June 25 – The Ministry of Ecology and Environment held its regular June press conference today (June 25). Officials stated that my country has entered its main flood season, and in response to the severe situation of potentially large fluctuations in water quality during this period, the Ministry has acted swiftly and made arrangements. Regarding abnormal water quality fluctuations during the flood season, the Ministry will promptly conduct analysis and consultations, providing point-to-point guidance to local authorities to identify the causes and accelerate rectification. Simultaneously, it will promote joint risk assessment and collaborative countermeasures between upstream and downstream areas, as well as between left and right banks of river basins, to avoid situations where "upstream pollution leads to downstream liability" or "left-bank remediation leads to right-bank relapse," thus forming a closed-loop management system for problem assignment, rectification implementation, and follow-up evaluation.XPeng Motors announced that the XPeng X9 model has been delivered more than 60,000 times globally.Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs at the U.S. State Department, Johnson: The U.S. Embassy in Caracas reports that all U.S. personnel have been confirmed safe following the earthquake in Venezuela.Hong Kong-listed tech stocks collectively declined, with Trip.com Group-S (09961.HK) falling over 9%, Alibaba (09988.HK) down nearly 5%, Baidu (09888.HK) and Xiaomi Group (01810.HK) down over 3%, JD.com (09618.HK) down nearly 3%, and Meituan (03690.HK) down over 2%.On June 25th, the Chongqing Municipal Development and Reform Commission drafted the "Notice on Improving the Service Level of Foreign Investment Projects Throughout Their Life Cycle (Draft for Public Comment)," and is now soliciting public opinions and suggestions.

During the Asian session, the gold price (XAU/USD) is hovering in a narrow range around the immediate barrier of $1,870. The precious metal hopes to extend its uptrend in light of market players' increased risk appetite.

 

S&P500 futures have contributed to their gains during Friday's surge, indicating an optimistic market sentiment. The US Dollar Index (DXY) has detected resistance at 103.50 and is likely to find support near 103.00. The yields on 10-year US Treasuries have decreased to approximately 3.56 percent due to a loss in safe-haven attraction.

 

Amidst mounting prospects of a U.S. recession, the gold price is garnering considerable attention. Following a string of declines in the US ISM Manufacturing PMI, the Services PMI has also declined, indicating a decline in overall demand in the United States economy. The Services PMI dropped sharply to 49.6 compared to the predicted 55.0. In addition, the New Orders Index, a measure of future demand, plummeted to 45.2% as opposed to the anticipated 58.5%. The U.S. dollar is affected by a slowdown in economic activity and its expectations for the future.
