The Market Screener

For a brief moment this week, investors are allowing themselves a small, fragile hope: maybe things aren't getting worse. After a sharp selloff earlier in the week, triggered by Donald Trump's threat to impose tariffs on European allies unless the United States was allowed to buy Greenland, stocks bounced back.Hosted by Audiomeans.

By the time Donald Trump arrived in Davos, nerves were already frayed. What followed was unexpected, to say the least. After insisting he would secure Greenland "the easy way or the hard way," the president abruptly retreated, replacing threats with a hazy promise of a coming "framework." By Wednesday evening, the panic had ebbed. By Thursday morning, investors were behaving as though nothing unusual had occurred, once again.Hosted by Audiomeans.

For a long time, the global economy has rested on a simple assumption: when things get messy, America is the place investors run to, not away from. This week, that assumption started to wobble.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

Donald Trump wants Greenland. Not influence, not cooperation - ownership. And he has paired that demand with something he knows well: tariffs. Lots of them. Against Europe. Against France in particular. Against anyone who might say no. The bond market is starting to get nervous.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

The market's favorite sport right now is rearranging risk and calling it insight. Capital is shuffling between trades with the confidence of a crowd that refuses to miss out but cannot agree on what matters. With a holiday looming, hesitation looks expensive and patience feels unfashionable.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

Investors are rediscovering a basic truth of finance: when too much money piles into the same trade, the exits can feel suddenly narrow. The fashionable word is "rotation". It describes a move away from the largest technology firms towards smaller, cheaper and less glamorous parts of the market. The evidence is hard to miss. America’s biggest tech companies have recently dragged the main indices lower. The Nasdaq 100 has stumbled, and the S&P 500 has dipped, even though most individual stocks have actually been rising. All 11 of the largest American firms by market value fell in the same session.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

The White House is wandering into corners of the economy that were once assumed to be safely boring. Credit cards, housing, drug prices, defence contracts: all now find themselves blinking in the harsh light of executive attention. Investors are discovering that this season's script is more political thriller than financial drama and they've responded with a distinct case of nerve.Hosted by Audiomeans.

If you were hoping for fireworks, today's inflation report was not it. Instead, America got something far more unsettling: numbers that make sense. Prices are cooling, but not enough to let anyone relax.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

The first full trading week of 2026 closed with record highs across global equity indices, even as international relations remain strained. Investors appear increasingly adept at navigating upheaval, while governments are still adjusting to a more unsettled global environment. However, futures took a dive this morning, as tensions between Donald Trump and Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell have spilled into the open.Hosted by Audiomeans.

The first full week of 2026 has been an odd one. Had America not decided to intervene in Venezuela, financial markets might have drifted quietly into the new year with barely a ripple. Instead, investors have been handed a familiar mix: geopolitics stirring trouble, technology losing its shine at the margin, and policymakers once again threatening to pull the rug from under global trade. Investors were left clinging to one reliable compass: the state of the American labour market.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

After a roaring start to the year, it seems something has shifted. A sense of unease has crept in as Washington's intentions - towards friends, rivals and neighbors - grow louder and harder to ignore. America's new interventionism is forcing markets to reprice risk.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

Day by day, it can feel as though the world is edging toward a dystopian script. A grinding war in Ukraine drags on, Venezuela’s strongman has been captured in a show of modern force, and the White House is openly entertaining the idea of using the military to take control of Greenland, a territory belonging to a long-standing ally. This is therefore no surprise that after a record-setting rally that pushed America's main stock indices close to psychologically pleasing milestones - the S&P 500 edging toward 7,000 and the Dow flirting with 50,000 - momentum has begun to wobble. Not collapse. Just wobble. Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

Markets briefly cheered a dramatic arrest, then remembered that oil wells do not refill themselves and wars rarely come with balance-sheet clarity. Energy and defence stocks enjoyed their moment in the sun, while everyone else squinted at commodities, jobs data and central banks for something solid to hold on to. The result is a market caught between bravado and bookkeeping, with enthusiasm running ahead of reality - again.Hosted by Audiomeans.

Washington staged a regime change : markets checked their screens and went back to work. Venezuela's vast oil riches may one day matter again, but for now traders are treating tanks and headlines as background noise. In a world of rate cuts, data drops and earnings season, geopolitics still has to compete for attention, and it is not always winning.Hosted by Audiomeans.

The latest U.S. consumer-price data came in softer than expected. That set off excitement, hope and spreadsheets full of rate-cut fantasies. Markets now put roughly a one-in-four chance on a Federal Reserve cut in January and are almost certain about one by April. Yet the same report came with missing data thanks to a government shutdown and some methodological quirks. Even the banks cheering the number admit it deserves a raised eyebrow.Hosted by Audiomeans.

The long awaited CPI data delivered a good surprise for investors. Inflation did what they  have been begging it to do: it behaved. Prices rose in November, but gently. Headline inflation came in at 2.7% and core inflation at 2.6%. Both were well below expectations (3.1% and 3.0%) Jobless claims, meanwhile, landed exactly where they were supposed to. Nothing overheated.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

For some investors, the economy is cooling just enough to justify lower interest rates. But others say there are stubborn facts: inflation still above target, a global backdrop where other rich countries are talking about tightening, not easing, and a technology boom financed with generous amounts of debt. The result is a market that lurches between hope and worry, sometimes within the same trading session.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

Central bankers have done their part. Markets are now arguing about what it means.Hosted by Audiomeans. Visit audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite for more information.

The Federal Reserve handed investors another rate cut. Wall Street responded by immediately looking for something to worry about. It found plenty. Tech stumbled, geopolitics glowered and commodities misbehaved. And to top it off, fresh economic numbers suggest America's post-pandemic glow-up may be losing its sheen.Hosted by Audiomeans.

Today's Fed meeting is the main focus, as Jerome Powell delivers a speech cut that could either soothe investors or set their hair on fire.Markets are torn between fearing another inflation scare, craving clearer easing signals, and wondering whether the AI boom or political noise will hit them first.Hosted by Audiomeans.
