Apple Intelligence fails to impress. | MarketTalk: What’s up today? | Swissquote

Show notes

Unimpressive was to investors what Apple revealed about its AI plans at its Worldwide Developer conference yesterday. Apple shares declined nearly 2% yesterday. The S&P500 and Nasdaq both eked out small gains, and energy stocks recovered as oil jumped to $78pb following news that the US imposed fresh sanctions on Yemeni Houthis.
Mood in French streets – and the markets - was chaotic yesterday; the CAC 40 sold off more than the European peers, the French 10-year yield spiked to the highest levels since November, the spread between the 10-year French and German yield spiked past 55bp and the EURUSD retreated to 1.0732, and is consolidating losses near 1.0770.
The Federal Reserve (Fed) starts its two-day meeting today and is widely expected to trim its rate cutting projections for this year due to sticky inflation and still-tight jobs market. The US dollar index spiked past its 50-DMA following last Friday’s surprisingly strong jobs data, and is consolidating gains above this level ahead of tomorrow’s most important CPI data and the Fed announcement. Provided the economic data and the inflation trends, there is a greater chance that we hear a hawkish Fed statement than the contrary.
