Posted : June 30, 2025

Market Movement from 23rd Jun 2025 to 28th Jun 2025.

  • In New York futures, July has expired and nearly all open interest and options have shifted to the lead month, December. There is a significant volume of on-call purchases in December 2025. With the end of the Israel-Iran conflict, market sentiment has turned positive. Additionally, the rollover into the next futures contract has provided liquidity, pushing NY December futures close to the psychological 70-cent mark. NY December closed with a week-on-week gain of 262 points, indicating strong buying across the board.
