In the past 24 hours, global capital markets have been rapidly switching between two main lines:
On one side, there's the wealth myth and liquidity frenzy sparked by SpaceX's IPO.
On the flip side, the risk premium from the easing of the US-Iran geopolitical conflict is collapsing rapidly.
In this context, commodities are pulling back, risk assets are bouncing back, and funds are re-embracing the growth narrative, marking a typical 're-pricing window' in the market.
🧱 Geopolitical chessboard: From conflict premium to agreement pricing
The US-Iran situation is showing signs of a cooling phase, with the bulls signaling a potential agreement.
Iran's foreign minister states that 'we have never been this close to an agreement', and US officials expect the probability of reaching a framework agreement in the short term to rise significantly; third-party countries have begun discussing potential signing arrangements...
But the core disagreement remains—
· Controversies remain regarding the execution sequence mechanism of agreements;
· Internal hardliners in Iran still present resistance;
· The path of 'security exchange for sanction alleviation' is still not fully unified;
Market interpretation is simple: risks don’t need to completely disappear, just need to be 'priceable'.
💹 Capital mapping: from fear trading to growth trading
The sharp decline in geopolitical risk premiums directly drove major global stock indices to rebound strongly, crude oil to plunge, and risk-averse funds to flow out of precious metals in the macro market.
📈 US stocks: The three major indices collectively closed higher, with the Dow leading the charge, and SpaceX's market debut igniting the market. Nasdaq +0.31%, S&P +0.50%, Dow +0.70%;
🛢️ Crude oil: continuing the downward trend, WTI at $84, Brent at $87;
🥇 Gold: Gold shows slight fluctuations upwards, while silver is on a strong rise;
💵 Forex: The dollar has pulled back, the yen and euro have rebounded, and non-USD currencies are strengthening;
🚀 SpaceX: A capital experiment of a trillion-dollar myth
SpaceX's first-day trading performance has become the market's core focus:
· The first-day increase was close to double digits
· Market cap has surpassed the $2 trillion level
· Market sentiment drives it into the 'exponential revaluation phase'
· Musk's personal wealth has entered the 'trillion-dollar symbolic range'
Despite companies still being in a high-investment and loss-expansion phase, the logic of the capital market is very clear:
· Prices are based not on profits, but on the 'future control premium';
· More importantly, this IPO is seen by Wall Street as: a pricing experiment for composite tech assets in AI and aerospace, a pressure test sample for the next round of tech giant IPOs (AI companies).
🏦 Wall Street and China: Redistribution of the stock market
Institutions like BlackRock are still adjusting their wealth management frameworks in China, with the core signal being: global capital is still strengthening its position in the Asian wealth market, but the strategy is shifting from 'growth expansion' to 'structural management'.
Essentially: global funds are shifting from incremental competition to stock optimization.
💸 Web3 overview: structural replenishment amidst low-volume fluctuations
In the past 24 hours, the crypto market has shown a low-volume consolidation after large swings. BTC is hovering around $63,500, ETH is slightly testing support, and altcoins are generally experiencing slight declines. The main funds in the market are fully replenishing into mainstream coins.
① The failure of SpaceX's 'tokenized IPO' event
The 'tokenized IPO share' plans attempted by platforms like Bybit, Binance, and Bitget have ultimately been canceled, and the reasons are not complicated:
· Scarcity of shares in the primary market;
· Physical assets cannot be fully mapped on-chain;
· Clearing and delivery mechanisms are mismatched;
② Regulatory game: power struggle over prediction markets
Regarding prediction markets (like Polymarket), there is a clear jurisdictional disagreement between the SEC and CFTC. The regulatory framework remains in a gray area competition state, essentially a struggle for control over 'financialization of information'.
🧘 Insights on the mind:
The failure of SpaceX's IPO shares and the regulatory authorities' struggle over prediction markets are fundamentally a contest of private desires and power boundaries, with the mainline still being regulatory authority; decentralized Web3 must comply with regulatory intentions.
🧘 Conclusion:
The essence of the current market is not 'up or down', but: does risk still need to be priced at a high premium.
As local geopolitical conflicts enter a cooling phase, liquidity returns to growth assets, and tech myths continue to reshape valuation systems, the market is experiencing a round of:
From 'fear pricing' → 'narrative pricing' → 'growth pricing' transition cycle.
In this cycle, what truly matters is not the noise, but the mainline:
· Institutional dividends;
· Direction of liquidity;
· Core asset control;
