US Stocks Rally on Tech Earnings

US stocks ended the week strong, buoyed by a rally in mega-cap growth stocks following robust quarterly results from technology heavyweights Alphabet and Microsoft. Alphabet breached the $2 trillion market value mark for the first time since November 2021, as investors cheered the Google parent announcing its first-ever dividend and a $70 billion stock buyback. Richly valued US stocks are leaving investors with little tolerance for disappointment, raising the stakes ahead of a week in which two more technology and growth giants are set to report. Amazon is set to report on Tuesday, and Apple on Thursday.

EUR/USD Appears Ready for a Pullback Due to Inflationary Factors in the USA

EUR/USD has risen approximately 1% this week due to a decline in the dollar, although the euro is trailing behind other pro-cyclical currencies in the G10, excluding the US data-sensitive CAD.

The Trade Idea Generation behind the Long EURUSD on USA CPI

The Trade Idea Generation behind the Long EURUSD on USA CPI

The market is chaotic right now! We’ve seen PPI and CPI behaving completely erratically. On one side, PPI came in much higher, and the USD Index dropped as if there were no tomorrow. Then, yesterday, the CPI came in lower, and the market continued to drop. Something is wrong, isn’t it?
