Nvidia announced another very strong quarter after the bell. They beat earnings expectations and forecasts but two flags have emerged: pressure on profit margins and high concentration of big customers.
Nvidia fell 2.5% in the afterhours trading. Failure to break a record post-earnings, and the rising worries regarding margins and competition could lead to a certain profit taking over the next few sessions.
As such, the S&P500 and Nasdaq futures are in the red this morning, and we could see a deeper retracement from the ATH levels with the lack of support from Nvidia earnings.
Elsewhere, the hawkish shift in...

Geopolitical tensions were on the headlines yesterday after Ukraine fired its first US missile to Russia after having received the green light from the White House following a two-year wait to do so. Gold and treasuries gained and crude oil jumped but remained short of testing the $70pb offers.
Today, sentiment is better and focus shifts to Nvidia earnings due today, after the closing bell.
The expectations are huge, the valuations are high as well. Nvidia could gain or lose around 8-10% in the aftermath of the earning and trigger a 1-2% rally or selloff in the S&P500.

The week kicked off on a bullish note, as the recovery in US treasuries, and the retreat in US yields help boost appetite in major US indices. Tesla gained on news that there could be an accelerated framework for fully self-driving cars, while Nvidia weakened on reports that Blackwell chips overheat.
In currencies, the US dollar weakened and gave room to other majors to breath, but the pullback could be short-lived.
In energy, US crude posted a 3% rally yesterday, but the bulls could find the $70pb offers hard to clear, as the amply global supply / weak global demand...

US retail sales and the inflation data came in higher than expected last week, and the Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell said that the US economy is strong enough and that there is no urge for rushing to rate cuts. The US yields and the dollar rallied, equities gave back gains.
This week, the economic calendar is light, and attention shifts to big US retailer and Nvidia earnings!
Listen to find out more!

Federal Reserve’s (Fed) Jerome Powell, who leads a team that started cutting the interest rates with a 50bp point in September by fear that the US jobs market would deteriorate quickly and added another layer of 25bp cut last week, said that ‘the economy is not sending any signals that [they] need to be in hurry to lower the rates’. Maybe, the plans have changed after Trump’s election on rising inflation risks due to pro-growth policies and tariffs.
US yields and the US dollar continue to push higher, major peers test important technical levels, crude oil remains under pressure, while...

US inflation came in parallel to expectations, confirming that headline inflation in the US stagnated near 0.3% level for a third month, the yearly figure rebounded from 2.4% to 2.6% as expected, while core inflation remained stuck at 3.3%. The short-end of the US yield curve eased on expectation of further Federal Reserve (Fed) cut in December, but the long-end is pushing higher on bets that inflation won’t ease to 2% if the Fed cuts defying the inflationary Trump policies.
The US dollar pushes higher, the US dollar is now in or near the overbought territory against most majors. Big...

The US yields pushed higher and the dollar rally gained further momentum yesterday, as investors continued to surf on the idea that Donald Trump’s pro-growth policies and tariffs would boost inflation in the US and limit the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) capacity to ease the monetary policy as much as previously anticipated. All eyes are on the US inflation data, today. October figures won’t tell much about the Trump effect on consumer prices, but the higher the numbers, the lower the December cut expectations. And the latter is supportive of the US dollar.
In energy, the barrel of US crude is...

Bitcoin added another 10% yesterday and came just shy of the $90K per coin, while Ethereum flirted with the $3400 mark. Tesla surged another 10%.
In the traditional currencies, the US dollar index is pushing higher along with the US yields on expectation that Trump’s pro-growth policies and tariffs would lead to higher inflation and softer-than-otherwise policy easing from the Federal Reserve. That’s in contrast with the worsening economic and political outlook for the Eurozone, with Germany preparing for a snap election on government’s inability to tackle the financial difficulties and revive growth. The euro tanked to 1.0628 against the...

Last week ended on a very positive note for the US equity markets. All major indices rallied, the S&P500 notched its best week in more than a year and toped the 6000 level for the first time in history. During the weekend, the Trump optimism continued to show in Bitcoin prices. The price of a coin spiked past the $81’000 level, and the next natural target on the grill is the $100’000 psychological level.
Elsewhere, worries mount: FTSE 100 and the European Stoxx 600 index both closed last week below the 200-DMA on worries about a heated international trade environment...
