🔴 ASIA IN FREE FALL - TECH PANIC SPREADS

Asian markets are starting the week in crisis mode. South Korea's KOSPI crashed 8.4% to ~7,477 at the open, triggering a Level 1 circuit breaker - only the 9th time in KOSPI history - halting trading for 20 minutes. Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix both tumbled ~10%, dragging the entire index lower.

Japan's Nikkei 225 opened at 63,893 and plunged nearly 4% intraday to a low of ~64,000, as tech names Kioxia (-10%) and SoftBank (-8.6%) led the selloff. Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell ~1.3% to around 24,643 - its lowest since March 2026.


📉 WALL STREET - FRIDAY CLOSE

US equities finished last week with a violent selloff. The Nasdaq lost 4.18% to 25,709 - its worst single session since April 2025. The S&P 500 dropped 2.64% to 7,383.74. The Dow fell 695 points (1.35%) to 50,866.78. Broadcom, Marvell, Micron, Intel and AMD all fell between 7% and 16%.

The trigger: May nonfarm payrolls surged to 172,000 - roughly double the 85,000 forecast - pushing Treasury yields sharply higher and reigniting rate-hike fears ahead of the June 16-17 FOMC meeting.


💛 GOLD & OIL

Gold is trading around $4,337/oz this morning, under pressure from the strong dollar and Fed rate-hike bets - near its lowest level since March 2026.

Oil is surging. Brent is up to ~$96.18/bbl (+3.3%) and WTI is at ~$93.45/bbl (+3.4%) after Israel launched strikes on Iranian military targets over the weekend, escalating the US-Iran standoff and deepening fears over Strait of Hormuz supply disruptions.


💱 FOREX

EUR/USD has slipped to ~1.152 - its lowest since April - after the NFP shock. USD/JPY is holding near 160.30, back at levels where Japanese authorities have previously intervened. The South Korean won has weakened to crisis-era levels last seen in 2008.


CRYPTO

Bitcoin is trading at ~$62,100, edging up ~2% in a modest risk recovery attempt after hitting multi-month lows last week.


⚠️ KEY DRIVERS THIS WEEK


  • ECB rate decision - June 11 (25 bps hike priced in)
  • FOMC meeting - June 16-17
  • US May CPI data
  • US-Iran ceasefire negotiations

BoJ rate decision (hike expected)
