On May 26th, Goldman Sachs issued a report raising its target price for NetEase-S (09999.HK) Hong Kong shares by 3.8%, from HK$250 to HK$260, while also raising its target price for US shares to US$166, reiterating its "Buy" rating. The bank stated that NetEases Q1 2026 results were strong, but the companys share price is currently very weak, and the bank believes the price correction has been excessive, especially given the 6% upward revision of earnings per share following the earnings announcement. The most surprising aspect of the companys quarterly results was the record-high profit margin, with gross margin increasing by 500 basis points quarter-on-quarter. This is because the companys profits mainly stemmed from the transformation of payment channels. Although AI is still in its early stages, it continues to permeate the companys game development, and cost benefits are beginning to appear. Looking ahead, the bank believes the company has abundant catalysts in the second half of 2026: 1) New game launches. The bank expects new games to generate RMB 5.9 billion in revenue over 12 months; 2) Strong profit growth. Operating profit is expected to continue to grow by 15-20% for the remainder of the year; 3) If it becomes a major Hong Kong listing and is included in the Southbound Stock Connect, it will help diversify the flow of funds to investors in the stock.On May 26th, according to Tianyancha App, Shenzhen Shengang Smart Investment Private Equity Investment Fund Partnership (Limited Partnership) was recently established.

Himino stated on Tuesday, "Regarding monetary policy and long-term interest rates, we believe it is very important to maintain market confidence that inflation will be properly controlled by adjusting the degree of monetary easing at an appropriate pace in response to future economic, price, and financial conditions." This statement seems to suggest that the Bank of Japan is open to raising interest rates in the near future. Himino, along with other Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda and other officials, have recently emphasized the need for a responsible attitude towards financial markets, and the market widely expects the Bank of Japan to raise interest rates at its meeting next month. Meanwhile, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi subtly signaled last week her desire for the Bank of Japan to maintain policy stability as she attempts to mitigate the economic impact of the war with Iran. Himino stated, "The Bank of Japan will strive to implement policies appropriately to maintain this market confidence and achieve its price stability objective in a sustainable and stable manner."On May 26th, at 10:00 AM, the Guangzhou Municipal Peoples Government Information Office held its 19th press conference of 2026 in the Guangzhou Municipal Press Conference Hall. Feng Wei, Party Secretary and Director of the Guangzhou Housing Provident Fund Management Center, explained the relaxed policy on commercial-to-provident-fund loan conversion. Feng Wei stated that the revision of the "commercial-to-provident-fund conversion" policy systematically expands the scope of beneficiaries and lowers the threshold for loan conversion. Previously, applications for commercial-to-provident-fund conversion could only be made through the provident funds entrusted bank. After the revision, commercial loans from non-provident-fund entrusted banks, if meeting the conditions, can also be converted into provident fund loans. The calculation ratio for the loanable amount in commercial-to-provident-fund conversion has increased from 70% to 80%, further increasing support for existing commercial loans and striving to reduce the loan interest burden on contributors.The Indonesian rupiah continued its decline against the US dollar, hitting a record low of 17,785.

On Wednesday, the price of bitcoin (BTC) plummeted by 1.63 percent. BTC ended Tuesday at $20,165, a decrease of 0.04% from its opening price.

 

BTC rose to a high of $20,817 in response to the FOMC Statement, following a range-bound morning. BTC surpassed the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $20,686 before falling to an intraday low of $20,086. BTC went below the First and Second Major Support Levels (S1 and S2) at $20,327 and $20,154, respectively.

 

In accordance with forecasts, the Fed raised rates by 75 basis points on Wednesday. The FOMC Statement hinted at a likely policy move in December, lending credence to December Fed pivot wagers. The Rate Statement pushed BTC and ETH to their daily peaks.

 

However, Fed Chair Powell dashed prospects for a reversal, citing excessive inflation and the need to continue forward. Powell remarked that the "final level of interest rates will be higher than anticipated."

 

As a result, the NASDAQ Composite Index fell 3.36 percent, sending BTC and ETH into the negative.

 

Today, attention will be on US factory orders, jobless claims, and the ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI. We anticipate the PMI and its subcomponents to have the most effect.

 

Due to the sensitivity of BTC and ETH to US economic statistics and the FED, the correlation with the NASDAQ Composite Index remains intact. The NASDAQ 100 Mini was up 35 points this morning.
