US stocks showed an uneven trend on Wednesday amid fluctuations in the earnings season. Although the Dow barely maintained five consecutive gains, setting a record for the longest continuous rise in more than four months, both the NASDAQ index and the S&P 500 index fell for a while. The stock prices of Disney and Palantir plummeted 9.5% and 15%, respectively, after the financial reports were announced. The latter recorded the biggest one-day decline in two years. Meanwhile, Reddit once surged nearly 20% in after-hours trading.
In the tech sector, Google closed up nearly 2% with positive dynamics after its new product launch, while Tesla fell nearly 4%. Chip stocks experienced a day of fluctuation, with Nvidia falling more than 3% during the intraday period. The European stock market performed well. The pan-European stock index hit a record high. After the financial report, UBS and Infineon rose 7.6% and nearly 13% respectively in the European stock market.
Apple launched the thinnest iPad Pro in history, equipped with an M4 chip, and iPad Air, Pencil, and Magic Control keyboards. Google snatched Apple to launch an affordable AI phone, selling the Pixel 8a for 499 US dollars, adding AI features without increasing the price. The new Pixel tablet costs 399 US dollars, which is a reduction in price compared to the previous generation.
The monetary policy outlook for the US economy is also the focus of market attention. The comments of the Minneapolis Federal Reserve Chairman suggest that the Federal Reserve may keep interest rates high for a longer period of time. This statement has further fueled market concerns that the US neutral interest rate may be higher than expected. As a result, the US dollar index reached a new high and continued to break away from its low level for more than three weeks. Compared to...

In Australia mortgage holders and owners of ASX small caps will be on guard with RBA Governor’s press conference on Tuesday being a big focus, and whether or not potential rate hikes could be on the cards this year.
That's right, I said it. Rate hikes are on the cards after a series of hotter than expected CPI reads, and now the...

Remember, our job as investors is pretty simple – protect our investment capital from short-term destruction so we can play the long-term investment game. Here are our thoughts on this.
• Capital preservation is always the primary objective. If you lose your capital, you are out of the game.
• Seek a rate of return sufficient to keep pace with the inflation rate. Don’t focus on beating the market.
•Keep expectations based on realistic objectives. (The market does not compound at 8%, 6% or 4%)

The world economy is set to surpass $100 trillion for the first time in 2022, two years earlier than previously forecast, according to the Centre for Economics and Business Research.
Global gross domestic product will be lifted by the continued recovery from the pandemic, although if inflation persists it may be hard for policy makers to avoid tipping their economies back into recession, the London-based think tank said.
“The important issue for the 2020s is how the world economies cope with inflation,” said Douglas McWilliams, the CEBR’s deputy chairman. “We hope that a relatively modest adjustment to the tiller will bring the non-transitory elements under control. If not, then the world will need to brace itself for a recession in 2023 or 2024.”
The forecast is in line with estimates of the International Monetary Fund, which also predicts global GDP measured in dollars and in current prices will pass $100 trillion in 2022.

As traders return from the holiday-shortened week, the price action heading into the new year will be closely monitored — especially given the relatively light economic data and earnings calendar for the coming days.
The S&P 500 $S&P 500 Index(.SPX.US$ is entering the period known for ushering in the so-called Santa Claus Rally, or seasonally strong timeframe for stocks at the end of each year.
According to data from LPL Financial, the Santa Claus Rally period encapsulates the seven days most likely to be higher in any given year. Since 1950, the Santa Claus Rally period has produced a positive return for the S&P 500 78.9% of the time, with an average return of 1.33%.
