BlockBeats reported on June 17 that Serenity responded to AAOI’s bearish outlook, but still maintained strong confidence in the bulls. AI infrastructure has a structural supply-and-demand gap: capacity for high-end lasers and optical modules is tight, cloud providers’ demand for high-speed optical interconnects is rising, and NVDA’s leading compute ecosystem is constrained. The U.S. has an advantage in module capacity for 800G/1.6T, but it remains tight; AAOI’s ARR in 2027 could be $560 million, yet long-term potential has not been fully reflected in market capitalization. In the short term, there are risks from ATM and sentiment volatility, but overall, optimism remains on the optical interconnect bottleneck driving the expansion of AI computing power.

With energy-related risks declining and oil prices falling to help ease inflationary pressure, market expectations for the Federal Reserve’s path have improved.
AI and semiconductors remain the core drivers; after geopolitical risks fade, cyclicals are expected to rebound and play catch-up, as capital may rotate from defensive assets into risk assets.
Downside risks include volatility tied to the mid-term elections and tighter AI regulation.
Overall, US equities are in a phase of sentiment repair and the continuation of a structural uptrend, but the risk of rising volatility is building up.

Reuters reports that the United States is suspected of establishing an unconventional ship-to-ship (STS) crude oil transfer network amid tensions in the Strait of Hormuz to maintain Gulf exports.
Since May 2026, approximately 116 oil tankers have participated, with a total of about 90 million barrels, mainly off the coast of Fujairah in the UAE and around the port of Sohar in Oman.
Some ships turn off AIS and evade tracking in sensitive waters, exhibiting gray shipping characteristics.
The U.S. claims that the system is mainly for coordination and monitoring, and does not involve loading or unloading.
This system is seen as an emergency supplement, far below pre-war daily throughput, and not a long-term solution.

A memorandum to pause the Iran-U.S. conflict is about to be signed. Multiple Iranian oil tankers have proactively turned on tracking and departed the port, signaling that the blockade related to the Strait of Hormuz may be gradually lifted. The agreement may also provide an advance exemption from Iran oil sanctions; after it is signed, Iran can sell its oil directly to external buyers. At present, about 68 million barrels of crude oil are stranded at sea, and once the export channel opens, it will ease global supply and pressure oil prices.
