【2026.11.02 · Global Macro Market Briefing】
【Key Takeaways】
The convergence of oil tankers striking mines in the Strait of Hormuz and attacks on refineries, combined with OPEC+ freezing its production increase, has entrenched the crude oil risk premium. The energy shock is pushing up long-term U.S. Treasury discount rates and dampening rate-cut expectations. As AI capital spending shifts toward debt financing and buybacks weaken, growth tech valuations face a double squeeze from stagflation and peak earnings growth.
【Key Developments and Events in the Past 24 Hours】
• Iran says two oil tankers struck mines in the Strait of Hormuz; Tehran offers a two-day reopening plan: Reports say mines are disabling tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, including a supertanker. This raises the actual risk of every voyage—not just those involving Iranian targets—and could affect freight rates, war-risk insurance premiums, and the geopolitical premium on crude oil.
• U.S. and Korean stocks: Monday price outlook: Samsung Electronics is expected to open down about 2.5%, while most U.S. stocks are higher in premarket trading: BlockBeats reported on November 1, during the traditional market closure over Saturday and Sunday.
• OPEC+ statement: Decides to keep December crude oil production quotas unchanged: BlockBeats reported on November 1 that seven OPEC+ oil-producing countries held their monthly meeting today. At the meeting, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, Kuwait, Kazakhstan, Algeria, and Oman reaffirmed their commitment to market stability.
