Notes de l’épisode
Brian Szytel recaps a down Thursday for markets, with the Dow down 189 points, the S&P 500 down about 0.3%, and the Nasdaq down about 0.4% after a midday rebound faded into the close. He highlights energy and rate moves, noting WTI crude rose about 2.8% to roughly $88 after hopes for a Middle East-related deal were dampened by comments from the Trump administration, while the 10-year Treasury jumped 14 basis points to 5.13%. Economic data was light, with jobless claims slightly worse than expected (200K vs. 195K) and existing home sales in line at 3.8 million. The major equity story was NVIDIA’s CEO resignation, which sparked an early plunge before the stock closed down about 5% and left shares down 31% over 60 days, prompting a valuation-and-risk-focused discussion on whether the stock is an attractive entry point. He also mentions a Microsoft Office/Outlook server issue affecting users.
