On August 28th, it was announced that the "Twelve Measures for Financial Empowerment of the High-Quality Development of the Low-Altitude Economy Industry in the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone" will officially take effect on September 1st this year and will be valid until December 31st, 2028. The Measures propose leveraging the capital market service functions of the "Specialized, Refined, and Innovative" board of the Shenzhen Qianhai Equity Exchange Center, establishing a "Qianhai Low-Altitude Economy Zone," and innovatively launching a "Loan Upon Listing" special financing service. It encourages providing listing cultivation, compliance guidance, and cross-border capital services to low-altitude economy enterprises, connecting them tiered to the Shanghai and Shenzhen main boards, the ChiNext board, the STAR Market, and the Beijing Stock Exchange, among other multi-tiered capital markets. It supports more low-altitude economy enterprises to list on the National Equities Exchange and Quotations (NEEQ) through a "green channel" review process. Addressing the difficulties and high costs of financing in key links of the low-altitude industry chain, the Measures innovatively introduce a credit risk-sharing mechanism and encourage banking institutions to develop products such as "Talent Loans," "R&D Loans," and "Low-Altitude Industry Cluster Loans" for the Qianhai low-altitude economy.The Shenzhou-23 astronaut crew successfully completed their extravehicular activity.August 28th - According to the Financial Times, UK Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healy will temporarily shelve the target of increasing defense spending to 3% of GDP by 2030 when he presents his first budget in October, and difficult decisions on how to fund the armed forces will also be postponed. Healy had previously insisted that the UK should increase defense spending to 3% of GDP by 2030 as a milestone to achieve NATOs 3.5% target by 2035, but this position is now fraught with uncertainty. Government insiders say Healys budget will focus on filling the nearly £5 billion funding gap for defense equipment left by former Prime Minister Starmer. Bee Boileau, a researcher at the Institute for Fiscal Studies, said that if the government increases defense spending to 3% of GDP by 2030, it will require an additional £10 billion annually at current prices. A further increase to 3.5% would require an additional £25 billion. Under current plans, UK defense spending will reach 2.7% of GDP by 2030.According to the Financial Times, UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Healy will postpone his target of spending 3% of GDP on defense by 2030.August 28th - Tencent Hunyuan announced the release of Hy4 preview today.

S&P 500 (SPY) Dives Towards 3500 As Inflation Rate Exceeds Expectations

S&P 500 Falls by 2% Prior Market Trading

Following the publication of inflation statistics, S&P 500 futures are touching new lows. In contrast to the expert consensus of 8.1%, the figures showed that the inflation rate decreased from 8.3% in August to 8.2% in September.


Analysts predicted that the core inflation rate would go to 6.5%, but it actually jumped from 6.3% in August to 6.6% in September.


In the meanwhile, according to the Initial Jobless Claims report, 228,000 Americans applied for unemployment benefits in a single week, much in line with expert expectations.


Treasury rates reached annual highs as traders gambled on aggressive rate rises from the Fed in response to inflation readings that were stronger than anticipated. The 10-year Treasury yield is now attempting to stabilize above the psychologically significant 4.00% level. In the event that this effort succeeds, it will pick up further upward momentum and rise towards 4.10%, which is negative for equities.


At the start of today's trading session, tech stocks are probably going to lose ground. Leading tech companies' shares are already down more than 2% in premarket trade, including Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, and Tesla.


Whether traders would go for safe-haven assets in the stock market today remains to be seen. Money will move into the U.S. dollar, which is already reaching new highs, in case the fear spreads. Commodities are negatively impacted by a strong dollar, thus equities with a focus on commodities are probably going to see significant pressure today.
