Tonight, one shock after another.
Alphabet plunged more than 13% intraday, wiping out around $500 billion in a single day. Search missed expectations, spending is ramping up, and the software sector is suffering a pileup: ServiceNow -22%, Fortinet -26%, and Caterpillar caught in the crossfire, down 9%. The market is going door to door demanding answers: when will all that AI spending pay off?
A major development that’s easy to miss: ECB President Christine Lagarde has officially announced she’ll resign in February 2027, and the search for a new president starts today. Meanwhile, markets are pricing in an 80% chance of a Fed rate hike in December, with Goldman adding that it may be the last one. Two major central banks changing course at the same time—that’s volatility for days.
Old money goes on-chain, the sequel: Musk reposted news that Druckenmiller invested in ICE+trade[XYZ] to build a US-compliant perpetuals market on Hyperliquid. The OKX joint venture also plans to open a retail channel for US investors. The NYSE’s parent stepping in is a more tangible signal than any candlestick chart.
Good news is scarce in a bear market, but structural change never stops. NFA DYOR
