Market News

The US October CPI will be released tonight: core inflation is expected to remain strong, while overall inflation is set to rise. The US October CPI data will be announced on Wednesday night. Market participants predict that this latest data will show core inflation remaining strong for the third consecutive month, with the pace of Fed rate cuts in the coming months likely to be a topic of debate. The market currently expects the year-on-year increase in US October CPI to be 2.6%, higher than September's 2.4%; the month-on-month increase is expected to be 0.2%, in line with the previous value. The year-on-year increase in core CPI excluding food and energy items is forecasted to be 3.3%, consistent with the previous value; the month-on-month increase is expected to be 0.3%, likewise in line with the previous value. If the US October CPI data is below expectations, it indicates that current inflation is generally under control, putting pressure on US bond yields and the dollar; if the CPI data shows an unexpected rebound, it may raise concerns about high inflation making a comeback, potentially hindering future rate cuts, leading to a rise in US bond yields and the dollar's momentum.

The stock market's high-risk areas are showing signs of a bubble, with excitement and concerns coexisting after Trump's victory. Following President-elect Donald Trump's decisive victory, signs of a surge in market bubbles have emerged in high-risk areas of the stock market, raising concerns about the market overheating. Despite some declines in early trading prior to the release of key inflation data, including small-cap stocks, stocks heavily shorted, and unprofitable tech stocks, the market remains engulfed in excitement, especially with significant gains in Tesla and Bitcoin. However, market observers also point out worrisome signals, such as the risk of small-caps when bond yields rise, the high level of unprofitable tech stock indices, and indicators of a large number of shorted stocks nearing the trading range that signals a reversal. Despite these concerns, the bulls have not lost all hope as some market indicators suggest the rebound may not be over yet.

Trump 2.0 policies support the strengthening of the US dollar, while emerging markets continue to decline. Due to investors betting that the newly elected US President Trump and his new government will receive strong support to implement his policies, the US dollar continues to rise, leading to a drop in emerging market assets on Wednesday. The MSCI Emerging Markets Stock Index fell by 0.8% at one point, marking the fourth consecutive day of decline, setting the longest losing streak in three weeks. During this period, the market capitalization of the index evaporated by $650 billion. Meanwhile, the emerging markets currency index hovered at its lowest point in three months, dragged down by the US dollar rising to a two-year high against a basket of currencies. With the formation of Trump's cabinet, the performance gap between the US stock market and other stock markets continues to widen, with key positions to be held by loyalists prepared to execute the "America First" policy. This has raised concerns about the increase in tariffs gaining support, accelerating inflation, and limiting the central bank's ability to cut interest rates.

Bridgewater Co-CIO: US stocks are worth owning, the US economy is expected to grow strongly. Karen Karniol-Tambour, Co-CIO of Bridgewater Fund, stated on Tuesday that US stocks are a "good thing" worth holding. She added that she expects strong economic growth in the US under the leadership of the Trump administration. Since Trump's victory, the S&P 500 index has risen by nearly 5%. Karniol-Tambour stated that despite the ten-year US bond yields rising to a four-month high after Trump's victory, the prospects for US economic growth are driving the stock market higher. She said, "We may still have room for growth, even with tariffs and many unknown factors."

Several institutions claim that Trump's victory will "affect" the bond market, and US bond yields may rise to 5% or higher. Investment institutions including Franklin Templeton, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, and T. Rowe Price believe that as the market digests the impact of Trump's victory on the bond market, US bond yields will rise. Franklin Templeton stated that as the US government increases debt supply to cover trillions of dollars in deficits, the yield on the 10-year US Treasury bonds may rise to 5% or higher. Drexel, along with J.P. Morgan Asset Management and T. Rowe Price, warned that as investors begin to digest the impact of Donald Trump's reelection on the bond market, US Treasury bond yields might rise. Since November 5th, the US bond market has been fluctuating as traders weigh whether the federal budget deficit will expand and if the Federal Reserve can continue to cut interest rates.

Trump appoints Musk to lead the "Department of Government Efficiency", Dogecoin violently surges. On Tuesday evening local time, the US President-elect Trump formally announced the formation of the Department of Government Efficiency ('DOGE'), causing Dogecoin to continue its upward trend. In a statement, Trump announced that Tesla (TSLA.US) CEO Elon Musk and former Republican presidential candidate and Co-Founder of Strive Asset Management, Vivek Ramaswamy, will lead the department. They will "clear the way for this administration by removing bureaucratic government, reducing unnecessary regulations, cutting waste spending, and restructuring federal agencies." Dogecoin rose by nearly 20%. The token has been one of the biggest winners since the election, rising by 153% since election day, while Bitcoin has only increased by 30% during the same period.

Pessimism overwhelms the oil market! If OPEC+ cancels production cuts, oil prices may plummet to $40 in 2025. As OPEC has lowered global oil demand growth expectations for four consecutive months, and with the gradually accepted "oversupply in oil supply by 2025" view dominated by Wall Street's major banks, bulk commodity investment institutions generally hold a deeply pessimistic outlook on price prospects in 2025 for current crude oil and refined oil futures markets, especially for Brent crude oil and WTI crude oil prices. Goldman Sachs predicts that under the trend of oversupply in oil supply, Brent crude oil futures prices may fall to as low as $61 next year. However, some commodity market analysts have a more pessimistic view than Goldman on the trend of Brent crude oil prices, suggesting that crude oil prices in 2025 may plummet significantly to $40, and in the most pessimistic scenario, could drop to $30.
