SPX DJI NDX Wall Street opens in a cautious mood as futures slip slightly while traders wait for the PCE inflation data, the Federal Reserve’s preferred gauge. The S&P 500 is down about 0.1%, the Dow is also lower by around 0.1%, and the Nasdaq is off roughly 0.15%. Investors are focused on what the next inflation reading will say about the path of interest rates.

$PCE Personal income and spending are expected to rise by 0.4%, while the monthly PCE and Core PCE are forecast to increase by 0.3%. Even small changes matter in a market trying to decide whether a rate cut is close and whether a traditional year end rally can still develop. Consumer confidence is also expected to edge higher to 52.0, slightly up from last month. The balance between easing hopes and inflation fears continues to shape sentiment.

$US10Y Bond yields are part of the tension, with the 10 year yield inching up to about 4.12%. This signals that the bond market is not fully convinced inflation pressure is gone. The dollar moves unevenly against major currencies as traders wait for clearer direction from the data.

$NFLX $WBD Streaming and media stocks move in opposite directions after Netflix announces the acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery in a deal valued at about $82.7 billion, including its film studios and HBO platforms. Netflix shares fall on concern over the cost and complexity of the deal, while Warner Bros. Discovery jumps as investors welcome the premium and strategic exit.

$NVDA The chipmaker continues its upward push and trades above the 184 dollar level after another strong week. Optimism is building on signs that regulatory pressure on chip exports could ease, although rules around China and other regions are still uncertain. The long term AI story remains powerful, but the path will not be smooth.

$INTC Intel attempts a modest recovery after a sharp drop tied to reports of supply shortages in advanced manufacturing processes. Demand for PCs and servers is strong, but production constraints are testing the company at a critical moment.

$TRMB Trimble moves higher after approving a new share buyback program of up to 1 billion dollars. The open ended plan replaces a previous one and signals confidence from management in the company’s long term value.

$VSCO Victoria’s Secret surges in premarket trading after reporting a strong third quarter. Sales climbed 9% to 1.35 billion dollars, driven by solid performance across the Victoria’s Secret, PINK, and Beauty brands as the holiday season approaches.

$LUV Southwest Airlines slips after lowering its outlook due to weaker revenue, government disruption concerns, and higher fuel costs. The company now expects about 500 million dollars in operating profit for 2025, below its previous range.

$BTC Bitcoin resumes a downward trend as miners struggle with rising computing demands and declining rewards. The debate continues over whether stablecoins are a system risk or a future financial bridge, as institutional interest meets macro uncertainty.
