Today’s Highlights
Tech stocks led US markets higher on Thursday, driven by positive news from the semiconductor sector and strong economic data [note that we believe the economic data was terrible]. TSMC’s (TSM) upbeat outlook eased concerns about AI chip demand, lifting semiconductor stocks: TSMC reported a 54% jump in quarterly profit, beating estimates. The company raised its 2024 revenue growth forecast, citing surging AI demand. TSMC’s shares rose about 10%, pushing its market value over $1 trillion. Other chip stocks like Arm, Broadcom, and Nvidia gained over 2%. Nvidia (NVDA) shares reached an all-time intraday high: The stock hit a new record of $140.89 during trading. Nvidia closed up 0.89% at $136.93. The company’s 52-week high is now $195.95, 47.7% above the current price. The Dow Jones Industrial Average reached a new record close. The S&P 500 briefly touched an intraday record before closing slightly lower.
Click here to read our current Economic Forecast – October 2024 Economic Forecast: One More Recession Flag Removed Yet Little Headway On Inflation
Today’s Economic Releases Compiled by Steven Hansen, Publisher:
Advance estimates of U.S. retail and food services sales for September 2024 is down 0.03% year-over-year (down 1.1% year-over-year inflation adjusted) if non-seasonally adjusted data is used. For whatever reason, the release says sales were up 1.7% year-over-year using seasonally adjusted data. When you calculate a year-over-year change, non-seasonally adjusted data is used because it is compared to the same month one year ago. This raises a flag that the seasonal adjustment being used is significantly wrong. Further food for thought is that U.S. Census is the only source that uses seasonally adjusted data to calculate year-over-year growth. The bottom line is that retail sales in the U.S. is far from excellent. The poor sales can be attributed to declines in car sales and gasoline.
Industrial production (IP) in September 2024 is down 0.6% year-over-year with its components manufacturing down 0.5% year-over-year, mining down 2.2%, and utilities up 0.6%. Interestingly, capacity utilization is up 1.2% year-over -year which implies that some manufacturing capacity has been destroyed. And like a broken record, manufacturing remains in a recession in the U.S.
The Philly Fed October 2024 Manufacturing Business Outlook Survey current general activity, new orders, and shipments all rose, with the latter two returning to positive territory this month. Surveys are a crude tool and the variation month-to-month pretty much warns the reader about accuracy issues. This particular survey tends to be more optimistic than the other manufacturing surveys. I maintain manufacturing remains in a recession in the U.S. – and the Industrial Production release above should confirm this.
In the week ending October 12, the advance figure for seasonally adjusted initial unemployment claims 4-week moving average was 236,250, an increase of 4,750 from the previous week’s revised average. The previous week’s average was revised up by 500 from 231,000 to 231,500. This data is not recessionary and the rise in the unemployment numbers reflect the impact of the recent hurricanes.

Kazakhstan’s Major Nuclear Power DilemmaWith the result of Kazakhstan’s controversial nuclear power referendum being a resounding “yes,” attention now turns to which country will build the facility. Kazakhstan’s government has spoken in favor of an international consortium of nuclear energy companies taking up the task while noting that a final decision will not be made until next year. But if Kazakhstan were to ignore Russia’s Rosatom completely, it would be bucking a global trend.

How High Import Tariffs Could Have A Negative Impact on U.S. OilAt campaign rallies, Republican Presidential Nominee Donald Trump promises to lower energy costs for American families and secure the nation’s “energy superpower” status through a combination of a deregulation agenda for domestic oil and gas industry and protectionist trade policies. “My goal will be to cut your energy costs in half within 12 months after taking office,” Trump said at a Michigan rally in August. “We can do that!” But some in the industry are skeptical. U.S. presidents can certainly encourage… Read more at: https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/How-High-Import-Tariffs-Could-Have-A-Negative-Impact-on-US-Oil.html |

UK Targets Russia’s Shadow Fleet With New Oil Tanker SanctionsThe UK on Thursday imposed the largest round of sanctions to date against Russia’s shadow fleet, designating additional 18 oil tankers and four LNG tankers as it seeks to cut critical revenues for Vladimir Putin.

Local media outlet De Moine Register reported a new round of layoffs will total about 287 workers from two Deere factories.

Chinese Stocks Tumble After Latest Round Of Property Stimulus Is A DudAfter a brief burst of hope that Beijing had finally learned its lesson to not parade with fake “big bazookas” meant to simply boost its stock market for a few days (allowing members of the nomenklatura to sell their holdings into the spike) but to follow through forcefully and with resolve, we regret to inform readers that nothing at all has changed, and China has fallen into the old pattern of pretending it is stimulating the economy, and traders pretending they are willing to invest in its stock market. The latest example of this toxic loop was on exhibit earlier today when China’s policymakers rolled out the latest stimulus aimed at boosting the country’s sluggish property sector, and yet just like all recent previous ones, the measures fell far short of hopes for more specific liquidity support. In today’s highly-anticipated press conference from MOHURD, jointly with MOF, MNR, PBOC and NFRA, authorities unveiled plans to fast-track credit for struggling property developers, and aim to renovate 1 million apartments in so-called urban shantytowns, a strategy used during the prior real-estate slump. Additionally, China will deploy more funds for housing projects on the government’s “white list,” with 4 trillion yuan ($550 billion) in loans to be available by the end of this year, Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development Ni Hong said, urging banks to lend to as many projects as possible. Projects on Beijing’s “white list” are eligible for government-back … Read more at: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/chinese-stocks-tumble-after-latest-round-property-stimulus-dud |

Zelensky Unveils ‘Victory Plan’ But No Sign It Has Support From The WestAuthored by Dave DeCamp via AntiWar.com, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the Ukrainian parliament on Wednesday and unveiled his so-called “victory plan,” but there’s no sign any of Ukraine’s Western backers will support his proposals. Zelensky’s plan includes five points and three classified sections that he did not make public. The plan is essentially a list of demands that Zelensky has been making of the US and NATO for months. He claimed that if the plan was implemented, Ukraine “may be able to end the war no later than next year.”
