Event Background: Recently, US President Trump singled out Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell, and BP, criticizing major oil companies for gasoline prices that "should be much lower at gas stations." He accused them of not lowering gasoline prices in line with the recent drop in crude oil prices, suggesting they are "hurting" consumers. Trump has ordered the Department of Justice to "immediately" investigate this matter.Chevron Response: Chevron Chief Financial Officer Bonner told CNBC on Thursday that energy giants are "doing everything possible" to address price concerns and have great sympathy for consumers. However, she explained that the transmission of crude oil prices to gas stations takes time, and as the situation in the Middle East continues to normalize, gasoline prices are expected to gradually decline. She also pointed out that Chevron's production this year will increase by 7% to 10%, and the company will continue to optimize its operating leverage during the conflict.

BlockBeats News, June 26th. In July of last year, the U.S. government announced a tariff plan regarding copper. Previously, only semi-finished copper products were subject to a 50% tariff, while refined copper was temporarily exempt. However, there are plans to gradually impose tariffs on refined copper starting from 2027. The final decision on whether this plan will be implemented will be made by the end of June. The U.S. Department of Commerce is required to submit a report on the "232 Tariff" by June 30th and based on this report, make a final decision. As the deadline of June 30th for the release of the U.S. "232 Tariff" investigation report approaches, the global market for metals related to AI computing power will experience a new round of volatility. International investment banks such as Goldman Sachs have analyzed that if the U.S. implements a new round of tariff policies targeting copper, U.S. buyers may engage in large-scale hoarding. Currently, COMEX copper inventories in the U.S. have surpassed 650,000 tons, reaching a historical high. At the same time, in the international market, small metals deeply linked to the AI computing power industry, such as tungsten, tin, tantalum, and indium, may experience further supply shortages exacerbating the situation.
