Talk about a turn of events.
There is now a 25% chance that the Fed raises interest rates next month, at the July 29th meeting.
At the start of 2026, markets had been pricing-in 2 interest rate CUTS by the July meeting.
"Higher for longer" is officially back.
🔥🔥🔥👉#NIO ES8 has been on the market for nine months, delivered 120,000 vehicles, generated RMB 50 billion in revenue, and achieved RMB 12 billion in gross profit; it has ranked first in large SUV sales for six consecutive months! Now the ES9 is here—let's look forward to new records being set together!
🚨🚨BREAKING: President Trump says the deal with Iran is “now complete” and authorizes the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and removal of the U.S. naval blockade, after Pakistan’s prime minister said the U.S. and Iran had reached a peace deal to end military operations on all fronts. 🚨🚨
The Iran peace deal has now been announced by Pakistan on X, confirmed by US leaders and Iranian media on X, and backed by Qatar on X.
X has become the central venue to discuss and announce the most influential decisions in the world.
“These forecasts have been abysmal. My dots wouldn’t be perfect either, so I wouldn’t give them.”
Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh has spent 15 years arguing the central bank says too much. Wednesday is his first meeting. My story on the quiet revolution he wants:
"Industry Insight: A Visual Guide to the Core Supply Chain of NIO ES9"
The core takeaway is that the supply chain of the NIO ES9 is characterized by a tripartite structure of "full-stack self-development + capital alignment + regional clustering."
On one hand, the Shenji NX9031 chip, 900V platform, and electric drive system enhance the vehicle’s self-developed capabilities.
On the other hand, a high-density ecosystem of domestically produced core components has been formed by companies such as Innovusion, Sailendo, Likr Technology, and Fute Technology.
More critically, NIO Capital has made deep strategic investments in key companies like Hivi, Enwhi Technology, and Anwen Technology, upgrading the supply chain from a "cooperative supply" model to one of "capital collaboration."
In terms of industrial distribution, Hefei and the broader Anhui region serve as the core manufacturing and industrial hubs, complemented by a cross-regional collaborative network that includes the Yangtze River Delta (Shanghai, Jiangsu) and the electronics industry belt of the Pearl River Delta.
This three-tiered structure of "capital + technology + manufacturing" makes the ES9 not just a vehicle model, but a manifestation of NIO’s industrial organizational capabilities.
Regarding the widely rumored upcoming listing of Changxin Storage, there is currently no official confirmation on whether its memory products are being used in the ES9.
What can be confirmed, however, is that Changxin Storage is indeed being used in the new NIO Onvo L60.

🔥🔥🔥#NIO's new flagship ES9 began deliveries on May 28, with 3,108 units delivered in just three days! The average price exceeds 500,000 RMB! A new milestone!
Don’t be too pessimistic! NIO has now posted profits for two consecutive quarters, fundamentally reversing its long-running cash-burning phase. The ES9 has achieved unprecedented success in the premium segment (vehicles priced above RMB 500,000), with 10,000 units set to be delivered shortly. This is not only a major milestone for NIO but also a landmark achievement for the entire new-energy vehicle industry.
At the same time, the ES8 has led sales in the RMB 400,000+ SUV category for six straight months and is on track to complete its 120,000-unit delivery milestone very soon. All of this points to monthly deliveries beating expectations—and potentially surpassing the company’s own Q2 guidance.
Shorting the stock at this stage will simply provide extra fuel and momentum for the coming upward trend. Just sit back and watch the rally take off! 😎
You don’t see this very often.
The Nasdaq 100 is quite literally moving in a straight-line lower.
Now down -4.5%, on track for its biggest daily loss of 2026.
The U.S. economy added 172,000 jobs in May and the unemployment rate held at 4.3%.
There were large upward revisions to March and April, raising the three- and six-month hiring averages to 188,000 and 92,000, respectively.
Look what we just ran into on-site—the first batch of NIO's fifth-generation power-swap stations in Guangzhou.
Compared to the fourth-generation stations, the most noticeable shift is its larger size, adding an extra battery compartment that appears to be specifically for firefly battery packs.
Daniel Jin, head of the firefly brand, previously announced that the first batch of NIO's user-facing fifth-generation pioneer power-swap stations is scheduled to open in mid-to-late June.
