Markets bounced this week—S&P up 1.86%, Nasdaq 2.24%, Dow 1.70%—thanks to easing U.S.-China TENSIONS and solid Q3 earnings. Gold hit a record high (+5%), while oil and gas slipped. U.S. regional banks took a knock from FRAUD-related loan issues, and the Fed hinted at rate cuts DUE to weak labour data. Tech and comms led gains; energy lagged. Globally, emerging markets OUTPERFORMED, and the dollar softened. Mzansi JOINED the rally: the JSE surged, gold miners SOARED, but MASKED the local stagnant economy. CAUTION remains with the U.S. shutdown and global RISKS still in play.
