Global Markets:
European and Asian markets advanced on Thursday, as chip shares rallied after Nvidia’s stronger-than-expected earnings and bullish forecast appeared to reinforce confidence in the global AI trade and boost the broader market.
Shares of the chip giant jumped more than 4% in extended trading after its fiscal third-quarter earnings beat earnings and revenue expectations. The AI chip maker also gave a stronger-than-expected fourth-quarter sales forecast, with CEO Jensen Huang saying demand for its current-generation Blackwell chips is “off the charts.”
U.S. equity futures edged higher in early Asian hours after Nvidia’s upbeat guidance, which likely lifted investor sentiment around the AI trade, following recent sessions that reflected fears about elevated valuations, debt financing, and potential chip depreciation.
On Wall Street, stocks closed mostly higher on Wednesday as Wall Street recovered some ground from tech-led sell-off.
The S&P 500 gained 0.38% to close at 6,642.16, snapping a four-day losing streak, while the Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.59% to settle at 22,564.23. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 47 points, or 0.1%, to finish at 46,138.77.
Latest meeting minutes released on Wednesday showed that the Federal Reserve officials were at odds during their October meeting over cutting interest rates, divided over whether a stalling labor market or stubborn inflation were bigger economic threats.
While the Federal Open Market Committee approved a cut at the meeting, the path forward looks less certain. Disagreements stretched into the outlook for December, with officials expressing skepticism about the need for an additional reduction that markets had been widely anticipating, with “many” saying that no more cuts are needed at least in 2025.
The minutes did note that “most participants” saw further cuts likely in the future, though not necessarily in December.
The minutes also discussed the balance sheet aspect of policy. The FOMC agreed to stop the reduction of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities in December, a process that has shaved more than $2.5 trillion off the balance sheet, which is still around $6.6 trillion. There appeared to be widespread approval for the halting of a process known as quantitative tightening.

In Japan, concern over ballooning government spending plans has sent long-end bonds sliding and yields to record highs.

Simultaneously doubts are growing that the U.S. will cut interest rates again in December and investors worry that U.S. President Donald Trump's falling approval rating could drive fiscal spending and possibly stoke inflation.
