Here's the latest market news, hand-curated by our research team. The Big Story [AMD chip] Chipmaker AMD reported earnings that beat estimates but gave a lighter sales forecast than expected. The impressive sales growth of 70% year over year came from all four of AMD's major segments. It expects strong growth for servers processors to continue, not expecting a slowdown in demand for these chips. The stock fell 7% in after-hours as investors digest lower growth expectations and take profits from a strong July.

Chances for the pairs to weaken further are good should yields resume their upward move. ⢠Traders bought the dip in oil prices ahead of OPEC's meeting today. Markets will be watching if the cartel decides to alter future production. ⢠Lastly, Pelosi's Taiwan trip is also creating fresh pressure points for investors. China vowed to respond with "strong and resolute" measures. Economic data ⢠US PMIs, factory orders ⢠EU PPI, PMIs retail sales ⢠German current account, PMIs ⢠OPEC meeting, oil inventories ⢠UK PMIs ⢠Switzerland CPI Earnings ⢠Moderna ⢠Booking.com, eBay, AXA ⢠BMW, Lucid ⢠CVS Health, Regeneron ⢠Nintendo, Fortinet ⢠Yum Brands Crypto ⢠Bitcoin fell for much of the day, with prices contracting 1%, marking the fifth consecutive day of declines, with each coming on below-average volume. Investors may be awaiting clearer buy/sell signals. ⢠Robinhood announced it will slash almost a quarter of its workforce. The brokerage also reported a USD295 million loss in the second quarter.

Bond yields surged, pushing the dollar higher against the whole G-10 basket, with the yen, kiwi and Aussie all losing at least 1%. Oil erased early session gains and gold retreated. This morning, US stock futures are up 0.25% as investors see some relief from anxiety over US-China tensions. Treasury yields are declining and the euro-dollar is rebounding slightly. Chart Of The Day Gold rose to the highest level since early July as investors are bracing for a cloudy outlook in growth and a stormy period in US-China relations with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi heading for Taiwan. The precious metal often benefits from bouts of geopolitical turbulence, and the Pelosi trip only adds to tailwinds.
