The AEX is +0.2% after a positive and somewhat lackluster day on Wall Street.
Perhaps the stock market is still waiting for the trigger of the real trend. It could be the next earnings season. Technology, particularly Chinese tech and chip companies, is doing well in today’s Alibaba news and yesterday’s TSMC sales. It is also remarkable that EUR/USD has crossed 1.10 again and interest rates are doing nothing.
- European futures open between +0.1% and +0.5%
- The United States rose 0.2%.
- In Asia, China and Japan rose slightly, but Hong Kong, South Korea and Taiwan came in around +1.5%. The plungers are in good shape after yesterday’s TSMC aftermarket numbers. The SOX finished up 2.1% in New York. Hong Kong benefits from the message that Alibaba’s Ant Group has been fined waivermore below.
Alibaba + 2.1%
Tencent +1.8%
TSMC +2.1%
Samsung + 2.5%
SK Hynix +1.8%
- Volatility (CBOE VIX Index) is +1.6% at 15.1 and BofA MOVE Index (Bond) is +1.0% at 131.7
- The dollar took a hit and is now down 0.1% to 1.1016
- Gold rose 0.2%, Oil rose 0.4%, and the cryptocurrency dropped a few tenths. Bitcoin is now trading at $30,448.85
Interest rates still hold their cards in the face of the fund.
And confirming our initial estimate of 5.7% yoy, our inflation rate remains very high.
Consumer goods and services were 5.7 percent more expensive in June than in the same month a year ago. The decline was mainly attributed to developments in the prices of motor fuels and foodstuffs. More via: https://t.co/QxhFPcKtGt #economic inflation pic.twitter.com/zppz3k2yeH

The Germans have also succeeded, and this time I don’t think anyone would object that we are second behind them again. Tomorrow the Americans will be there with their bloat not doing first estimates.
You can read both Sunday (here) and yesterday (here) here on IEX’s previews of the earnings season with hard data. Like this picture for example, the main point is that the US is much more expensive than the rest, especially the UK, Germany and Hong Kong.
In between, the valuation gap with Wall Street isn’t too bad for AEX. This seems very natural.
So much for hard data. Today Bloomberg is putting out a poor poll and it’s not very positive. And according to positive books, so what?
