Next week's macro outlook: Waller's congressional hearing coincides with CPI, and the market anticipates more clues on interest rate prospects

According to Jinshi reports, the tensions between the U.S. and Iran escalated sharply this week, with mutual attacks leading to the collapse of a fragile ceasefire agreement that had lasted for about three weeks. The inflationary pressure driven by rising oil prices has reignited expectations for the Federal Reserve to tighten its policies. During the same period, U.S. stocks largely ignored geopolitical uncertainties, with the "AI trading" frenzy regaining momentum, as the S&P 500 index approached an all-time high, and both it and the Nasdaq recorded a consecutive weekly gain. SK Hynix's ADR surged 13% on its first day, with a fundraising amount of $26.5 billion, making it the highest fundraising foreign company IPO in U.S. stock market history.In the coming week, the U.S.-Iran situation, U.S. CPI and other economic data, and speeches from Federal Reserve officials will capture Wall Street's attention. There is particular anticipation for whether Federal Reserve Chairman Waller can provide more clues about the interest rate outlook under questioning in Congress, although his determination to cancel forward guidance leaves little room for optimism. The macro data events for next week are as follows:MondayFederal Reserve Governor Waller speaksTuesdayU.S. ADP employment change for the week ending June 27U.S. June CPI and core CPIFederal Reserve Chairman Waller attends the House Financial Services Committee "Federal Reserve Semiannual Monetary Policy Report" hearingWednesday2027 FOMC voter and Chicago Fed President Goolsbee participates in a fireside chatU.S. June PPI and core PPIFOMC permanent voter and New York Fed President Williams speaksFederal Reserve Chairman Waller attends the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee "Federal Reserve Semiannual Monetary Policy Report" hearingFederal Reserve releases the Beige Book on economic conditionsThursdayU.S. initial jobless claims for the week ending July 11, U.S. June retail sales month-on-month, U.S. July Philadelphia Fed manufacturing index2026 FOMC voter and Dallas Fed President Logan speaksFederal Reserve Vice Chairman Jefferson speaks on the economy and monetary policy

Jensen Huang announced at the shareholder meeting that the era of intelligent agents has arrived, with full-scale production of the exclusive Vera CPU

According to Wall Street News, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang announced at the annual shareholder meeting that the era of AI agents has officially arrived. He redefined the new type of data center as an "AI factory" specifically for producing tokens, and revealed that the new Vera CPU and Vera Rubin platform, designed to meet the ultra-low latency demands of agents, have fully entered mass production. Huang emphasized that as AI creates substantial economic value, the demand for computing power is showing an accelerating expansion trend, and its core software ecosystem CUDA is gradually transforming into a toolbox dedicated to agents.Regarding market access and compliance, Huang revealed that the U.S. government has now approved the export of H200 chips to Chinese customers, but this business has yet to generate any revenue, and there remains uncertainty regarding actual importation. At the same time, he rarely issued a public warning about the risks of chip smuggling, clearly stating that NVIDIA will not provide any hardware or software support and repair services for restricted smuggled products, and bluntly said that relying on smuggling to piece together advanced AI data centers is a "dead end." Additionally, he reiterated the long-term commitment to capital returns, planning to return over 50% of free cash flow to shareholders.

CoinUp responds to recent market rumors: Zhu Pan is not the operator of the platform, and the volatility of CPX mainly comes from concentrated selling pressure in the market

According to official news from CoinUp, regarding recent market discussions about CoinUp and CPX, CoinUp stated that Zhu Pan is not the operator of the CoinUp platform and does not participate in the core operations of the platform; his role is solely as a project party for a project launched on the CoinUp platform.CoinUp also expressed gratitude to users, the community, and the media for their attention and supervision of CPX. In response to the recent significant short-term price fluctuations of the CPX/USDT trading pair, the platform previously announced that this fluctuation was mainly due to concentrated selling pressure from the market, and the specific reasons are currently under further investigation and verification, with updates to be provided in a timely manner based on the progress of the investigation.CoinUp emphasized that after a comprehensive security check of the platform, it has not suffered from hacker attacks, data breaches, or system vulnerabilities; the wallet system, account system, and asset custody are all in a secure and controllable state.

NVIDIA plans to market the Vera AI CPU to Chinese customers, and some cloud providers intend to start testing deployments

Sources say that Nvidia has begun marketing its first standalone Central Processing Unit (CPU) product, Vera, to Chinese customers. This chip is designed for Agentic AI systems and has now entered mass production, marking Nvidia's attempt to further expand its presence in the Chinese market through CPU products.Insiders indicate that some Chinese customers have shown interest in Vera. One large Chinese cloud computing company plans to purchase over 300 servers equipped with dual Vera CPUs for testing and will decide whether to scale up purchases after the testing is completed.Vera is built on the Arm Holdings architecture and is Nvidia's first standalone CPU product. Nvidia previously stated that Vera's performance in AI agent-related computing tasks can reach 1.8 times that of competing products, and it is expected that this product will contribute approximately $20 billion in revenue before the end of the current fiscal year (by the end of January next year).Reports point out that as the focus of the AI industry gradually shifts from model training to inference computing, CPUs and custom chips are gaining more attention. Vera also puts Nvidia in direct competition with Intel and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), which have long dominated the server CPU market.Insiders have noted that due to strict restrictions imposed by the U.S. on high-end GPU exports, CPUs face relatively fewer regulatory hurdles in the Chinese market compared to GPU products. Currently, some Chinese customers plan to first deploy Vera chips in overseas data centers for testing. Meanwhile, software ecosystem compatibility and the existing domestic AI chip deployment system may still affect the subsequent large-scale adoption of Vera.
