Geopolitical tensions, credit risks and earnings: a hectic mix

Geopolitical tensions, credit risks and earnings: a hectic mix

13m 14s

Trade tensions, earnings and another subprime auto lender collapse. From Tesla’s costly Trump-era duties to Netflix’s disappointment and new US sanctions on Russian oil giants, markets are wrestling with mixed signals. AI optimism still drives risk appetite, but under the surface, cracks are widening: weak jobs data, looming government shutdown and fading consumer credit strength. Will the Fed optimism and AI hype fight back the rest?

Gold drops: concern or healthy pause?

Gold drops: concern or healthy pause?

13m 5s

Gold and silver bulls took their profits and ran, triggering the sharpest pullback across precious metals in months. Gold dropped over 5% and silver nearly 7% before dip buyers returned, but questions remain: is this just a breather—or the start of something bigger? The selloff was fueled by easing US–China trade tensions, a rebound in the US dollar and overbought speculative positioning, but the broader story remains... the same!
Meanwhile, oil prices are staging a modest recovery, US yields slipped below 4% and investors are bracing for the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) much-anticipated rate cut next week by closing short positions....

Gold rises, but so does its volatility

Gold rises, but so does its volatility

13m 27s

Markets kicked off the week with a bang, Global indices rallied as investors brushed off trade war fears, shutdown risks and credit jitters. In the US, tech stocks led gains — even Amazon, despite its massive AWS outage, climbed higher. Apple hit fresh record highs on stronger-than-expected iPhone 17 sales, while in Europe, defense and chip stocks helped lift the Stoxx 600 near an all-time high. But amid the optimism, gold quietly flashed a warning: its price keeps rising… and so does its volatility. That’s not a combo you see every day. Could this be a sign of pressure building...

Sentiment improves into next US-China talks, tech leads rally

13m 16s

Markets are back with a bang this Monday on expectations that the trade tensions between the US and China will ease. Meanwhile, Chinese data show resilience on the surface but weakness underneath. In tech, TSMC and ASML shined last week as Alibaba kicks off the week with a 5% rally. And funnily, the Big Tech was not responsible for last week’s volatility… banks and credit worries were, but the latter seem to be easing as well this morning, phew!
As the Fed prepares for a likely rate cut and the US government stays shut, investors brace for another wild earnings...

10m 30s

The Federal Reserve moves markets like no other institution. From mortgage rates to gold and Bitcoin, every asset feels the ripple of Fed decisions. But here’s the twist — it’s not just what the Fed does, it’s what markets expect it to do next that really drives prices. In this episode, we break down how traders track those expectations through the CME FedWatch Tool, how to read the Fed’s “dot plot,” and why forward guidance often moves markets more than actual rate changes.
Discover how to interpret Fed probabilities, spot market reactions and understand what “don’t fight the Fed” truly...
