BlockBeats News, June 22, Fitch Ratings has assigned a 'BBB+' rating to the senior unsecured bonds proposed by SpaceX (SPCX.O). SpaceX announced today its inaugural investment-grade bond offering, marking the beginning of a massive fundraising effort to support its artificial intelligence vision following its record-breaking $75 billion IPO. According to SpaceX's filing, it has launched its inaugural senior unsecured notes issuance, "subject to market conditions and other factors." The filing elaborated that such notes will constitute SpaceX's unsecured indebtedness ranking equally with all existing and future unsubordinated debt, liabilities, and other obligations. SpaceX sought to raise at least $20 billion through this offering last week. The proceeds will be used to repay a roughly equivalent-size interim bridging loan, which represents the vast majority of SpaceX's $29.1 billion long-term debt.

On the news front, Strategy increased its holdings by 520 Bitcoin—worth approximately 35 million USD—over the past week, bringing its Bitcoin reserves to 847,363.

Overall, the earlier surge in spot egg prices was driven by pre-Dragon Boat Festival stocking. After the festival, demand quickly subsided, coupled with the rainy season in southern regions suppressing circulation and procurement. Spot prices fell rapidly, egg futures plummeted in tandem, and the earlier gains in both spot and futures markets were almost entirely wiped out. Currently, inventories are accumulating rapidly, with significant increases seen in both the production and distribution sectors, now above the levels of the same period last year. A short-term supply surplus is emerging, and spot egg prices still have room for further adjustment. However, with the end of the rainy season in July and the onset of pre-Mid-Autumn Festival stocking in September, there remains some demand for a rebound in spot egg prices. In the near term, it is prudent to be cautious about further shorting, and continued attention should be paid to inventory and flock numbers in production regions. It is also noteworthy that chicks reared during the concentrated replenishment in the second quarter will gradually begin laying at the end of the fourth quarter, possibly leading to a rising supply. Far-term supply pressures should not be overlooked.
