Bloomberg Daybreak: Asia Edition

Wall Street traders defied calls for a breather after a $15 trillion stock rally from April lows, with Nvidia Corp. boosting optimism on artificial intelligence after pledging to invest as much as $100 billion in OpenAI. Tech led gains in the S&P 500, with the US equity benchmark hitting its 28th record this year. The world's largest chipmaker rallied about 4%. Its investment is intended to help OpenAI build data centers with a capacity of 10 gigawatts of power using Nvidia's advanced AI chips to train and deploy OpenAI's models. For a closer look at the market landscape, we hear from Michael Green, Chief Strategist at Simplify Asset Management.

Meanwhile, Asian stocks posted a modest gain at the open. Gauges in Australia and South Korea rose while equity-index futures for Hong Kong — facing its most damaging typhoon since 2018 — were flat. For more on markets, we get the views of Daniel Lam, Head of Equity Strategy at Standard Chartered Wealth Solutions. He speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong on The Asia Trade.

Stocks Gain as Tech Rally Spurs S&P Record

Wall Street closed out the highly anticipated Federal Reserve week with stocks notching fresh all-time highs as prospects for more rate cuts bolstered the outlook for corporate earnings. US President Donald Trump said Friday that he would meet Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit and hailed progress toward finalizing a deal over TikTok, after a highly anticipated call on Friday. The in-person meeting would be the first between the leaders of the world's two largest economies since the US president returned to office, and settles an extended back-and-forth between Washington and Beijing around the venue and timing. The APEC summit is slated to be held in South Korea next month. We get perspective from Patrick Kennedy, Managing Partner at AllSource Investment Management.

Meantime, Asian shares edged higher at the open, led by Japan, after the central bank eased concerns over plans to offload its massive exchange-traded fund holdings. The Nikkei-225 Index jumped 1.3% as trading kicked off in a new week, bouncing back after the Bank of Japan's comments on ETF sales spooked the markets Friday. Shares in Australia and South Korea also rose at the open. We get more on the markets from Alicia Garcia Herrero, Chief APAC Economist at Natixis. She speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong on The Asia Trade.

Daybreak Weekend: The Future of the Fed, UK Private Markets, Miran's Impact Overseas

Wall Street's bets that Federal Reserve rate cuts will keep powering Corporate America drove stocks to all-time highs, with traders piling into the riskier corners of the market. The S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, Dow Jones Industrial Average and Russell 2000 small-cap index all closed at fresh highs on Thursday, for the first time since November 2021. An MSCI index of global stocks also closed at a record. We look at the market landscape with Shams Afzal, Managing Director at the Carnegie Investment Counsel.

Plus - Fed Chair Jerome Powell managed against the odds to forge a near-unanimous consensus at this week's policy meeting, with new Governor Stephen Miran the only one to vote against the quarter-percentage-point interest-rate cut. Miran, a close ally of President Donald Trump who was just sworn into a temporary Fed position on Tuesday, dissented in favor of a larger reduction — something the president has been demanding for months. In her latest column, Bloomberg Opinion's Shuli Ren writes that one thing is clear following Miran's appointment: the dollar will get a lot weaker. She joins us to explain.

Fed Rate Cut Spurs Record Day on Wall Street

US equity-index futures gained, suggesting investors are regaining confidence after the Federal Reserve's decision to lower borrowing costs, even as questions linger over the path of future policy moves. Contracts for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 advanced around 0.4% in early trading Thursday, after the underlying benchmarks posted minor declines following the central bank's announcement. Stocks climbed to record highs this week as investors priced in a 25-basis-point cut ahead of Wednesday's meeting. While the Fed followed through, officials stressed policy will be decided "meeting by meeting" and warned "there's no risk-free path" ahead. Even so, policymakers now see two additional quarter-point cuts this year, which is one more than what was projected in June. We get reaction from George Schultze, Founder and CEO at Schultze Asset Management.

Meanwhile, Chinese focused ETFs rose overnight to provide a modest tailwind for Asian peers, despite US stocks and bonds slipping after the FOMC decision. For more on what's driving markets in the Asia-Pacific, we get the views of Stephanie Leung, Chief Investment Officer at StashAway.

