In the last full trading week of June, the S&amp;P 500 index reached an all-time high for the first time since February - optimism around a possible Fed rate cut and reduced concerns about duties contributed to the growth of quotations.

US labor market and Constellation report: what investors need to know this week

In June of this year, Iran's nuclear program suddenly turned from a subject of diplomatic disputes and economic sanctions into a target of missile strikes. On June 13, Israel attacked key Iranian nuclear facilities, and on the night of June 22, the United States joined the operation. The airstrikes were the first time Iran's nuclear infrastructure has been hit. Maxim Starchak, a researcher at the Center for International and Defense Policy at Queens University, examined whether the Islamic Republic's nuclear program has been eliminated.

In June, the French Senate voted in favor of <a href="https://www.thefashionlaw.com/france-focuses-on-shein-temu-in-revised-anti-fast-fashion-legislation/">a bill</a> to restrict advertising and impose environmental fees on ultra-fast fashion companies. The main targets are Chinese giants Temu and Shein. What does this mean for the ultra-fast fashion market, investors, and what does it have to do with zoomers?

"The atomic bomb hanging beneath the fuselage of the plane...came off the fighter-bomber that was disintegrating in mid-air and continued its flight eastward. It fell far from the place where the burning remains of the plane had crashed, fifty meters from the house of the Druze farmer... And now the Israelis were faced with a problem that was impossible to solve, even for those of them with a rich imagination. The bomb was somewhere in Syrian territory - but where exactly? Which of the four airplanes was carrying it? Where did it crash? The Israelis could not ask the Syrians to search for it. And what to say to the Americans, from whom they managed with considerable dexterity to acquire "special nuclear material", a fact that both sides categorically denied? Thus, the atomic bomb lay buried two meters into the ground near the house of a farmer who, unaware of its existence, continued to cultivate his field, which was strewn with stones here and there.

SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son said he intends to make the company the leading platform for "artificial superintelligence". The U.S. and China signed a trade agreement that includes supplies of rare earth metals. The US Treasury Department also scrapped the "retaliatory tax" (Section 899 of Donald Trump's budget bill), which excludes US companies from international digital taxes in exchange for concessions from G7 countries. On these and other topics - in our review of key events for the morning of June 27.

This weekend, US President Donald Trump's address to the nation resembled the plot of a Hollywood blockbuster. He announced the successful bombing of three Iranian nuclear facilities, mentioning that the country must make peace or "new attacks" will follow. Trump loves spectacular phrases and Hollywood samples, but this speech may go down in history as evidence of the turn of international relations to the new rules of the world order.

After U.S. strikes over the weekend, the market is now in wait-and-see mode. Meanwhile, a biotech got a boost from an initiation of coverage last week that made it the biggest gainer, while a solar power stock retreated the most amid negative regulatory developments. This is what happened in small caps last week and what to expect in the week ahead.
