Global macro

  • Before the Thursday market opens, the three major futures of the US stock market rose together.

  • Barclays: One of the major drivers of US employment growth may be significantly weakened.

Barclays' latest report shows that the government has completely underestimated the contribution of immigrants to the US economy, and as Biden's measures to curb immigration growth are implemented, job growth may be significantly reduced. The bank estimates that maintaining recent administrative measures will ultimately result in a reduction of 65,000 job growth per month next year, while restoring Trump-era policies will result in a decrease of about 125,000 job growth per month.

  • Regaining lost ground! The expectation of a rate cut by the Federal Reserve has increased, and the "upward" trend of US bonds is gradually emerging.

US Treasuries have experienced a roller coaster ride in the first half of this year and are currently on the edge of breakeven. The core of this round of rebound in US bonds is that investors are betting that US price cooling will prompt the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates earlier and more significantly than officials have hinted, effectively limiting the magnitude of the increase in US Treasury yields.

  • Societe Generale: Bet on US stocks to win steadily, but diversification is needed.

Societe Generale stated in its latest report that although the US stock market will still be in the "best position" after 2024, which is a stable bet, investors need to start expanding their investment scope and increase opportunities in other asset areas. Strategist Alain Bokobza said that since June last year, the bank has a large exposure to US stocks, accounting for 30% of its total investment portfolio.

  • Strategist warns: US technology stocks may show "cracks".

Sam Stovall, Chief Investment Strategist at CFRA Research, recently issued a warning that under the pressure of the Federal Reserve's interest rates, inflation, and stock valuations, the S&P 500 index is about to usher in an adjustment and may fall by 5%. He pointed out that the valuation of large technology stocks in the US stock market is too high. In the future, US technology stocks may show the first cracks in the ice layer.

  • Goldman Sachs: Artificial Intelligence will significantly increase the electrical utilities demand for datacenters.

Goldman Sachs believes that the amount of electricity ChatGPT needs to process a query is almost 10 times that of Google search. The difference in electricity consumption will bring about huge changes in the way of energy consumption and cost in the United States, Europe, and even the world. For many years, even as workloads continue to increase, the demand for electricity in data centers has been very stable. However, with the marginal decreasing of the growth of electricity consumption efficiency and the rise of artificial intelligence, Goldman Sachs Research estimates that the demand for electricity in data centers will increase by 160% by 2030.

  • Bitcoin ETF issuer BlackRock issued a rare warning.

After briefly rising to $70,000 earlier this month, Bitcoin started to decline all the way, causing its market capitalization to shrink by $300 billion, making the long-awaited milestone of $4 trillion in the market far away. This has a direct relationship with the market’s expectation that the Federal Reserve will maintain a long-term high-interest-rate policy. BlackRock, the largest issuer of Bitcoin ETFs, also warns that an unprecedented situation is happening and may hit the Bitcoin price and cryptocurrency market.
