2026/02/27

Today, a look at the market punishing Nvidia shares, and many other AI hardware-related stocks in Thursday's session - was this mostly about options-related flow or red flag related to long term growth concerns? Also, a look at other names with big moves, including Block ripping higher on announcing plans to fire 40% of its workforce due to AI productivity gains. Elsewhere, some thoughts on macro and FX and SMC goes down a rare earth rabbit hole on one of the rarest of all elements as well as the

2026/02/26

Let's see if the US cash session (and the action into Friday's options expiry) tells us otherwise, but the market's very restrained reaction to Nvidia's very strong report might suggest a concern linked to the long term sustainability of Nvidia's prospects even amidst the incredible near term numbers. Elsewhere, we break down the results of other key software-as-a-service names reporting as well as some thoughts on Iran, a top geopolitical concern the market is ignoring, FX and more. Today's pod

The AI disruption trade finally saw some consolidation yesterday, ironically the day after a viral report on profound AI disruption sweeping over the market. Elsewhere, we have Meta going big on its commitment to AMD and Nvidia and key software-as-a-service names reporting today after the close. In FX, the JPY is tumbling as dovish BoJ appointments have the market questioning whether Japan's PM Takaichi has any commitment to corral JPY weakness, which may have also provided the fresh lift in gold

The AI apocalypse trade - when does it stop?

Saxo Market Call ·

2026/02/24

The AI disruption overlay trade is now bordering on the AI apocalypse trade as a well penned research report intensifies the sell-off in names that the market fears the future of AI will disrupt. IBM suddenly the latest victim on the announcement of the latest Anthropic tool that might be able to update old mainframe software. We try to assess the landscape and wonder when and whether the selling stops, or whether the sell-off sparks widening fears for the market. The latest on macro and FX and much

2026/02/23

With Ruben Dalfovo, Saxo Equity Market strategist, today we delve into how to approach and rate the prospects for beaten down software-as-a-service (SaaS) stocks with a systematic approach and how some names may have been unfairly punished recently while the business models of others are indeed in doubt. We also look at a number of important software names reporting this week, as well as previewing the biggest hardware name of them all: Nvidia, who reports earnings Wednesday. Also, Trump tariffs,

Today, another breakdown of the remarkable dispersion in the US market, with few signs that it is ending just yet, while Europe continues to soar on record inflows. FX is deeper in limbo after USD shorts were squeezed - important to see how we close for the week there, especially for EURUSD as we saw a very pale green shoot from the German Manufacturing PMI today for the first time in years. This and much more on today's pod, which is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy.Links

2026/02/19

Today, a look at a modest US equity market rally as we wonder whether those pressing recent themes within AI winners vs. AI losers have overextended themselves. In any case, equity technicals look pivotal here, as does the USD and JPY outlook in key pairs, all while we wonder whether markets, outside of the crude oil market itself, are too complacent in continuing to ignore the risk of the outbreak of a war or regime change attempt in Iran.

AI overlay trades: is mean reversion the new pain trade?

Saxo Market Call ·

2026/02/18

Today, continuing to note the wild swings in individual names even as the overall indices look relatively flat on the surface, while wondering whether some of the recent attempts to play the AI winners/losers game has gone too far and if we could see some mean reversion. We run through a number of individual stock stories as well. Over in macro and FX we note the market shifting into limbo mode, which is raising uncertainty levels uncomfortably.

Today, we discuss the ongoing "AI Overlay" trade, note another AI-related company that is not a hyperscaler, but is set to spend up to USD 200 billion on capacity expansions in coming years. Elsewhere, we discuss the strength of US treasury and Japans' government bond markets and whether this is contributing to pressure on precious metals. As well, we ponder whether both the US dollar and yen might strengthen against the other major currencies and the next keys for sterling direction. Today's pod

AI overlay mayhem: where is this taking us?

Saxo Market Call ·

2026/02/16

Today, a look at everyone attempting to put on the "AI overlay" trade and whether this unsettles confidence in the market more broadly, or just deepens recent and very remarkable dispersion in the performance of many sectors. We also note the intense new focus on Walmart, which reports earnings later this week. Elsewhere, a rundown of macro and FX developments after soft US CPI data reported Friday and much more.

2026/02/13

Today, strong notes of general concern as yesterday could have marked the beginning of a broader weakening in risk sentiment, which has so far been avoided amidst the wild churn in individual stocks in the US even as the overall index has chopped around within the high end of the range. The worst thing for this market might be a sudden return of high correlation across stocks. Elsewhere, the JPY rally stalled out on a modest USD comeback as we await key US CPI data today, while treasuries showed

Today, a look at carnage for additional individual names on AI disruption fears even amidst relative market calm in US equities. Elsewhere, a break down of the US jobs report, going way beyond all of the headlines on the January numbers to indicate how little the wiser we are all on the actual state of the US labor market from this specific report. As well, a look at the chunky further JPY rally and whether and how a possible revaluation of the yen might unfold from here. Today's pod is hosted by

Today, we discuss another session marked by notable divergences within the US stock universe, oil markets heading into territory that is starting to look expensive unless geopolitical tensions spill over into actual confrontation, the idea that the best things for gold and silver bulls might be for the price action to just calm down for a while, and the macro backdrop heating up with key US data ahead - especially today's US payrolls revisions, which are far more important than the latest data

Today, a look at the US equity market suffering it first real broad sell-off in a while as nearly everything sold off yesterday, with the negative vibes intensifying after the close on news of Amazon.com's titanic spending plans on AI for the coming year. Elsewhere, crypto suffered one of its worst days ever, unsettling risk sentiment further. Also, a look at macro and FX, especially the wobbles in sterling on BoE and political developments.

We try to piece together a takeaway and wonder as well whether the European equity market performance has gotten overcooked.

Today, while the software-as-a-service disruption concern has been roiling for quite some time for many companies, yesterday's market action saw a massive new acceleration in the negative focus on companies that face a risk from AI disruption as new agentic AI applications come on board - some of them names that had escaped negative attention before. We look at a number of these names, other key moves in equities, the latest pressure on crypto and whether it can be stopped and macro and FX and more

Today, a look at global risk appetite in a happy mood as precious metals markets have stabilized and the US manufacturing sector shows its first interesting sign of revival in years. Palantir shareholders were also able to celebrate their "cosmic reward" for sticking with the company as the company reported strong earnings after the close. Disney shareholders had less to celebrate. Elsewhere, the USD is back at a tipping point as bears need to make a stand or else. This and more on today's pod,

Silver crash - what's next? US equity market fragility?

Today, we unpack the Friday crash in silver, and to a lesser extent gold, noting that the Kevin Warsh as Fed Chair nominee news was a mere excuse for a market that was already showing signs of total dysfunction, as covered in our Thursday January 29 podcast. Elsewhere, we look at the general contagion of the metals volatility into other markets, including in rates, FX and equities, where we continue to monitor some strange behaviors that my suggest considerable market fragility.

We also look forward to a busy earnings week next week with two more Mag7 names reporting. Also on today's call, a look at the market reaction to stories that Trump is set to announce today that Kevin Warsh will be nominated as the next Fed Chair and how to position this choice.
