Global Market Roundup: September 17, 2024
The global markets on September 17, 2024, presented a mixed bag of outcomes, with key highlights focusing on the tech and commodities sectors.
European markets opened higher, with futures indicating a positive trend, largely influenced by corporate news from tech giants Intel and Microsoft. Intel’s announcement of a strategic shift in its foundry business to create custom chips for Amazon sparked a notable rise in its share value. Meanwhile, Microsoft’s declaration of a $60 billion buyback program and a 10% increase in dividends reflected a robust financial posture that buoyed investor sentiment.
In the currency space, the dollar hovered near a year low as market participants awaited the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting with bated breath. The anticipation of rate cuts seemed to be the undercurrent affecting the dollar’s position.
Commodities saw oil prices getting squeezed, possibly due to geopolitical tensions and supply concerns. On the other hand, copper prices enjoyed a lift, buoyed by hopes of economic stimulus measures that could spur demand.
The fixed income market witnessed a rally in Treasuries and European bonds, as investors positioned themselves ahead of the Fed’s rate decision. This cautious optimism was also reflected in the macroeconomic data, with the NY Fed Empire manufacturing index outperforming expectations for September.
In Asia, Hong Kong equities rose, driven by positive sentiment and a successful debut session for Chinese appliance maker Midea in Hong Kong, which raised $4 billion.
The day’s events underscored the interconnectedness of global markets and the delicate balance between corporate developments, macroeconomic indicators, and geopolitical events. As investors navigate these waters, the coming days, especially the FOMC meeting, are likely to shed more light on the direction of global economic policies and their impact on markets worldwide.
