With the Dow Jones surging and chip stock Arm making waves in its IPO debut, the US market landscape has been dynamic this week. As the Producer Price Index rises, beating estimates, and US consumers demonstrate resilience with stronger-than-expected retail sales, major players like Goldman Sachs and Caterpillar have further bolstered the market's confidence.
Dive into our weekly newsletter to delve deeper into these market shifts and uncover more ⬇️
Dow Jones soars amid strong arm IPO gains
The Dow Jones Industrial Average experienced a significant uptick, propelled by standout performances from Goldman Sachs ($GS) and Caterpillar ($CAT). Chip stock Arm ($ARM) saw a notable surge during its IPO debut. Renowned fund manager Cathie Wood invested heavily in the tech stock Roblox ($RBLX) but divested some Tesla ($TSLA) shares.
At the same time, the Producer Price Index (PPI) for August exceeded expectations, rising 0.7% month-over-month and 1.6% year-over-year. However, core PPI, excluding food and energy, only increased by 0.2% for August, a tad below anticipated figures.
Trading involves significant risk of loss.
Netflix stock falls after CFO says ad tier not material yet
Netflix's ($NFLX) stock declined 2% on Thursday, following a 5% decrease the day prior, after CFO Spencer Neumann's remarks at the Bank of America's Media, Communications, and Entertainment Conference. Neumann's comments on expected operating margins, anticipated to hover between 18% to 20% from a peak of 21%, unsettled investors, as current estimates stand slightly below 20%.
While he foresees margins rising in the future with revenue strategies like password sharing crackdowns and ad-supported services, Neumann cautioned that these initiatives, particularly the ad business, would require time to develop fully.

Oil tops $90 as inflation kicks up
The price of oil surpassed $90 per barrel due to tightening supplies and production cuts by Saudi Arabia and Russia, reaching a 10-month high. This rise intensifies inflationary concerns, as the consumer price index reported a 3.7% annual increase in August, largely driven by a surge in gas prices. Energy prices escalated 5.6% in August, with gas prices jumping 10.6%.
Additionally, the producer price index, indicating wholesale inflation, rose 0.7% in August, marking an annual increase of 1.6%.
Trading involves significant risk of loss.
Euro slips to six-month low after European Central Bank raises interest rates
The euro dropped to a six-month low of $1.0632 after the European Central Bank (ECB) increased interest rates by a quarter percentage point to a record 4%. Despite the rise, the ECB hinted it might be the final hike in its monetary tightening sequence.
This decision comes after the ECB's 10th consecutive rate hike since July 2022, aimed at addressing high inflation, which has currently slowed to 5.3% annually, still above the bank's 2% target.
Trading involves significant risk of loss.
