Markets break 2 week loss streak despite faltering #AI rally…


🤖 AI rally peaking? Nvidia crushed earnings with its outlook blowing out even sky-high #AI whisper number expectations. However, despite the initial afterhours surge, markets pulled back the day after with investors selling the news giving up earlier gains.

💸 Powell speech. Nothing really new from Powell’s Jackson Hole Symposium speech, but markets welcomed no surprises with #RisingYields expectations growing the past few weeks. The S&P 500 rose Friday to end the week up +0.8%.

🏦 More credit crunch (again). S&P Global downgraded 5 US regional banks due to tough operating conditions. This follows Moody’s downgrades a couple weeks ago and Fitch’s warning last week. #CreditCrunch worries continue to build with Financials continuing to underperform.
