On June 19, Minister of Commerce Wang Wentao met with Canadian Minister of Industry Jolly, Prime Ministers Secretary to Parliament Blois, and representatives from the business community in Beijing on June 18. The two sides exchanged in-depth views on China-Canada economic and trade relations, the development of Canadian-invested enterprises in China, and key economic and trade concerns. Wang Wentao stated that both sides should fully leverage the China-Canada Joint Economic and Trade Commission mechanism as the main channel for economic and trade cooperation, consolidate the momentum of cooperation in traditional industries, vigorously expand cooperation in emerging and future industries, and strengthen the bonds of common interests. China has always valued the opinions of foreign investors and is willing to work with Canada to extend the list of cooperation and shorten the list of issues through candid dialogue and pragmatic cooperation, thereby promoting the healthy, stable, and sustainable development of China-Canada economic and trade relations.Market news: Early users of Anthropic Mythos retain access despite the U.S. governments restrictions.Abu Dhabi National Oil Company: Crude oil can be supplied through loading schedules starting April 27.June 19th - Investinglive analyst Eamonn Sheridan stated that market movements, including those of oil and the US dollar, shifted due to the cancellation of Vances trip, revealing previous market expectations: the early setbacks caused by Israel have led the market to reassess the process.

If the Geneva talks fail to convene in time, the risk premium flowing out of crude oil after the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz will face partial reconstruction. The current situation is clear: neither side will travel to Switzerland—at least not yet—and the significant differences in their respective reasons indicate that the root of the friction goes far beyond the logistical issues mentioned by the White House.June 19th - Data shows that foreign exchange traders, including hedge funds, are buying options in large quantities, betting on a further strengthening of the US dollar following hawkish signals from the Federal Reserve this week, which reinforced expectations of a US interest rate hike. According to traders, leveraged funds began buying dollar call options on Wednesday, with these options appreciating in value if the dollar strengthens. This demand continued into Thursday as investors digested new Federal Reserve Chairman Warshs anti-inflationary remarks. Tobias Jungmann, head of FX options for the Americas at Bank of America, said, "Were seeing massive buying of dollar call options, primarily in G-10 currencies. Given the current low implied volatility, establishing long dollar positions through options looks very attractive." James Swindell, senior FX options trader at Barclays in London, said, "Were seeing significant demand across the board for dollar call options, particularly in EUR/USD and GBP/USD."
