[Report: Iran Reviewing Specific Proposals on Nuclear Issue, New Progress in US-Iran Talks] Five sources familiar with the matter said that Iran is reviewing a series of specific proposals on the nuclear issue put forward by the mediators, indicating progress in the Qatar-led US-Iran diplomatic mediation. In the past week, Qatar held two rounds of talks in Tehran, hosted a third round in Doha, and met with Iranian officials in Armenia. US Vice President Vance is also actively promoting negotiations, and both sides are reviewing the latest proposals in an attempt to bridge their differences. Rezaei, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, publicly stated that he would not negotiate on the nuclear issue until the US meets Iran's conditions, but sources said he has privately shown greater openness to discussing the nuclear issue. Iran's main demands include unfreezing assets, lifting oil sanctions, and the US maritime blockade of Iranian ports. The main point of contention on the nuclear issue is the disposal of its highly enriched uranium stockpile: Trump demands that Iran hand over its stockpile, while Iran refuses to ship the enriched uranium out of the country, having previously discussed dilution within its borders under the supervision of international inspectors. Meanwhile, the US and Israeli militaries have drawn up a list of targets for strikes against Iran, including energy and key economic facilities. Iran warned it would retaliate more severely if attacked again, and its top officials also discussed withdrawing from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons. Gulf states are concerned that a renewed conflict could damage their economies, and UAE President's foreign policy advisor, Gargash, called for a diplomatic solution to the crisis.

[Epic Sell-off in US Stocks: Top Five Billionaires Lose $150 Billion in Wealth in a Single Day; Musk Loses Nearly $100 Billion] US stocks suffered a massive sell-off on Thursday, with tech stocks being the hardest hit. During the session, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite Index saw maximum declines of 2.38%, 3.57%, and 5.35%, respectively, while the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index saw its decline widen to 11.6%. The AI hardware supply chain experienced a concentrated sell-off. Nvidia once plunged 9%, while TSMC, SpaceX, and Tesla once fell by as much as 11%. Forbes' real-time billionaires list shows that the US stock market decline significantly reduced the net worth of many global tech billionaires. Elon Musk's net worth decreased by $91.2 billion in a single day, a drop of 10.50%; Dell Technologies founder Michael Dell's decreased by $20.5 billion, a drop of 9.60%; Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's decreased by $15.1 billion, a drop of 8.70%; Oracle founder Larry Ellison's decreased by $13.2 billion, a drop of 8.05%; and Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg's decreased by $12.9 billion, a drop of 5.98%. The combined net worth of these five billionaires shrank by $152.9 billion in a single day. Musk alone accounted for nearly 60% of the combined loss. This wealth reduction primarily reflects the impact of declining stock prices on the valuations of the billionaires' holdings.

[New York Times: Thousands of US Air Force and Navy Personnel Standby for Military Operation Against Iran] According to the New York Times, although Trump has hinted that he is in no hurry to resume bombing operations, the possibility remains: in the past, some presidents, when suddenly placed in a "backup plan," have often resorted to military means, partly to demonstrate to the outside world that their power as supreme commander has not diminished. Bush accelerated his actions in Iraq after his historic defeat in the 2006 midterm elections. Some former US State Department diplomats, Pentagon officials, and military commanders who have long worked in the Middle East say that Trump may have backed himself into a corner. Pentagon officials and military commanders say that thousands of US Air Force and Navy personnel, deployed on more than a dozen ships and at bases throughout the Middle East and within the United States, are ready to resume large-scale military operations against Iran under Trump's orders. Officials revealed that the US and Israeli militaries have developed specific plans for a short but intensive military operation, likely targeting Iran's energy infrastructure, nuclear facilities, and missile and drone arsenals.

[Richmond Fed President: Rate Hikes Should Be Gradual] Richmond Fed President Barkin said on Thursday he supports a gradual pace of interest rate hikes, but did not signal how high rates ultimately need to rise. "If you think there's uncertainty in the world right now, and you think there will be new information to be gained in the meantime, then a gradual pace is reasonable," Barkin said at a conference in Charlotte, North Carolina. "I think that's still a reasonable pace for me." Barkin said inflation remains the biggest risk facing the Fed, but he hopes the Fed's decision to raise rates in September, and "any other actions we might choose to take in the future, will have some impact" on easing high price pressures. Barkin also said that rate hikes won't immediately affect oil prices, but over time, they could influence oil prices by cooling demand. Barkin stated, "I don't think the primary factor constraining or reducing AI investment will be interest rates. Investors have a lot of cash on their balance sheets. We are experiencing a potentially historic transformation, and people want to participate in it."
