Iranian President Pezechzian: The world is amazed by Iran’s “resistance, unity and cohesion”.Iranian President Pesshizian: Washington made the mistake of predicting before the war that Iran would fall under American aggression and become like Venezuela.August 23 – According to the Financial Times, despite the severe blow to semiconductor products in July and August, investors poured billions of dollars into risk-leveraged funds tracking semiconductor companies in an attempt to prepare for a potential rebound in the sector. Data from Morningstar shows that the largest leveraged exchange-traded fund tracking chip stocks, Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares, attracted nearly $7 billion in net inflows in the first two weeks of July and August. This ETF offers three times leveraged exposure to the NYSE Semiconductor Index, which includes 30 U.S. chip companies. While the index is down more than 20% from its peak, the fund itself has plummeted 70% from its June peak to its subsequent low. During and after the chip stock crash, individual stock leveraged funds tracking chipmakers SK Hynix and SanDisk also attracted significant inflows. Goldman Sachs U.S. equity strategist Snyder stated: "Buying low and selling high has always been a popular strategy for many leveraged ETFs." However, Barclays head of derivatives research, Angupta, said: "We have noticed many times that the trend of funds flowing into leveraged ETFs is clearly buying on dips. But buying on dips can sometimes be like catching a falling knife."Canadian Prime Minister Carney: Trump “misjudged the situation” and escalated the tariff offensive, putting Canada and the United States “at war” on trade issues.Iranian President Peshizian: We are in the midst of a full-scale economic, military and security war.

"We have all seen the heinous images from Bucha and other regions just liberated by Russian soldiers. These crimes cannot be allowed to go unpunished, and they will not be "Ursula von der Leyen, the executive director of the European Union, said this.


"The four sanctions packages have been particularly painful on the Kremlin and have severely constrained its political and economic alternatives. We need to boost our pressure even further in light of recent events "She said this in a Twitter address (NYSE:TWTR).


She said that the idea included a four-billion-euro annual ban on coal imports from Russia and a complete prohibition on four major Russian banks, including the country's second-largest, VTB.


"We are developing new sanctions, including on oil imports, and we are considering some of the member states' proposals, such as levies or alternative payment channels such as an escrow account," von der Leyen added.


Additionally, the EU will prohibit Russian boats and Russian-operated vessels from entering EU ports, with exceptions for agricultural and food supplies, humanitarian relief, and energy.


In addition, the EU will restrict Russian and Belarusian road transport operators and will prohibit the sale to Russia of quantum computers, sophisticated semiconductors, sensitive machinery, and transportation equipment valued at ten billion euros per year.


Von der Leyen said that the 27-nation bloc would also suspend imports of Russian timber and cement, as well as seafood and alcoholic beverages worth a combined 5.5 billion euros per year.


It will bar Russian firms from participating in EU public procurement contracts and add further persons to a list of individuals whose EU assets will be frozen and who will be denied entry.
