Elon Musk's SpaceX ( SPCX ) has drawn more than $250B of investor demand for what stands to be the largest-ever IPO, dwarfing the $75B the firm is seeking to raise, according to Reuters . The deal's oversubscription rate is running at three and a half to four times the planned offering size, sources said, which bankers and investors say is the latest sign that demand is strong, as Reuters reported on Friday. Long-only funds have put in what one source described as sizable orders. Musk briefly joined some Zoom meetings with potential investors, the report said. The company remains in the midst of the marketing process. On Tuesday, SpaceX ( SPCX ) President Gwynne Shotwell and finance chief Bret Johnsen were expected to attend a lunch meeting at Morgan Stanley ( MS ) in midtown Manhattan with about 300 institutional investors and hosted by Morgan Stanley Co-President Dan Simkowitz, said a source familiar with the plans. Investor demand is still subject to change before the IPO prices, expected on Thursday afternoon. Subscription figures reflect indications of interest rather than final allocations, which will be set at pricing. The sources added that some large institutional investors tend to submit orders late in the IPO process, according to the report.

Palm oil stockpiles in Malaysia climbed at the fastest pace in five months as a sharp drop in exports overshadowed weaker production in the world’s second-largest grower. Inventories in May climbed 5.2% from a month earlier to 2.43 million tons, according to data released by the Malaysian Palm Oil Board on Wednesday. The gain was more than double the 2.2% rise forecast in a Bloomberg survey . The buildup reflects a sharp slowdown in overseas shipments as buyers flocked to discounted Indonesian cargoes following Jakarta’s overhaul of its key commodity exports. Malaysian exports fell about 14% to a one-year low of 1.11 million tons, compared with estimates for a 6.2% drop. While there were initial expectations that the new Indonesian regime — announced late last month — would divert demand to Malaysia, that has yet to materialize. Instead, buyers in key markets including India and China have been scooping up more attractively priced Indonesian supplies. Competition between the two neighboring countries may intensify in the coming months as Indonesian exporters rush to move cargoes before the state-controlled framework is fully implemented. The top producer, which supplies more than half the world’s palm oil, began a transition phase this month and is still ironing out key operational details, with a review due in three months. Companies can continue conducting transactions for now, which has created an incentive for refiners and exporters to push out supplies before tighter controls are enforced. Malaysia’s crude palm oil production , meanwhile, fell 7% to 1.52 million tons, according to MPOB, compared with estimates for a 4.9% decline. Imports slumped 42% to 43,816 tons, the data showed. Investors are also watching Malaysian cargo surveyor data for the first 10 days of June, due to be released later on Wednesday, for clues on how buyers are reacting to Indonesia’s new rules.

LewisTsePuiLung Wang Chuanfu, chairman and president of BYD Company ( BYDDF ), expressed confidence in the company and predicted it would become the world's No. 1 carmaker within five years, urging shareholders to remain patient despite a steep decline in its share price. BYD's ( BYDDF ) stock has fallen about 37% over the past year amid intense competition from local rivals including Geely ( GELYF ) and Xpeng ( XPEV ), while weaker domestic demand and shrinking profit margins have overshadowed the company's technological advances and overseas expansion. Speaking at BYD's 2025 annual shareholders' meeting in Shenzhen on Tuesday, Wang said the market broadly recognizes the automaker's growth prospects but argued that its current share price does not accurately reflect the company's true value. Addressing shareholders, Wang said management remains confident BYD will deliver stronger returns as it advances through key development milestones. BYD is seeking to offset slowing domestic momentum through overseas expansion, particularly in markets where trade barriers remain relatively low. Wang attributed the industry's first-quarter weakness to a demand pull-forward effect caused by China's reduction in NEV tax incentives, which encouraged consumers to advance purchases into late 2025 and left automakers grappling with weaker demand, intensified competition, and margin pressure at the start of 2026. He acknowledged that BYD's second-generation Blade Battery remains the company's primary growth bottleneck this year as the automaker ramps up production. "BYD will truly become the No. 1 automaker globally in terms of scale in five years," Wang said, citing the company's strong export growth and technological advancements. He added that overseas sales this year are expected to exceed the company's original target of 1.6M vehicles.

Mohamed Nadheem/iStock via Getty Images Iran reportedly targeted several Gulf countries after the U.S. launched attacks on the Middle Eastern nation earlier on Tuesday stateside. Jordan’s military said Wednesday local time that it had intercepted five Iranian missiles, according to state media , while Bahrain sounded alarms and Kuwait activated its air defenses to intercept “hostile aerial targets.” U.S. forces on Tuesday evening launched strikes against Iran “in response to yesterday’s downing of a U.S. Army Apache helicopter,” U.S. Central Command said. The “self-defense strikes” are “a proportional response to unjustified Iranian aggression,” Centcom said in an X post. Brent futures ( CO1:COM ) ticked up 0.2% to $91.62/bbl at press time, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude ( CL1:COM ) advanced 0.3% to $88.47. In a post later on Tuesday stateside, Centcom said that it had completed its military action, having hit Iranian air defense, ground control stations, and surveillance radar sites near the Strait of Hormuz.
