Geopolitical tensions were on the headlines yesterday after Ukraine fired its first US missile to Russia after having received the green light from the White House following a two-year wait to do so. Gold and treasuries gained and crude oil jumped but remained short of testing the $70pb offers.
Today, sentiment is better and focus shifts to Nvidia earnings due today, after the closing bell.
The expectations are huge, the valuations are high as well. Nvidia could gain or lose around 8-10% in the aftermath of the earning and trigger a 1-2% rally or selloff in the S&P500.

Gold price moves away from one-week top on rising US bond yields, modest USD strength
Gold price retreats after touching a one-and-half-week top earlier this Wednesday and drops to a fresh daily low, below the $2,630 level heading into the European session.

Why is Bitcoin performing better than Ethereum? ETH lags as BTC smashes new all-time high records
Bitcoin has outperformed Ethereum in the past two years, setting new highs while the top altcoin struggles to catch up with speed.

Sticky UK services inflation to keep BoE cutting gradually
Services inflation is set to bounce around 5% into the winter, while headline CPI could get close to 3% in January. That reduces the chance of a rate cut in December, but in the spring, we think there is still a good chance the Bank of England will accelerate its easing cycle.
