Analysts have revealed that SpaceX and CoreWeave may be directly collaborating with ODM manufacturers, leading to a downgrade of Dell's investment rating.
According to Mars Finance, on June 25th, Jeff Pu, Head of Overseas Technology Research at GF Securities in Hong Kong, released a research summary downgrading Dell's stock rating from "Buy" to "Hold." The main reason is that Dell's stock price has surged by 200% since the last earnings report and by 200% since its rating was upgraded in October. The current valuation exceeds 20 times the expected EPS for fiscal year 2028, significantly limiting upside potential. Pu pointed out that SMCI has demonstrated stronger competitiveness in the AI server field and expects SMCI to win more NVL72 rack orders in SpaceX's 2027 GW-level (gigawatt-level) AI data center construction. Furthermore, the analyst specifically warned that the risks of direct ODM cooperation are increasing. Large AI infrastructure customers like SpaceX and CoreWeave are evaluating the possibility of partnering directly with ODM vendors such as Quanta, Hon Hai, and Pegatron. This could bypass branded server integrators like Dell, further squeezing the market share and profit margins of traditional manufacturers. Meanwhile, Dell's traditional PC business is also facing pressure. ODM shipments are weak, with shipments expected to decline sequentially in the next quarter, indicating a slowdown in overall growth momentum.

GPT-5.6, Gemini 3.5 Pro, and Grok 4.5 will all be released soon.
PANews reported on July 7th that, according to market sources, Gemini 3.5 Pro will be officially released on July 17th. Its front-end and visual code generation capabilities are said to have seen a significant leap forward, outperforming Anthropic's Fable 5 in multiple tests. However, it still lags behind its competitor in hardcore inference and complex engineering tasks. Furthermore, Google DeepMind has abandoned the original 2.5 Pro platform, opting instead for completely new pre-training on Gemini 3.5 Pro, thus delaying the release date from the original June 2026 to July 17th. Elon Musk previously announced that xAI's latest large model, Grok 4.5, has begun beta testing within SpaceX and Tesla.

Bitcoin bullish sentiment was supported by a decline in inflation expectations, with the market focusing on the July CPI data.
According to Mars Finance, the cryptocurrency market continued its stabilizing trend, with Bitcoin rising nearly 7% in the week ending July 5th, marking its strongest weekly performance since March. This surge was primarily driven by declining inflation expectations. The break-even inflation rate, a measure of market inflation expectations, has recently declined significantly, with the two-year indicator falling below 2%, approaching the Federal Reserve's inflation target level, and long-term inflation expectations also weakening. Simultaneously, WTI crude oil prices have fallen in tandem with inflation expectations, dropping to levels similar to those before the geopolitical conflict in February, prompting the market to reassess inflationary pressures, interest rate cut expectations, and the dollar's trajectory. Some analysts believe that a weaker dollar index (DXY) will further reduce resistance to Bitcoin's rise, as the two typically have a negative correlation. However, others caution that service sector inflation remains sticky, and declining oil prices do not necessarily indicate a reversal in the overall inflation trend; monetary policy may continue to maintain a "higher and longer" stance. The next key market juncture is the US June CPI data on July 14th, which could be a crucial catalyst for determining the inflation path and the direction of risk assets.
Crypto Market Preview This Week: Fed Meeting Minutes to be Released, SpaceX to be Included in Nasdaq 100 Index
According to BlockBeats, on July 6th, the crypto market will focus on the Federal Reserve meeting minutes, US economic data, and several crypto industry events this week. The macro environment and on-chain dynamics may jointly influence the price movements of digital assets. On the macro front, the Federal Reserve will release the minutes of its June FOMC meeting in the early hours of July 9th (Beijing time), with the market hoping to use this information to determine the future path of interest rates. In addition, the US ISM Services PMI, consumer inflation expectations, initial jobless claims, and China's June CPI data will also be released successively. On the industry front, SpaceX will be officially included in the Nasdaq 100 index on July 7th, becoming the fourth index component stock to hold Bitcoin, following Tesla, Strategy, and Mercado Libre. Data shows that SpaceX currently holds approximately 18,712 BTC, and its inclusion in the index is expected to benefit from the passive allocation demand of index funds. In addition, American Bitcoin (ABTC), a US mining company, will resume trading after completing a 1:15 reverse stock split to avoid delisting from Nasdaq; Berachain will complete its PoL Next upgrade on July 7. Regarding on-chain governance, ENS DAO, Frax DAO, Nexus Mutual DAO, and Arbitrum DAO will all conclude voting on multiple governance proposals this week. Regarding token unlocking, Hyperliquid (HYPE) will unlock 0.2% of its circulating supply on July 6, worth approximately $30.39 million; RAIN will unlock approximately 7.64% of its circulating supply on July 11, worth approximately $787 million; and PUMP will unlock approximately 29.12% of its circulating supply on July 12, worth approximately $130 million. Besides macroeconomic data, developments in the Russia-Ukraine situation and the continued weakening of the yen are also worth noting. Recently, Bitcoin has shown a strong negative correlation with the USD/JPY exchange rate, with the depreciation of the yen often accompanied by a rise in Bitcoin prices.
