Odd optimism around the Fed – and what’s next...

Odd optimism around the Fed – and what’s next...

10m 27s

The Fed cut rates by 25 bp, but rising dissent and political dynamics are creating uncertainty at the heart of the FOMC. Markets initially cheered, but Oracle’s earnings highlighted heavy AI spending and debt concerns, sending stocks lower.
All eyes now turn to Broadcom’s Q4 FY2025 results, expected to show strong growth in EPS and revenue, driven by AI chips and networking demand, including Google’s TPUs. Can Broadcom keep the tech rally alive, or is caution about to take center stage?

What happens the day after the Fed cuts?

What happens the day after the Fed cuts?

10m 11s

The Federal Reserve is expected to deliver a widely anticipated 25bp rate cut today — but the real story is what comes next. Markets may know the headline move, but they have no clarity on how many cuts the Fed sees in 2025, how the dot plot will shift, or whether policymakers are willing to lean dovish in a world where inflation risks refuse to fade.
Global central banks are turning hawkish, yields are pushing higher, and investors are bracing for a message that could make or break sentiment into year-end. Will the Fed validate hopes of easier policy, or...

Hollywood Backstages

The fight for Warner Bros. is heating up. Netflix has bid for the studio’s content and streaming assets, while Paramount has countered with an offer for the full company. The outcome could reshape the streaming landscape, determining who controls some of Hollywood’s most valuable franchises.
Meanwhile, IBM is making strategic moves in the AI space, acquiring data-streaming company Confluent to strengthen its software and real-time analytics capabilities, enhancing AI offerings across industries.
Nvidia also made headlines, receiving approval to sell its H200 chips in China, a step that could boost its AI hardware sales, though challenges remain with domestic competitors...

Fed cut is almost certain. The oulook is not.

10m 54s

We are entering a key week for markets, with central bank decisions and major earnings reports set to shape investor sentiment. Oracle and Broadcom will release earnings on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, providing insights into the ongoing impact of AI adoption and cloud expansion. The Fed is widely expected to deliver a 25bp rate cut on Wednesday, while the RBA, BoC, and SNB are likely to maintain their policy rates.
However, there is no guarantee that the Fed’s move will sustain year-end optimism. Any hawkish commentary or signals of caution could quickly temper investor enthusiasm and limit market gains. With...

Upbeat, ignoring risks

Upbeat, ignoring risks

9m 56s

This week’s market dynamics highlight a striking disconnect: the S&P 500 flirts with all-time highs while underlying economic indicators signal slowing growth, job losses, and rising debt nearing $40 trillion. The US dollar tests critical technical support, Japanese yields climb toward 1.95%, and the Fed’s upcoming policy moves remain under close scrutiny. Tech and AI investments continue to mask deeper macroeconomic vulnerabilities, with AI now contributing significantly to US GDP growth.
In Asia, Moore Threads Technology stole the spotlight with a near 500% surge on its Shanghai debut, reflecting both investor enthusiasm and China’s push for a homegrown AI-GPU ecosystem....

Cheerful bad news

Cheerful bad news

10m 40s

The US economy lost 32’000 jobs in November — the fourth decline in six months. Small businesses bore the brunt, shedding 120,000 positions, outweighing gains in bigger firms. The 2-year Treasury yield fell below 3.50%, the probability of a December 25bp Fed cut jumped to 90% and the S&P 500 hovered near all-time highs. Because, of course, job losses are just another reason to cheer the dovish Fed expectations.
Japan, on the other hand, decided to show off. A 30-year government bond sale drew the strongest demand since 2019, with yields near 3.40%, sending the Nikkei up 2% — a...

Not with rising JGB yields!

Not with rising JGB yields!

10m 32s

Bitcoin, USDJPY, JGBs — these three are setting the tone for risk appetite this week. Japanese yields are climbing, the yen is stirring, and the era of easy liquidity from Japan may be ending. How far can global markets really go when the ceiling is set in Tokyo?
Nvidia tried to push higher yesterday, but Amazon’s entry into AI hardware with its Trainium 3 chip reminded everyone that the AI game isn’t free. Even tech giants built on “capital-light” models are seeing margins tested as chips and data centers eat into cash flow.
Markets are watching the BoJ, the Fed,...

Cautious market Rebound amid volatility in bonds, crypto

10m 7s

Markets rebounded cautiously today after a volatile start to the month. Japanese government bond yields surged to multi-decade highs following hints from BoJ Governor Ueda of a potential rate hike, triggering declines in equities and Bitcoin, while gold and silver advanced. The 10-year JGB auction performed well, stabilizing the bond market, while US 10-year yields remain near 4% and the USDJPY is recovering.
Bitcoin is testing key support near $83K, and US economic data indicate ongoing weakness, with factory activity and orders contracting and employment softening. Holiday retail sales rose largely due to inflation. In technology, Nvidia’s $2bn investment in...