US Futures, APAC Stocks Gain After Fed's First Rate Cut of 2025

A solid reading on US retail sales Tuesday did little to sway markets, with attention firmly on the Federal Reserve meeting. Investors are looking for clues on the path of interest rates that will shape the outlook in the months ahead, with some bond traders stepping up options wagers that the central bank will deliver at least one half-point cut. We preview Wednesday's Fed decision with Bob Doll, President and CIO at Crossmark Global Investments.
 
Meantime, Asian stocks posted a modest drop at the open following a tepid Wall Street session, as investors held back ahead of Wednesday's rate announcement. Shares in Japan and South Korea retreated while the MSCI Asia Pacific Index edged 0.2% lower after nine consecutive days of gains. The S&P 500 slipped 0.1% Tuesday and the Nasdaq 100 ended a nine-day winning streak. Equity-index futures for the US posted a small gain. We get insights from Sean Darby, Managing Director at Mizuho Securities Asia. He speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Annabelle Droulers on The Asia Trade.

Bond Traders Boost Bets on Half-Point Fed Rate Cuts by Year-End

Asian stocks posted modest gains at the open after Wall Street hit fresh highs ahead of an expected Federal Reserve interest-rate cut this week. Shares in Japan, Australia and South Korea opened higher, with the MSCI Asia-Pacific Index hovering near its record high. Bets on Fed easing sent the S&P 500 above 6,600 on Monday, while the Nasdaq 100 posted its longest advance since 2023. Meantime, Donald Trump's economic adviser Stephen Miran is on his way to joining the Federal Reserve board after the Senate confirmed him to the post in a vote Monday evening. The Senate voted largely along party lines to approve Miran's nomination, setting him up to walk into the Fed's Washington offices Tuesday morning in time for this week's FOMC meeting. We get the views of Katy Kaminski, Chief Research Strategist and Portfolio Manager at AlphaSimplex.

Plus - President Trump said he would speak with Chinese leader Xi Jinping on Friday as US and Chinese officials reached a framework deal on keeping the TikTok app running in the US. It would be the first direct engagement between Trump and Xi since June. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who led the talks in Spain, told reporters that a framework to keep ByteDance's TikTok app running in the US had been reached. China's Vice Commerce Minister Li Chenggang also told reporters in Madrid that a framework of "consensus" had been reached on TikTok, while cautioning that Beijing won't sacrifice principles for a deal. We get reaction from Wendy Cutler, Vice President at the Asia Society Policy Institute. She speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Annabelle Droulers on The Asia Trade.

Fed Board Shakeup, Trump-Xi Call Set for Friday

The dollar was steady in early Asian trading as US-China trade talks entered a second day, with investors focused on this week's Federal Reserve policy decision. The key question for investors this week is whether Fed officials will push back against market bets on a series of interest-rate cuts extending into next year. A quarter-point reduction is seen as a sure thing when the Fed announces its policy decision Wednesday, with a small potential for a half-point move amid signs US job growth is slowing rapidly. We break down the forces driving Fed policy with Adam Coons, Chief Investment Officer at Winthrop Capital Management.

The greenback was mixed against major currencies and US equity-index futures were little changed after the benchmark S&P 500 closed flat on Friday. Asian contracts signaled declines at the open, while Japan's markets are closed for a holiday. In addition to the Fed's decision on Wednesday, the Banks of Canada, England, and Japan are also set to announce policy decisions this week. We get more perspective on the week's monetary policy decisions from Louise Loo, Lead Economist at Oxford Economics. She speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Annabelle Droulers on The Asia Trade.

Daybreak Weekend: Fed Decision, Trump UK Visit, BOJ Policy

A relatively tame US inflation reading combined with more signs of jobs cooling spurred a rally on Wall Street amid speculation the Federal Reserve will slash interest rates for the first time this year. The highly anticipated consumer price index showed that while inflation is still above the Fed's 2% target, it's not spinning out of control. Alongside that report came the usually noisy jobless-claims figures, which jumped to the highest in almost four years, emboldening bets policymakers will cut rates next week in an effort to counter a rapid slowdown in the labor market. We get the market views of Jim Craige, Co-Chief Investment Officer & Head of Emerging Markets at Stone Harbor Investment Partners.

Plus - MSCI's gauge of Asian shares rose for a seventh day and neared a fresh record, after the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indexes both climbed to fresh closing highs in New York. A gauge of global stocks also hit a new record. Contracts for US equities were little changed Friday. We get more perspective from Jun Bei Liu, Co-Founder and Lead Portfolio Manager at Ten Cap. She speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong on The Asia Trade.
