Markets Recap for November 9, 2026
US Stocks Rebound as Nvidia Under Scrutiny
What's in the markets today?
China released inflation data showing the headline consumer price index rose 0.7% from a year earlier in October, down from the previous 0.9%, pointing to slower consumer price growth. Japanese equities rallied strongly, with the Nikkei 225 climbing as investors responded to regional macro data and global sector rotation, particularly in technology shares. WTI crude oil dropped 4.38%, reflecting lower international energy demand expectations and providing relief for import-heavy Asian economies facing recent raw material cost pressures. The Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong edged lower, as Chinese earnings and macro signals weighed on major tech stocks such as Alibaba, which declined against the backdrop of lukewarm domestic demand. Separately, regulators announced an investigation into Nvidia’s CEO involving allegations of an affair with a suspected Chinese spy, prompting headlines about leadership at one of the industry’s most watched AI companies.
Benchmark Moves
The Nikkei 225 climbed 2.33% after China released its October inflation rate at 0.7% year-on-year, signaling steady consumer prices. This removed pressure on costs for Japanese exporters, helping Asian equities rally. Gold also rose 0.97%, with demand for safe assets picking up as Chinese data supported regional growth hopes. The pickup in both equities and gold indicates a broad market environment that supports risk taking across assets.

Key Macroeconomic Reports
China's inflation data showed a year-over-year rate of 0.7%, down from 0.9%, signaling potential economic pressure. The Producer Price Index (PPI) rose to 5.7%, indicating rising production costs despite lower consumer inflation. This mixed signal suggests that while consumer demand may be weakening, production costs are still increasing, complicating the economic outlook. Such dynamics could influence future monetary policy decisions.

If Jensen Huang is removed, the AI trade is in even more trouble
Michael Hartnett suggests that the sell-off in the market may continue, particularly due to concerns surrounding Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang. The situation has raised new fears following Huang's personal issues and a spy investigation. Hartnett, known for accurately predicting midterm outcomes, emphasizes the importance of monitoring key developments. The market has recently avoided escalating tensions in the Middle East, which had been flagged as a potential risk.

Nuno Matos, the CEO of ANZ, is optimistic that his bank's transformation strategy will lead to outperforming competitors by early 2028. This confidence comes after ANZ's full-year results disappointed investors, causing shares to drop by 3.2% to $39.05. Investors expressed concerns over weak momentum in ANZ's second half and squeezed margins in its home lending sector due to intense competition. Matos aims to address these challenges through strategic changes.
