- Crude oil jumps on OPEC, Korean tech... on NvidiaMarkets ended last week with slowing momentum after the Fed cast doubt on a December cut and Big Tech’s earnings failed to lift sentiment. Still, corporate results remain solid, with S&P 500 profits up more than 10% year-on-year and energy stocks finding support after Exxon and Chevron’s upbeat reports. Oil also got a boost after OPEC announced it will pause additional supply between January and March. Meanwhile, AI optimism is fueling tech gains at the start of the week as investors turn their focus to fresh earnings from Palantir, AMD, Qualcomm, McDonald’s, and Shopify — and a potentially interesting BoE meeting later this week.Listen to find out more!Ipek Ozkardeskaya has begun her financial career in 2010 in the structured products desk of the Swiss Banque Cantonale Vaudoise.

Nasdaq slipped, yet Amazon’s AWS growth stole the spotlight, relieving worries and hinting the week could end on a more positive note. Energy markets will also be in focus today as Exxon Mobil and Chevron are expected to report modest year-on-year declines amid softer crude and gas prices. WTI hovers near $60 a barrel, the US dollar continues to recover, and precious metals face short-term pullbacks while long-term demand remains supported by soaring global debt and central bank gold buying. Volatility across tech, energy, FX and commodities keeps investors alert, with Amazon today providing a much needed boost to market sentiment.Listen to find out more!Ipek Ozkardeskaya has begun her financial career in 2010 in the structured products desk of the Swiss Banque Cantonale Vaudoise.

- Fed dampens mood, Microsoft & Meta underwhelmThree central bank decisions, a Trump–Xi handshake, and a flood of Big Tech earnings — all in less than 24 hours! The Fed cut rates but Powell poured cold water on December cut hopes, sending yields surging and the dollar rising. Nvidia hit an eye-watering $5 trillion valuation, Microsoft and Meta stumbled on AI spending warning. Meanwhile, SK Hynix and Google kept the chip and cloud dreams alive.

- Tech leads rally on more AI deals ahead of Fed decisionWho needs data when Jensen Huang is out dropping billion-dollar deals? From Nokia to Palantir, Uber and even the U.S. Department of Energy, Nvidia’s latest partnerships are lighting up markets and sending Nokia shares to their highest level in 15 years. With $500 billion in chip orders reportedly booked and new collaborations with Samsung and Hyundai on the way, Huang insists there’s no bubble here. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq hit fresh records, Microsoft gained 2% on OpenAI news — and Big Tech earnings are next.Meanwhile, uranium’s rally mirrors AI’s hunger for power, and traders are bracing for the Federal Reserve’s next move.

- Not a bubble until it bursts!Global markets are on fire! Major indices hit fresh all-time highs as optimism over new US trade deals sends risk appetite soaring. Trump’s talks with Japan’s new Prime Minister Takaichi sparked a breakthrough on critical minerals, while hopes of a US-China deal keep fueling the rally. The Federal Reserve (Fed) and the Bank of Canada (BoC) are expected to cut rates this week — and if the Fed sweetens the move by ending QT, equity bulls may have even more room to run. Sector-wise, tech and AI stocks continue to dominate: Qualcomm jumps double digits after unveiling new AI chips, while Nvidia and AMD rise on hopes that there’s enough chip demand for everyone.

- Busy week starts on bullish noteGlobal markets kick off the week in high spirits as softer-than-expected US inflation revives Fed cut hopes and optimism builds around a possible US–China trade breakthrough. The S&P 500 hit a new record, earnings are coming in strong, and all eyes now turn to Big Tech. Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, Apple and Amazon are set to report — and their results could decide whether the rally keeps running. Meanwhile, Intel’s rebound story raises questions about politics versus profitability (https://www.cnbc.com/video/2025/10/24/ozkardeskaya-the-real-potential-lies-in-ai-not-just-improving-their-cpu-business.html), European and Japanese stocks break new records.

- Finally, data!Markets are bracing for fresh US inflation numbers after weeks of shutdown-induced data drought. But that’s not all — Trump and Xi are set to meet next Thursday, a potential turning point after months of tariff volleys, chip war and political posturing. Will this meeting calm tensions or spark another round of market chaos? Meanwhile, investors pin their hopes on robust tech earnings and another Federal Reserve (Fed) rate cut, despite inflation stubbornly hovering around 3%. From SMIC’s surge to Nvidia’s warning and Beijing’s drive for tech independence, the stage is set for twists and turns across markets. Stocks are at record highs, the dollar’s defying expectations, and gold bears give signs of calming down. But can the stock market rally last if the data disappoints?Listen to find out more!Ipek Ozkardeskaya has begun her financial career in 2010 in the structured products desk of the Swiss Banque Cantonale Vaudoise.

LinkedIn: https://swq.ch/cH10 min - Geopolitical tensions, credit risks and earnings: a hectic mixTrade 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.
