Sharp mood swings are not a good sign | MarketTalk: What’s up today?
Markets are on edge as December Fed rate-cut expectations climb past 80%, and every word from the central bank now moves markets. Short-term yields are jittery, risk assets are swinging, and investors are balancing hope with caution. The backdrop is anything but simple: a softening jobs market, inflation still above target, and lingering uncertainty from tariffs. Data is slowly returning after the long government shutdown, but it only paints part of the picture — what the Fed signals could matter more than what the numbers show. Traders...

Fragile optimism

Fragile optimism

10m 2s

Futures are nudging higher this morning as Fed expectations improve slightly, after one official suggested a near-term rate cut could be on the table. But it’s far from guaranteed. Nvidia’s earnings caused a stir — rising inventories and deferred payments signal possible stress, and a chain reaction in tech isn’t out of the question.
Meanwhile, Alibaba jumped 5% after Qwen 3 attracted over 10 million followers — China’s AI excitement continues. Kospi made a small recovery attempt, though gains were largely offset by heavy selling.
In the US, the 2-year yield dropped on Friday and bets on a December rate...

From euphoria to drama: what happened yesterday?

From euphoria to drama: what happened yesterday?

In just a few hours, the market swung from euphoria to outright drama. Nvidia’s stellar results gave sentiment a quick boost, but it didn’t last long — by the US open, the mood soured as questions about Nvidia’s books, AI fatigue and lingering credit concerns hit the tape. Oracle’s CDS spike, mounting chip inventories, rapidly cycling deferred revenue and a crypto sell-off all fueled a sharp risk-off move, sending the Nasdaq from +2% to deep in the red. Mixed US jobs data added to the uncertainty, while climbing Japanese yields reignited fears about repatriation of the roughly $3.4 trillion Japanese...

From Nvidia to BLS – not quite the same enthusiasm

From Nvidia to BLS – not quite the same enthusiasm

10m 6s

Nvidia just unleashed another blockbuster quarter, blowing past revenue forecasts by roughly $2bn and lifting data-centre income well beyond the $50bn threshold. Add Jensen Huang’s remark that Blackwell demand is “off the charts” and a fresh revenue outlook of $65bn, and you have all the ingredients for a renewed surge in market confidence and a lift across tech benchmarks.

Yet the more pressing issue is whether this momentum can actually last. Away from Nvidia’s glow, the macro landscape is getting heavier. The unexpected postponement of the October jobs figures, lingering uncertainty around October CPI, shrinking odds of a Fed cut,...

Happy Nvidia Earnings Day!

Happy Nvidia Earnings Day!

9m 46s

Tonight’s the night, ladies and gentlemen. Nvidia — the world’s biggest company — is about to lift the curtain on earnings, and my crystal ball is humming. Will they smash that $55 billion revenue expectation and drop another 73%-gross-margin mic on the table? Probably. Will Jensen Huang appear in a leather jacket and casually remind us that China doesn’t even matter to his forecast anymore? Also likely.
But here’s the real suspense: how will markets react? While AI deals were flying a month ago fueling enthusiasm and market euphoria, today everyone’s whispering about rising debt. Not helping, fading expectations of...

Markets are wobbling as slowing global growth, rising debt, and fading AI enthusiasm collide. Japan just posted its first GDP contraction in over a year, China’s property crisis refuses to fade, and European growth remains sluggish. Even Switzerland isn’t spared. Meanwhile, the bullish catalysts that powered markets all year — AI euphoria, massive government spending, and hopes of a dovish Fed — are losing steam. Japan’s huge $110bn stimulus barely moved the Nikkei, Fed cut expectations are evaporating, and AI stocks are under pressure despite big promises.
Now all eyes are on Nvidia. The chipmaker reports Q3 earnings tomorrow, and...

Markets are on edge. Last week, dip-buyers pushed the S&P500 above its 50-DMA, while Nasdaq futures are hoping Nvidia will deliver results strong enough to scare the bears. Jensen Huang sounds so confident, it’s almost theatrical. Meanwhile, Fed cut expectations have softened, but Thursday’s jobs data could swing sentiment back toward dovish territory—or not.
Add in US and European data, plus corporate earnings from Nvidia, Alibaba, Baidu, and major retailers, and investors have plenty to chew on. Will bulls charge, or will caution dominate? One thing’s clear: markets are volatile and the week could be a make or break one...

Is it the point when the market cracks, or bulls push even harder?

Michael Burry is pulling the plug on his funds after years spent arguing that valuations had drifted far beyond reason. And his departure lands at a tense moment: tech is finally wobbling, short bets are climbing and investors are waking up to the fact that the Fed will make its December call without the full set of data. Yields look poised to climb, nerves are tightening and markets that once floated on AI-driven optimism suddenly feel like they’re bracing for something heavier.
The dollar is sliding even as expectations stay hawkish, the yen is stuck defending the 155 line, and...

Optimism extends to a fourth session as the US government shutdown ends and AI news drives gains. AMD jumped 9% after forecasting accelerating sales growth, while Cisco beat estimates and raised guidance, highlighting AI-driven hardware and infrastructure demand. Yet, the broader question remains: when will corporate AI spending translate into end-user revenue? Is this a bubble? What about the Fed? Will it cut rates, will it not, will the data come in time for the December meeting?
