Macroeconomic Outlook for Next Week: CPI Data Reassesses Federal Reserve's Patience, Gold to Receive Directional Signal

Major U.S. stock indexes closed higher this week, with the S&P 500 hitting a new high in more than three months on Friday, according to Golden Ten. The Dow Jones also rose to a three-month high. A better-than-expected non-farm payrolls report eased market concerns about the economy, while tech stocks continued to rally as Tesla (TSLA.O) rebounded from Thursday's sharp decline. However, as of June 4, U.S. equity funds saw outflows for the third week in a row due to persistent concerns about U.S. trade policy. On the commodities front, gold prices fell considerably on Thursday and Friday, but were still up overall for the week, closing at $3,311.68 an ounce. Notably, despite the slightly better-than-expected number of new non-farm payrolls in the U.S. in May, Trump once again put pressure on the Fed on social media to cut interest rates by 100 basis points. Here are the key points that the market will focus on in the new week:

  • Monday 09:30, China's May CPI Year-on-Year;
  • Monday 22:00, US April wholesale sales month-on-month rate;
  • Monday 23:00, US May New York Fed 1-year inflation expectations;
  • Tuesday, to be confirmed, China's M2 money supply year-on-year for May;
  • Tuesday at 14:00, UK three-month ILO unemployment rate for April, unemployment rate for May, and number of jobless claims for May;
  • On Tuesday at 15:10, ECB Governing Council member Villeroy will give a speech;
  • Tuesday 18:00, US May NFIB Small Business Confidence Index;
  • Wednesday 20:30, US May CPI data
  • Wednesday 22:30, U.S. EIA crude oil inventories, Cushing crude oil inventories, Strategic Petroleum Reserve inventories for the week ending June 6
  • Thursday at 14:00, UK April three-month GDP monthly rate, manufacturing output monthly rate
  • Thursday 14:00, UK April seasonally adjusted goods trade balance, industrial output monthly rate
  • Thursday 20:30, initial jobless claims in the U.S. for the week ending June 7, U.S. May PPI
  • Friday 14:00, Germany May CPI MoM Final
  • Friday 14:00, France May CPI MoM Final
  • Friday 22:00, U.S. June one-year inflation rate expectation preliminary value, U.S. June University of Michigan consumer confidence index preliminary value.

The U.S. May CPI report to be released next Wednesday will test the market's optimistic sentiment towards interest rate cuts, as it may show a stagnation in the recent downward trend of inflation. In other economic data, the UK will release its three-month employment report up to April next Tuesday, and the market will be watching for signs of more layoffs.

Argentina's Anti-Corruption Office: Javier Milei's Libra tweet is a personal action and does not violate public morality regulations.

The Argentine Anti-Corruption Office (OA) stated that the country's president Javier Milei acted in a personal capacity when promoting the Libra cryptocurrency ($LIBRA) and did not violate the country's public morality regulations. The investigation report noted: "The promotional posts are unrelated to administrative actions, did not allocate public resources, nor did they receive institutional support, and should be interpreted as personal or private communication, without generating any form of official public policy direction."

Javier Milei initially promoted the Libra cryptocurrency on his personal X account as a way to support small businesses and start-ups in Argentina. But he deleted the post after the token's market cap plummeted 90% from its peak of more than $2 billion. The resulting scandal, dubbed "Cryptogate" by local media, led opposition politicians to call for Javier Milei's impeachment and sparked a lawsuit filed by the country's lawyers representing loss-making investors. Javier Milei asked the Argentine Court of Auditors (OA) to conduct an investigation to "determine whether there has been misconduct by any member of the national government, including the president himself."

Trump said that his "relationship with Musk has ended."

According to CCTV news reports, on June 7 local time, U.S. President Trump stated that if Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk funds Democratic candidates opposing the Republican budget proposal, there will be "very serious consequences."

Trump said: "If he does this, he will pay the price for it." But did not disclose specific measures. Trump added that he has no intention of repairing his relationship with Musk, "I think that relationship is over."

Recently, the two had a public clash on social media over the Republican-led budget proposal, with Trump stating that Musk "shows extreme disrespect for the presidential office." Previously, Musk criticized the massive tax and spending bill pushed by the U.S. government on the social media platform X and attacked Trump, even sharing content related to Jeffrey Epstein's past, which he later deleted.

Trump responded that the allegations regarding Epstein are "old news" and denied any association with him.

In addition, Trump has threatened to revoke government contracts and subsidies for Musk's companies, although no action has been taken on this so far. He emphasized that the Republican Party is unprecedentedly united and optimistic about the smooth passage of the budget.

Hong Kong Financial Secretary Paul Chan: Stablecoins can be used for payment functions through blockchain and other means, and the redemption requests of holders must be completed within one business day.

