Chip Selloff Extends to Asia, Pony AI Robotaxi Revenue Reaches Record

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.
 
Asian bonds followed Treasuries lower as concerns over government finances mounted, while higher oil prices added to fears that inflation will quicken. Treasury 30-year yields rose to 5.32%, a level last seen in June 2007. Oil prices advanced as prospects for peace in the Middle East dimmed, reviving concern that prolonged geopolitical tensions will threaten supplies and keep energy costs elevated. Global benchmark Brent rose 0.3% to $91.10 a barrel after President Donald Trump said he wasn't interested in extending the expiring agreement with Iran and fighting flared anew in Lebanon. Bloomberg's Executive Editor for Asia Markets Paul Dobson breaks down the markets.
 
Plus - in earnings news, BHP Group's full-year profit rose by almost a third, thanks to improved copper and iron ore prices that helped the world's largest miner beat forecasts, just as new boss Brandon Craig takes the helm. Craig, who started as chief executive officer in July, is focused on delivering a major pipeline of growth including expansions in South American and Australian copper — as well as its push into potash, a mineral used in fertilizer. BHP says it is targeting 3% to 4% copper equivalent growth per year up to 2035 — roughly double consensus expectations. Julia Lee, Investment Director at Shaw and Partners Asset Management spoke to Bloomberg TV host Paul Allen.

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.
 
Japan saw economic growth slow down unexpectedly in the second quarter with Real GDP growing at an annual rate of only 1.1%.
 
The weakness reflects a slump in capital spending, given uncertainties stemming from the conflict in the Middle East. This potentially complicates the Bank of Japan's policy communications as it weighs the timing of its next rate increase. For more, Bloomberg TV hosts Paul Allen and Haidi Stroud-Watts spoke with Homin Lee, senior macro strategist at Lombard Odier on the Asia Trade.
 
The AI race in China is making a shift towards cyber defense. Z.ai has announced that its latest model, GLM-5.3, is designed with cyber defense in mind.

Daybreak Weekend: US Housing, Europe Data, Yen Intervention

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

Asian stocks rose, adding to a fourth week of gains, as moderating US inflation reinforced bets that the Federal Reserve will refrain from raising interest rates next month. Technology stocks extended their rebound. In Asia, the yen remained within striking distance of 160 per dollar, even after Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s government was said to support an interest-rate increase. The Japanese currency was little changed Friday, near 159.43 per dollar. We get reaction from David Finnerty, Bloomberg News FX & Rates Strategist.
 
Plus - even as Treasuries rallied Thursday, the US sold 30-year bonds at the highest yield in a quarter century, underscoring the premium investors are demanding to finance the nation’s deficits. Meantime, back-to-back benign inflation prints, following last week’s softer-than-expected jobs report and a pullback in oil prices, are easing pressure on the Fed to tighten policy at its meeting next month. For more on the broader market backdrop, we hear from Tim Waterer, Chief Market Analyst at KCM Trade Global.

Brent crude snapped a six-day rally, while attention was also on the yen as it traded around the key level of 160 per dollar, keeping investors on the lookout for more intervention by officials in the foreign-exchange market. We speak with Mark Cranfield, Bloomberg News MLIV Strategist. 
 
Plus - caution prevailed after Cisco Systems’ earnings failed to impress, sending its shares lower in extended trading. Cerebras Systems tumbled 17% after sales declined at its hardware business.

Stocks Rise, Fed Hike Bets Ease After Tame US CPI

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific. 
 
Sentiment toward technology remained buoyant, with CoreWeave Inc. surging 16% in extended trading after booming artificial intelligence spending drove stronger-than-expected sales growth. Super Micro Computer Inc. rallied 7.6% in the post market after its revenue forecast topped estimates. The robust tech earnings helped MSCI’s Asia Pacific equities gauge advance 0.4%, with South Korea’s tech-heavy Kospi Index adding 2.8%. US equity-index futures were little changed. We hear from Xi Qiao, Managing Director and Financial Advisor at UBS. 
 
Plus - the yen was little changed around 159.33 a dollar. Investors are watching the currency as it approaches the key level of 160, raising concern that Japanese authorities will intervene again. The dollar weakened against most of its Group-of-10 peers. We discuss the yen story with Michael Ball, Bloomberg News Macro Strategist.

Oil Gains Before US CPI, Asian Tech Stocks Rise

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

Early focus in Asia is on the yen after the currency weakened 1% on Monday, erasing about half of its recent intervention-led rally. The move is psychologically significant for traders, who remain on alert for further official support. The yen was slightly stronger in early Tuesday trading at about 159.10 per dollar. We discuss with David Savage, Bloomberg News MLIV Strategist in Hong Kong.

Plus - US investment giants including Apollo Global Management Inc., Blackstone Inc., BlackRock Inc. and Brookfield Asset Management are partnering with Nvidia Corp. to invest $500 billion in artificial intelligence infrastructure. The news came on the same day as Intel announcing a new share sale, and Anthropic striking a $9.1 billion deal with Riot Platforms. We examine the state of the global AI buildout with Grace Tam, Deputy Asia CIO at BNP Paribas Wealth Management.

Yen in Focus After Weakening; Wall Street's $500B Nvidia Deal

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.
 
Oil extended its recent gains as Iran rejected talks with the US and a deal to reopen the vital Strait of Hormuz remained elusive. Treasuries declined. Meanwhile, a gauge of Asian stocks rose 0.4%, with gains for South Korean and Japanese chipmakers. The Kospi Index climbed as much as 2% before trimming its advance, with SK Hynix Inc. and Samsung Electronics Co. among the winners. The move followed Friday's Wall Street rally after soft US jobs data lifted equities, sending the S&P 500 Index to a record high. Bloomberg's Haidi Stroud-Watts spoke to Jasmine Duan, Senior Investment Strategist at RBC Wealth Management Asia.
 
And prices paid by US consumers probably inched up marginally last month after falling for the first time in six years, a welcome tempering in recent war-driven inflationary pressures. The closely watched consumer price index is seen rising 0.1% in July following a 0.4% decline in the prior month, based on the median projection in a Bloomberg survey of economists ahead of Wednesday's Bureau of Labor Statistics release. In the wake of Friday's weak July jobs report, the moderation in price growth may help alleviate some of the inflation anxiety at the Federal Reserve after three officials dissented on July 29 in favor of raising interest rates. Bloomberg's Haidi Stroud-Watts spoke to Illiana Jain, International Economist at Westpac.
