United States, with even higher rates (possibly 60% or more) on Chinese goods. This dramatic shift, which he calls a “universal baseline tariff,” represents a major escalation of his first-term trade policies and has left investors

Countdown to Tariff DDL: How Will Trump’s Next Move Affect Markets?
The tariff deadline is barreling toward us, and the stakes are sky-high. Trump’s 90-day tariff pause ends July 9, with the real action—tariffs kicking in—set for August 1. So far, only the UK and Vietnam have dodged the bullet, leaving giants like China, the EU, and Japan in a frantic scramble to strike deals. With markets perched near record highs, Trump’s next move could either fuel a rally or spark a brutal sell-off. Will other countries cut a deal in time? How will stocks react this week? And have you battened down the hatches on your portfolio? Let’s dive in. The Tariff Clock Is Ticking: What’s Happening? Trump dropped a bombshell back in April, pausing tariffs for 90 days to give countries a shot at negotiating trade deals. That grace period expires July 9, but the tariffs won’t hit
Musk’s America Party: Reform or Risk? Exit or Double on Tesla?
On July 5, Elon Musk officially announced on social media platform X:“Today, the founding of the ‘America Party’ gives you back your freedom.”When asked how he views billionaire Elon Musk launching a new political party, U.S. President Donald Trump responded that Musk “can have some fun with it,” but called the move “ridiculous.”Trump vs. Musk: A Final Fallout? What’s the Goal of the America Party?During the 2024 presidential election, Musk donated nearly $300 million to support Trump’s campaign. After Trump won, Musk was appointed as the head of the newly formedDOGE and actively participated in efforts to cut federal spending and other political activities. At one point, he was even dubbed the “Shadow President” by foreign media. Musk was a near-constant presence in the Oval Office back t
$NVDA 20260320 100.0 PUT$ Causiously optimistic in this current volatile market. Be patient and resilient, there are many opportunities but dangerous traps as well.
To be honest, I’ve become short-term bearish on $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ , mainly due to Elon Musk’s deepening involvement in politics. The launch of the America Party and the growing tension with Trump introduce a layer of unpredictability that markets hate. As a CEO, Musk’s attention is already split across multiple ventures—and now, political ambitions could stretch him even thinner. That said, I still believe in Tesla’s long-term potential. The company remains at the forefront of EV innovation, battery tech, and AI-driven autonomous systems. Its lead in FSD, vertical integration, and global manufacturing footprint are hard to replicate. Political distractions aside, Tesla’s core team and engineering talent continue to push boundaries—and I think

Rumors never sleep in the Musk‑verse. After another viral hint that Elon Musk might someday run for U.S. president, Wall Street is buzzing: if the world’s most outspoken CEO did throw his hat into the political ring in 2025, would Tesla stock take off… or fall flat? Below is a quick thought experiment on how a hypothetical “Musk 2025” bid could move the market. 🚀 The Bull Case — Why Tesla Could Soar 24/7 Media Spotlight A presidential run would keep Musk — and by extension Tesla — on every front page and newsfeed. Free publicity on that scale can translate into brand power, showroom traffic, and higher retail demand.
