A nasty start to the day accelerated to a loss of 167 points (-1.9%) on the ASX 200 as RBA minutes and US futures took us down. The big three sectors were hit hard with the iron ore miners smacked. BHP off 3.7% on UK court ruling and RIO off 2.7% with FMG falling 2.0%. Energy stocks also slipped, WDS down 1.9% with STO off 0.6% and uranium stocks under pressure. Gold miners too sold off as bullion slipped, NST down 5.6% and EVN down 5.2% with lithium the only sector that saw any green. PLS up...

Not much fun at all for investors in the US overnight. The VIX spiked up 11.6% as the SP500 fell 0.9% to 6672. The Nasdaq was off 0.8% to 22708. The Russell 2000 was worse, down nearly 2%. There was no hiding in Big Tech, with Nvidia off 1.9% as its results on Wednesday loom ever closer over the market. Apple, Meta and Amazon were all down. The only winner was Alphabet, up 3% as news came out that Berkshire Hathaway has been accumulating the stock. Only the Utilities sector across the SP500 w...

The ASX 200 closed up 2 points to 8636 in a quiet session ahead of a big week in the US. Good comeback after a near 50 point fall this morning. Some signs of confidence returning with banks seeing a resumption of the sell CBA, buy the other three switch. The Big Bank Basket fell to $272.47 (-0.4%) as CBA dropped 1.0%.

Down 310 points and down 1100 in two sessions after hitting record highs earlier in the week. Short-term rotation from growth to value didn’t last long. The weak open coming from the same narrative as yesterday – odds of a Fed December rate cut falling due to inflation concerns (no official economic data released). 50% to 45% thi...

The ASX is set for a very tough open after Wall Street went down heavily and dragged the ASX futures down with it. It was the biggest one day fall for the SP500 and Nasdaq for over a month. It’s a similar story to the ASX yesterday with the prospect of rate cuts becoming fainter. In the US, the odds of a cut were 70% last week. Their only 47% now. The Nasdaq was down 2.2% and the SP500 1.66%. Volume lifted back to 20.8 bn shares after the recent lull, and the VIX jumped 16% to hit 20 again. S...

A good night for markets in the first session for the week. Both the SP500 (+1.5%) and the Nasdaq (2.4%) rose. Nvidia punched back 6% after its recent wobble. Tesla lifted 3.7%, with investors apparently not concerned about Elon Musk’s new pay deal. The Dow lifted 389 points. It’s a risk on move. Stronger conviction around the end of the US government shutdown this week helped sentiment as we await the delayed US data due. Bitcoin’s now rallied back to US$106,000 per BTC. Gold lifted a...