On June 6, the Hong Kong SAR government published the "Announcement on the Effective Date of the Stable Coin Ordinance (" in the Gazette, specifying August 1, 2025, as the implementation date of the "Stable Coin Ordinance" Chapter 656 ). On June 7, the Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Christopher Hui, stated in an interview that the underlying asset of stablecoins is fiat currency, which can later be used as a payment function in the form of electronic assets through technologies such as blockchain.

Xu Zhengyu stated that the issuers of stablecoins are regulated by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, and the main principles of regulation are similar to those for traditional financial assets. Relevant issuers must comply with regulations regarding reserve asset management and redemption, including the proper segregation of client assets. When stablecoin holders request redemption, it must be completed within one working day to meet user requirements.

When it comes to the future application scenarios of stablecoins, Xu Zhengyu cited an example. Due to the payment characteristics of stablecoins, when there are services or projects taking place in the "Belt and Road" region, and the local currency exchange rates are volatile or the financial system is not very mature, using the local currency for payment may pose certain risks. In such cases, the other party can use stablecoins for payment purposes.

James Wynn: HyperLiquid has never paid any rewards, and its referral program is very poor.

James Wynn tweeted that HyperLiquid has never paid any compensation. "I contacted HyperLiquid twice before, hoping to establish some form of partnership agreement to reciprocate the attention they have received, and although they seem appreciative, they have not offered such an agreement to anyone. Given that their platform is decentralized and operates differently from traditional exchanges, this makes sense."

James Wynn claims to have made about $34,000 through referrals on the HyperLiquid platform. However, "given the number of registered users and transaction volume I brought in, this is just terrible. Their referral program is awful. The referral programs of other platforms are much better."

Tether CEO: Excited about the company's next phase of growth, currently no need to go public.

In response to the analysis that Tether will reach a market capitalization of $515 billion if it goes public, surpassing Costco and Coca-Cola to become the 19th largest company in the world, Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, said that this is a very beautiful number, but it may be a little pessimistic considering the current (and growing) Bitcoin + gold reserves, but it is deeply honored. At the same time, we are looking forward to the next phase of the company's growth, but there is no need to go public yet.

BiT Global, associated with Justin Sun, has withdrawn its lawsuit against Coinbase regarding wBTC.

Law firm BiT Global has agreed to drop a lawsuit against Coinbase for delisting wBTC just two months after launching the competing token cbBTC. According to the filing, BiT Global's attorneys agreed to drop the lawsuit, which means the lawsuit cannot be reopened.

BiT Global, a law firm backed by Justin Sun, became a "strategic partner" with BitGo last year to launch wBTC.

Cetus Protocol will be relaunched on June 8.

According to the official announcement, Cetus Protocol will be relaunched on June 8, 2025, at 11:00 (UTC+8). All users will be able to use all of Cetus's features, including exchanging, managing LP positions, adding/removing liquidity, and receiving fees and rewards. Liquidity will primarily be supplemented through three channels:

  • Assets recovered from the attacker: These assets are returned after the Sui validator successfully votes on-chain.
  • Cetus team's funds: Cetus has invested 100% of its available cash reserves (approximately $7 million in mainstream assets) to bridge the liquidity gap.
  • Sui Foundation's special loan: applied for a loan of 30 million USDC to support recovery.

If the user's LP holdings come from affected pools, the liquidity recovery rate for each pool will be between 85% and 99%, depending on the level of attack on each pool. Due to asset constraints, it is not possible to immediately restore 100% liquidity for all affected pools. The team will use CETUS tokens to compensate for liquidity losses, allocating 15% of the CETUS supply to the compensation contract (including 10% of the total supply from the team's remaining unallocated tokens). Of this, 5% will be available for immediate withdrawal upon restart, while the remaining 10% will be unlocked linearly on a monthly basis over the next 12 months (following the same schedule as the previous team's vesting timeline). The official commitment is not to issue additional tokens and to slightly adjust the release plan. Any assets recovered in the future will be used to continue compensating users or to repurchase CETUS.

UniSat confirmed that a user's asset loss is an isolated incident, and the wallet platform was not compromised.

UniSat posted on platform X stating that it recently investigated a user’s asset loss case. The results show that the UniSat wallet or platform has not been compromised, and the related case is an isolated incident, with no other UniSat wallet users affected. The possible reason is that the victim's browser extension or remote device access was compromised. UniSat Wallet cannot access user funds or private keys, has no ability or authority to freeze assets, but will fully cooperate with law enforcement investigations.

UniSat added that, as the stolen assets involve brc-20 assets that can be traded on PizzaSwap, PizzaSwap services will strive to restrict the operations of known hacker addresses, including "Swap," "Add Liquidity," and "Withdraw," which will help prevent other UTXOs from being contaminated by UTXOs containing stolen assets after entering PizzaSwap.
