On December 2nd, Intel announced an additional investment of RM860 million (US$208 million) to make Malaysia its assembly and testing operations hub, a move Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim stated would boost the Southeast Asian nations key role in the global semiconductor supply chain. He added that Intels decision was based on confidence in Malaysias long-term plans. Anwar stated that Intel already has operations in Malaysia, including a RM12 billion advanced packaging plant in Penang, which is 99% complete. In 2021, the US company pledged a US$7 billion investment to establish a manufacturing base in Penang. Malaysia accounts for approximately 13% of the global chip packaging, assembly, and testing (the final step in semiconductor manufacturing) market, an industry that drives 40% of Malaysias export output. As major governments race to strengthen their semiconductor capabilities, Malaysia has been striving to elevate its position in the global supply chain.Futures News, December 2nd: As of December 1st, the mainstream benzene market price in East China closed at 5320 yuan/ton, down 110 yuan/ton from 5430 yuan/ton at the beginning of November. From a fundamental perspective, December arrivals in East China are concentrated, and major ports in East China will enter a period of continuous inventory accumulation.

Firstly, the slow progress of peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, coupled with Ukraines attacks on European oil ports and pipelines; secondly, the USs air traffic control over a South American country over the weekend, leading to the breakdown of peace talks and heightened tensions in South America. Zhuochuang Information predicts that the return of geopolitical risks has led to an increase in oil prices. However, whether this upward trend can continue depends on close monitoring of developments. If the conflict escalates, oil prices will continue to rise; otherwise, if the situation remains manageable, oil prices will likely experience wider fluctuations. In the short term, the geopolitical risk premium remains high, and oil prices are expected to remain relatively strong.Fitch: Penalties imposed on South Korean banks highlight non-financial risks.On December 2nd, Xiaomi Auto announced that as of today, since April 3rd, 2024, Xiaomi Auto has delivered more than 500,000 vehicles.

On Tuesday, the price of bitcoin (BTC) fell to its lowest level since November 2020 before somewhat recovering to $18,559 by the end of the day. The news that FTX was experiencing liquidity issues, the eventual demise of FTT, and the Binance purchase announcement caused BTC to go below $19,000. The Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index decreased from 31/100 to 29/100, after BTC dropped below $17,000.

 

On Tuesday, bitcoin (BTC) fell by 9.95 percent. BTC concluded the day at $18,559, following a 1.54% fall on Monday. Notably, BTC's losing streak extended to three sessions as it fell below $17,000 for the first time since November 2020.

The gloomy session was spurred by FTX vs. Binance news updates. However, market conditions deteriorated as a result of the announcement that FTX was suffering a liquidity crisis, sparking fears of contagion. While announcements of Binance's planned acquisition of FTX offered some solace, fears of contagion and the threat of more regulatory scrutiny pushed BTC further into the red.

 

In contrast, the NASDAQ Composite Index increased by 0.49 percent on Tuesday, as optimism surrounding the US midterm elections provided support. BTC will likely remain decoupled from the NASDAQ until the full amount of the damage is determined following the failure of FTX. The NASDAQ mini was up 15.5 points this morning.
