investingLive Americas market news wrap: Tech stocks rally
Today's main theme is a split picture across markets. Technology shares rallied in the United States, while fresh economic data came in close to expectations. At the same time, energy costs tied to the conflict in the Middle East are weighing on households, and consumer sentiment in Europe is under pressure.
On energy, Americans are carrying the largest share of the global rise in fuel prices caused by the war in the Middle East. That comes as the overall worldwide total of fuel inflation is being estimated. Separate industry data showed United States crude inventories falling by about two million barrels in the week ending October twenty third, after a decline the week before.
In Europe, French household confidence dropped sharply in October. The reading came in at eighty, well below the eighty five that had been expected, and down from a prior figure that was revised to eighty five. That is the lowest level since twenty thirteen, as fiscal worries and concerns about the country's finances weigh on households.
In Asia, mainland Chinese stocks have lost about two point four trillion dollars since May. Investors are questioning whether artificial intelligence companies there can turn a profit. United States restrictions and high American interest rates are adding to the pressure.
On the product side, VanEck has launched a diversified fund that combines stocks, bonds and Bitcoin exposure. The new fund targets a two percent Bitcoin allocation, with a permitted range of one to five percent, and gains that exposure through a spot Bitcoin exchange traded product.
In credit markets, S and P expects growth in global bond issuance to slow to two point seven percent in twenty twenty seven, the weakest pace in five years. Borrowing linked to artificial intelligence remains the main swing factor. In other news, Galaxy Digital returned to profit in the third quarter and authorized a new two hundred million dollar share buyback.
