🚀 1. SpaceX SPCX IPO — Pricing Tonight After Market Close

SpaceX is set to price its historic $75 billion IPO on Nasdaq under ticker SPCX after market close today. The deal is 2x oversubscribed at $150B in demand, with pricing expected at $135/share at a $1.75 trillion valuation — the largest IPO in history. Retail subscription windows close today; tokenized SPCX shares go live on Bybit tomorrow (June 12). Alphabet (Google) will book a major accounting windfall as SpaceX’s valuation surges — a notable side-effect confirmed by Seeking Alpha. S&P Dow Jones Indices confirmed SpaceX will NOT be eligible for the S&P 500 for at least 12 months post-listing, requiring IPOs to trade one year before consideration.

💣 2. Iran Fires Fresh Missiles — Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain Targeted

Iran fired fresh ballistic missiles targeting US military facilities in Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain overnight, per InvestingLive’s Asia-Pacific wrap. The US military announced it had completed its “latest strikes on Iran” on June 11, raising brief hopes of peace negotiations. However, Iran said it would stand firm. Brent crude rose to $93.50/barrel (+0.43%) as the Strait of Hormuz vessel traffic remains at risk. US Energy Secretary Wright noted oil exports through the Strait are “rising despite ongoing disruptions.” EIA data showed US crude inventories fell by 7.228 million barrels last week — seventh consecutive weekly decline, beating expectations of a 4M barrel draw.

🥇 3. Gold at $4,082 — Down from $5,602 ATH but Holding

Gold trades at $4,082/oz (+0.27%) on June 11 — off the January 28 all-time high of $5,602. The decline of 13.4% over the past month is driven by a stronger US dollar and reduced safe-haven demand as US-Iran conflict shows signs of de-escalating. Georgia’s central bank bought $100M more gold as global reserve demand surges. GLD (Gold ETF) is up 7 consecutive sessions. Despite the pullback, gold is still +20.58% year-over-year, comfortably outperforming both equities and Bitcoin on a 12-month basis.

📈 4. Medline IPO Surges 28% on Debut — 10x Oversubscribed

Medical supplies giant Medline (MDLN) surged 28–31% on its first day of trading after its $6.26 billion IPO was 10x oversubscribed. The listing marks the second major IPO event this week after SpaceX, signalling a reopening of the IPO market after months of subdued activity. Seeking Alpha reports the IPO market is “expected to accelerate” on the back of Medline’s strong debut — potentially good news for other companies in the pipeline.

🤖 5. OpenAI Weighs Major Price Cuts Before IPO Push

The Wall Street Journal reports OpenAI is considering significant price reductions across its API and consumer products to compete with Anthropic ahead of its own anticipated IPO push. PBOC set USD/CNY at 6.8150 in today’s session. The AI pricing war is accelerating as capital flows into the sector: SpaceX’s xAI integration, Nvidia’s new PC chip (+6% on Monday), and Dell’s $120M acquisition of AI-data startup Dataloop all underline the theme.
