1、Crypto Market Highlights

1）Bitcoin Still Capped by Hikes and Oil, Hovering Near $78,500

Bitcoin remains around $78,500–$79,000, with Ethereum near $2,480–$2,500. Brent back above $100 lifted inflation expectations, the 10-year yield rose to about 4.85%, and hike odds stayed elevated, limiting the slope of any breakout in majors. Spot bitcoin ETFs still recorded net inflows last week, but price has already given back gains ahead of those flows. Near-term direction hinges on rates and CPI pricing.

2）VVV Fades After a Spike, Up About 34% This Week as AI + Privacy Heats Up
Venice Token (VVV) briefly broke $29 this week and led the AI + privacy group. The spark was a public dispute over mathematical research: after a user fed a draft into a closed-source coding assistant, questions arose over whether session data was used for training. Markets are treating private inference as a new necessity. Venice is capturing that narrative with anonymity, zero retention, and TEE design. Annualized revenue rose from about $14 million earlier this year to more than $100 million in August, with API consumption used to buy back and burn VVV. Capital is starting to re-rate AI inference tokens through a privacy-asset lens.

3）Quantum-Security Sector Leads; ZEC, CKB, and STRK Stand Out
CoinMarketCap’s quantum-resistance category strengthened, with ZEC, CKB, and STRK among the top gainers. The Ethereum Foundation’s emphasis on quantum readiness, together with rising demand for privacy and censorship-resistant transactions, rotated capital into networks with anti-quantum or shielded-transaction design. Sector elasticity is higher than that of majors, and another rate shock could quickly amplify volatility.

2、Market Highlights

1）Apple (AAPL) Unveils iPhone Duo at $1,999; Stock Reaction Remains Muted
Apple (AAPL) yesterday launched its first foldable iPhone Duo, featuring an approximately 7.6-inch inner display when unfolded and a 5.4-inch outer display when folded, with the 256GB model starting at $1,999. Pre-orders begin on October 16 ET and availability starts on October 23. The iPhone 18 Pro starts at $1,199 and the Pro Max at $1,299, both up $100, with shipments beginning on September 18. New CEO John Ternus hosted his first fall product event. The stock closed down about 0.3% at $318.14. Although the price increase came in below some Street expectations of $250–$500, investors remain cautious on foldable-device yields, early supply conditions, and margin implications. Attention is now shifting to pre-order data, inventory build, and supply-chain profit distribution.

2）Energy Continues to Lead, with Exxon Mobil and Chevron Advancing
The S&P energy sector rose about 1.1% yesterday, making it one of the few sectors to finish higher. Exxon Mobil (XOM) gained about 2.2% and Chevron (CVX) rose about 1.9%. Brent reclaimed $100 and WTI traded near $95, as constrained Hormuz transit pushed the supply premium higher. Rising oil prices are also reinforcing sticky-inflation expectations and acting as a hedge against long-duration technology exposure.

3）10-Year Yield Rises to About 4.85% as Long-Bond Buyback Size Misses Expectations
The U.S. Treasury announced a buyback of up to $6 billion in 10- to 20-year bonds, below some traders’ expectations, sending the 10-year yield up to about 4.85%, its highest level since November 2023. Rising real yields continued to compress growth valuations and served as a key macro anchor behind the third straight down day for the major indexes.

Futures: SPY

4）Small Caps Fall Harder; Russell 2000 Drops About 1.3%
The Russell 2000 fell about 1.3% to 2,921 on September 9 ET, lagging large caps. Higher hike odds and rising funding costs tend to hit externally financed small caps more directly. IWM remains a high-beta gauge for the market’s rates path.

3、Today’s Preview

1）Adobe (ADBE) — September 10 After the Close
Consensus expects revenue of about $6.69 billion and adjusted EPS of about $6.08, representing year-over-year growth of roughly 12% and 15%, respectively. Investors will focus on AI-related recurring revenue, Creative Cloud subscriptions, organic growth trends, and management commentary on competitive pressure. Options imply about 7% post-earnings volatility.

2）Oracle (ORCL) — September 10 After the Close
Consensus expects revenue of about $19.13 billion and adjusted EPS of about $1.74, with revenue projected to rise roughly 28% year over year. Investors will focus on OCI growth, remaining performance obligations, and capital expenditure trends. Options imply about 10% post-earnings volatility.
Watchlist: ORCL
Spot: ORCL
Futures: ORCL

3）PPI — September 11 ET
With oil prices back above $100, market expectations broadly point to a 0.4% month-over-month rise in PPI and a 5.2%–5.3% year-over-year increase. If the data comes in materially above expectations, the probability of a 25 bp Fed hike in September, currently around 54%, could rise further. Higher rate-pricing pressure would likely continue to weigh on QQQ, SPY, and long-duration technology stocks in the near term.
