DoorDash, Inc., Arm Holdings plc, and The Walt Disney Company headline a busy Thursday earnings session across tech, consumer, and healthcare sectors.<\/p>\n

Trade Data Shows Mixed Picture<\/p>\n

Economic releases today were led by trade data from the U.S. and Canada. The U.S. trade deficit widened to -$60.1 billion from -$57.3 billion, though it came in slightly better than the -$60.9 billion forecast.<\/p>\n

The widening gap was driven by a larger goods deficit of -$88.7 billion, while the services surplus improved to $28.4 billion. Exports rose to $320.9 billion, but imports increased faster to $381.2 billion, leading to the overall deterioration.<\/p>\n

In contrast, Canada reported a $1.8 billion trade surplus, beating expectations of a -$2.88 billion deficit.<\/p>\n

Services Sector Expands, but Demand Weakens<\/p>\n

ISM non-manufacturing came in at 53.6, close to expectations, signaling continued expansion. However, underlying details showed weakening demand.<\/p>\n

Growth was less broad, with only four industries expanding compared to thirteen previously, while new orders dropped sharply. At the same time, supply constraints persisted, with slower deliveries and elevated backlogs.<\/p>\n

Inflation Pressures Remain Elevated<\/p>\n

Price pressures stayed firm, with the ISM Prices Index holding above 70. Rising costs across commodities such as metals and energy suggest inflation remains persistent, with energy costs not yet fully reflected.<\/p>\n

Labor and Housing Stay Resilient<\/p>\n

JOLTs job openings remained stable, indicating a resilient labor market. New home sales exceeded expectations, although prices declined slightly.<\/p>\n

Markets Reflect Risk-On Sentiment<\/p>\n

The U.S. dollar was mostly weaker, while equities continued to rally. Major indices, including the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Russell 2000, closed at record highs, highlighting sustained investor optimism despite mixed economic signals.<\/p>\n

Last week, markets were quite volatile again, with gold<\/a> soaring to $4,890 but retreating lower this week. EUR\/USD<\/a> slipped below above 1.17 while main indices closed the week higher at new records. The moves weren\u2019t too big though, and we opened 34 trading signals<\/a> in total, finishing the week with 23 winning signals and 9 losing ones.<\/p>\n

Gold Returns to $4,500<\/p>\n

Although demand for safe haven assets is still high, gold fell precipitously from record highs following the Fed\u2019s most recent rate cut comments, as profit-taking was prompted by Powell\u2019s cautious tone. In December, gold jumped above $4,380 following the Federal Reserve\u2019s announcement of a 25 basis point rate decrease. But the impetus soon waned, and prices dropped back to $4,004. The 20o daily SMA (red) held as support this week and buyers returned and pushed XAU above the $4,800 and above the 100 SMA (green).\"Chart<\/p>\n

USD\/JPY Rebounds<\/p>\n

Foreign exchange markets saw sharp swings. Early in the week, U.S. yield differentials and Japanese capital outflows pushed the dollar above \u00a5150, but disappointing U.S. jobs data triggered profit-taking, causing the USD\/JPY to slide by four yen from its peak. However, the new BOJ governor the JPY has weakened and USD\/JPY soared to 154 and we decided to close our buy signal for more than 80 pips<\/a> as the pair found support at the 20 daily SMA (gray) and has rebounded more than 200 pips off that MA but reversed after the 25 bps rate cut from the FED. The price approached $160 but reversed after the BOJ meeting and fell 8 cents but found support at $152 at the 100 daily SMA (red) and rebounded above 156 but have reversed down again this week after the Japanese elections.\"Chart<\/p>\n

Cryptocurrency Update
\nBitcoin Returns Above $80K<\/p>\n

Cryptocurrencies remained highly active over the summer. Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>) climbed to fresh highs of $123,000 and $124,000 in July and August, supported by institutional inflows and technical strength. However, remarks from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent ruling out U.S. increases to BTC reserves triggered a steep pullback, sending the coin down to $80K before finding support at the 100 weekly SMA (green). A rebound followed, sending BTC near $100 is the first major text for Bitcoin buyers. However BTC returned lower and fell below $80K, breaking below the but the 100 weekly SMA (green) but the decline stopped at the $60K support where the 200 weekly SMA (purple) stands and rebounded above $76K but returned to $70K again.<\/p>\n

Ethereum Returns to $2,000<\/p>\n

Ethereum (ETH<\/a>) has been similarly strong, surging toward $4,800, its highest since 2021 and near its all-time peak of $4,860. Despite a dip last week, ETH found support at the 20-day SMA, with retail enthusiasm and renewed institutional participation driving fresh upside momentum.
