The AEX indication is -0.8%, because there was one get lost Fed last night. That is for the right reasons, but it is not convenient for the stock market.
The economy is doing better than expected… creating inflationary pressure. It is a simple lesson from basic economics textbooks and it was the message from the Fed yesterday with the interest rate decision. No new quarter, but that could still come and don’t count on interest rate cuts for the time being, the central bank said.
Because the fight against inflation will continue until it falls back to 2%. So a hawk decides, causing shares in general and growth in particular to fall (something to do with valuations and interest rates) and the dollar and US interest rates to rise. Say it: defensive and financials versus growth and cyclical today on the Damrak?
European futures open between -0.3% in Milan and -1.0% in Paris. The American futures are -0.2% (Dow Jones) and -0.4% (Nasdaq 100) and Asia is in really bad shape. China and India are still at -0.6%, but Japan, Korea and Taiwan contribute 1.2% to 1.5% in Alibaba -2.2% Tencent -1.9% TSMC -1.5% Samsung – 1.0% Volatility (CBOE VIX Index) is +7.3% at 15.1 and the BofA MOVE Index (bonds) is -4.2% at 97.0 The dollar rises 0.2% to 1.0639 Gold drops 0.1%, oil loses 0.6% and crypto has to make do with 0.2% less. Bitcoin is now at $27,090.55
Interest rates are rising again – the US is showing a big new top – and the Bund doesn’t dare yet?
Here you see the US ten-year yield, new top. Just like the two-year-olds. We will see how much upside room (expensive) shares have with those higher interest rates. Today we may also read from the Philadelphia Fed Index for September that the American economy is doing better?
Read our own report on the Fed interest rate decision.

The crux is here, see the new economic estimates from the Fed itself here. It’s about that left column, see how the estimates have changed compared to June. Mainly GDP, but therefore also higher inflation. Please note, this is not a timetable, but guesswork.
Another picture, expectations for the next Fed interest rate decisions have increased slightly. This is for January next year with the highest estimates now. A narrow majority still does not expect an extra quarter.
The British, Swiss, Turkish and Norwegian central bank interest rate decisions today, especially those in London, are attracting attention. After the better-than-expected inflation figures for August yesterday, the market is doubtful about a new penny The Auld Lady of Threadneedle Streetthat you are below.
Then there was a stock market debutant on the NYSE at $30 per share, Klavoyo: +9.2%. Instacart closed -10.7% at $30.10, a duppie higher than its introductory price on Tuesday. Arm fell 4.1% to $52.91, which is no longer $2 above the IPO price of $51 exactly a week ago.
There is hardly any news and agenda on the Damrak. And the AEX? That continues sideways, or will we see a lower intraday bottom today? On August 18 it was 729.10.
