This is not due to poor sales of its DRAM products, but rather to the excessively high proportion of high-bandwidth memory (HBM) in its product portfolio, and the difference in production volume with Samsung Electronics. According to data released by market research firm TrendForce on the 14th, SK Hynixs DRAM revenue in the second quarter increased by 37.9% quarter-on-quarter, reaching $38.59 billion. However, its market share dropped by 3.9 percentage points from 28.8% to 24.9%. Samsung Electronics ranked first with a market share of 39.4%, while Micron Technology narrowed the gap with SK Hynix to 1.6 percentage points, with a market share of 23.3%.September 14th - The 18th BRICS Summit opened on Saturday, with the group taking its most concrete step to date in weakening the dominance of the US dollar. On its first day, it adopted a 45-page "New Delhi Declaration" and supported a payment architecture designed to bypass the Western financial system for cross-border trade. For most member countries, this move is gradual. But for Iran—which is under comprehensive US sanctions, a naval blockade, and has been at war with the US and Israel for about six months—its closer to a lifeline. Indian Prime Minister Modi stated after a closed-door meeting that no member country objected to the text. At its core, the economic commitment is to expand trade and investment settled in member countries local currencies and to connect domestic payment and messaging systems so that transactions do not need to pass through the dollar-denominated SWIFT network. According to the declaration, the groups payment working group studied the cross-border interoperability of these channels and explored the use of local currencies for trade settlement and investment. The most attention-grabbing mechanism is BRICS Pay, a decentralized payment messaging framework that combines Indias UPI and Russias SPFS into a shared interoperability layer—a way to clear payments between member states outside of SWIFT.Hong Kong-listed shares of Xiyin-W (00625.HK) fell by more than 5%, with a turnover of over HK$5.86 million.Tesla CEO Elon Musk: GROK 4.8 is a 2.5T model trained using our new C++ software stack, and the model will complete training and begin reinforcement learning this week.

US DOLLAR FUNDAMENTAL FORECAST: BULLISH

After a US inflation data boosted expectations for a Federal Reserve rate rise this week, the US dollar increased and reached levels not seen since September 2002. In June, the consumer price index (CPI) increased by 9.1% as compared to the same month a year before, above the consensus estimate of 8.8%. Core inflation, which excludes the cost of gasoline and food, increased more than was predicted.


According to Fed Funds futures, this raised the likelihood of a 100 basis-point rate rise at the July 27 FOMC meeting to above 50%. These wagers decreased over the weekend but were still larger than they were before to the CPI report. Before the FOMC blackout period started on July 16, representatives from the Federal Reserve assisted in lowering such expectations.


According to the CFTC's most recent Commitments of Traders report, traders reduced their long bets on the US dollar for a second consecutive week. Despite the two-week fall, traders' net long positions in the USD have mainly not changed. The reference period for the data concluded on July 12, leaving markets in the dark about post-CPI positioning.
