South Korea's stock market experienced a rapid rebound after a "Black Monday," but individual investors who had aggressively bought the dip in semiconductor leaders found themselves in a "buy the dip, sell the rebound" situation. According to data from the Korea Exchange, Korean retail investors collectively purchased approximately 3.89 trillion won worth of Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. This included a net buy of 1.10 trillion won in Samsung Electronics and 2.79 trillion won in SK Hynix. On that day, the two companies' stocks plunged by 10.7% and 15.37%, respectively, with retail investors absorbing the shares sold by foreign and institutional investors. However, as semiconductor stocks rebounded, retail investors quickly turned into sellers. Over the two days of the 14th and 15th, individual investors sold a cumulative 1.45 trillion won in Samsung Electronics and 3.70 trillion won in SK Hynix, bringing the total net sell-off of the two stocks to 5.15 trillion won.Data shows that the estimated average purchase price for Samsung Electronics by retail investors on the 13th was around 261,700 won, while the average selling price over the following two days was about 259,400 won. For SK Hynix, the average purchase price was approximately 1,938,500 won, and the average selling price was around 1,849,300 won. Calculated based on the positions bought on the 13th, retail investors suffered a total loss of about 138.2 billion won. Meanwhile, Samsung Electronics rose by approximately 9.8% cumulatively over the 14th and 15th, while SK Hynix gained about 12.8% over the same period. However, as a large portion of the dip-buying funds were sold off early in the rebound on the 14th, they failed to fully capitalize on the subsequent rally. (Etoday)

OdailyOdaily Planet Daily News The U.S. Senate has passed a resolution opposing an administrative pardon for former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried. The non-binding measure states that Bankman-Fried should not receive an administrative pardon and reaffirms the Senate's commitment to the rule of law and the integrity of the U.S. financial system. The resolution was introduced by Senator Ruben Gallego on June 17, with Senator Cynthia Lummis as a co-sponsor, opposing any federal pardon for Bankman-Fried, including a presidential pardon or commutation of sentence. A simple Senate resolution does not require approval from the House of Representatives or the President and carries no legal force. Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in federal prison in March 2024 on charges of fraud and conspiracy related to the collapse of FTX in 2022. Speculation intensified after he applied for a pardon from Donald Trump in June 2026, with Department of Justice records showing the request is pending. Polymarket traders currently place the probability of Donald Trump pardoning Bankman-Fried before July 31 at less than 1%. The trading volume for this market exceeds $734,000.

According to CryptoQuant analyst Crazzyblockk, the current BTC exchange leverage ratio has breached the top 5% range of historical extremes, far exceeding the historical average, while exchange stablecoin reserves continue to shrink, spot liquidity is severely insufficient, and the scale of borrowed margin has significantly surpassed the spot buy orders that can be absorbed. The analyst noted that this rally is built on borrowed margin lacking underlying support, the market structure is extremely fragile, and deleveraging events are not a matter of probability, but a mathematical inevitability of mean reversion. Once market makers trigger liquidation, prices will face severe downward shock. Investors are advised to reduce leverage exposure, protect spot positions, and consider opening new positions only after leverage indicators decline.
