Israel has confirmed it has struck nuclear sites in Iran overnight but U.S. President Trump says he has not yet made a final decision on whether to join the campaign and will announce his move at short notice.

De europæiske aktiemarkeder står til at åbne ugen neutralt. Aktiekurserne er generelt steget de seneste mange dage både i Europa og USA. Investorerne køber aktier på de mere forsonende toner i toldkrigen og på modstandsdygtige nøgletal. Vi har endnu ikke fået konkrete handelsaftaler, men intet dårligt nyt bliver set som godt nyt lige nu. På onsdag har vi Fed-møde, og så vil EU komme med et forhandlingsudspil på told til USA. I dag får vi ISM service fra USA. MarkedsfokusAktierne er steget ni dage i trækPowell står fast over for TrumpBoE-rentenedsættelse, mens Riksbank og Norges Bank er på hold

The focus this week turns to central banks. We discuss the Fed staying on-hold amid likely more pressures from Trump, and the uncertain outlook for US tax policy which is becoming a top legislative priority. We also discuss our expectations for the Bank of England, Norges Bank and Riksbank which could have diverging decisions but some risk of a dovish tone, as well as Beijing's latest stance on de-escalation and stimulus prospects. All eyes will be on the data to gauge how much of the tariffs are already starting to have an impact, on how these central banks factor in the uncertainty, and on any progress on the trade talks where things also remain influx. Chapters: US (01:56), Europe (10:58), China (14:42), Asia (20:00).

I januar og februar sto rekorder i boligmarkedet for fall, og i årets første måneder steg boligprisene i Norge med hele 6,1 prosent. Samtidig har det vært en stor vekst i omsetningsvolumet.

Og: Er det nå markedet skal kjøles ned i takt med at Norges Bank har utsatt rentenedsettelsen?

Før hadde vi pesten som slo til brått og overraskende og kullkastet livene våre. Nå har vi renten som hopper opp og ikke vil ned igjen og knuser feriedrømmer, boligdrømmer og og regjeringens drøm om gjenvalg. Men burde vi slutte å bry oss så mye om renten som selv sentralbanksjefen ikke har kontroll på? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

El automóvil europeo vive un jueves negro en bolsa.. tras anunciar el presidente Trump aranceles del 25% a todos los vehículos no fabricados en EEUU que entrarán en vigor el próximo 3 de abril. Los expertos de Bankinter señalan que las firmas germanas son las más perjudicadas por la decisión de Trump pues importan buena parte de sus ventas a EEUU desde Europa. El 35% de las ventas de BMW y Volkswagen en EEUU se importan desde el viejo continente, mientras que en Mercedes-Benz, este porcentaje se elevar hasta superar el 50%. El Banco Central de Noruega, el Norges Bank, deja los tipos en el 4,5%. La decisión tomada este jueves de no llevar adelante el recorte de tipos anunciado en enero no ha sido una sorpresa.

Peter Boockvar explains why investors must discard the playbook that has worked for the past few years due to three major shifts: the end of the MAG7 tech trade, potential cuts in government spending, and declining foreign flows into US assets. Boockvar notes that these seven stocks reached 35% of the S&P 500 - exceeding the concentration seen in March 2000 - while becoming a global "reserve currency" with central banks like Norway's Norges Bank and the Swiss National Bank owning billions in shares. He identifies emerging opportunities in international markets, with the German DAX up 17% and Hang Seng up 20% year-to-date, while warning that reduced government spending combined with weakening tech investment creates recession risk. Boockvar believes the Fed has diminished power in a new 3-4% inflation environment, pointing to record copper prices as evidence while noting that US defense manufacturers and technology companies face growing international competition.This episode is sponsored by Monetary Metals.

Kronen har styrket seg mot dollar. Det gir sammen med børsfallet i USA en dobbeltsmell for norske fondssparere. Fallende amerikanske aksjemarkeder, styrket kronekurs og utsatt rentekutt er tema for ukens episode av Finansredaksjonen, en podkast som lages av oss i DN.Hør episoden her:Nordmenn har 212 milliarder kroner plassert i globale aksjefond, ifølge tall fra VFF. Det har gitt veldig god avkastning i veldig mange år, men etter at Donald Trump satt i gang med sin høyst forvirrende tollpolitikk etter nyttår, har aksjemarkedene falt og dollaren svekket seg. Det betyr at norske fondssparere både får svekket børsavkastning og en svekket fondsverdi i norske kroner. En dobbeltsmell der altså. Det er kanskje på tide å se mot Europa – hvor børsene har steget kraftig i troen på at det er her den økonomiske veksten vil komme fremover. Vanligvis vil Oslo Børs bli rammet av nedturen i det amerikanske markedet, men ikke denne gangen. Hovedindeksen er opp syv prosent.Trump skal ikke få hele skylden for at rentekuttet fra Norges Bank ser ut til å utebli, men det er klart at styrket kronekurs er et element som teller når rentekomiteen i Norges Bank samler seg i neste uke. Styrket kronekurs trekker i retning av lavere rente, mens sterke inflasjonstall taler for at Norges Bank ikke rører renten. Det snakker vi om i Finansredaksjonen denne uken. Hosted on Acast.

Svenske Riksbanken er høyst trolig ferdig med å kutte renten og håp om en serie kutt fra Norges Bank har fått et skudd for baugen. Dermed har nordiske eiendomsaksjer fått en treg start på året, men driften er bra, finansieringsmulighetene gode og i sivet lurer store penger som vil gjøre gode kjøp.

Nå nærmer det seg rentekutt i Norges Bank, men det er ikke sikkert at lånerenten din blir lavere.Den amerikanske tiårsrenten fortsetter å stige. Det kan påvirke renten på ditt boliglån. Det snakker vi om i ukens episode av Finansredaksjonen, en podkast som lages av oss i DN. Den amerikanske tiårsrenten er all verdens renters mor, hvis det går an å si. Den er den mest brukte referanse for risikofrirente for en rekke finansielle størrelser.Hvorfor stiger renten nå? Det er tre årsaker, ifølge finansredaktør Terje Erikstad. – For det første fordi den amerikanske økonomien går bra. Det er det positive. Men det negative er at det kan føre til høyere inflasjon og dermed færre rentekutt fra sentralbanken. Renten påvirkes også av usikkerheten om Trumps politikk vil være inflasjonsdrivende, sier han i Finansredaksjonen. Les også: Oppgang på Oslo Børs – markedet rigger seg for amerikanske inflasjonstallBørskommentator Thor Christian Jensen er spent om renten stiger over fem prosent, som vil være et nytt nivå. – Hvem vet hva som vil skje da. Høyere rente legger seg uansett som et vått ullteppe over aksjemarkedet. Konsekvensen for låntakerne i Norge er på kort sikt at fastrentene stiger. På lang sikt kan det gjøre at det blir færre rentekutt fra Norges Bank. Les også: Harald Magnus Andreassen kutter renteprognosen: Tror bare på to kutt i år Hosted on Acast.

The Fed cut rates by 25bps, as expected, to 4.25-4.5% in an 11-1 split, with Hammack voting to leave rates unchanged; the median dot plot for 2025 and 2026 FFR forecasts were lifted above expectations.Fed Chair Powell said the decision was a "closer call", but the "right call", suggesting there was a discussion surrounding holding rates at this meeting, and that "extent and timing language" shows Fed is at or near the point of slowing rate cuts, and the slower pace of cuts reflects expectation. APAC stocks traded with losses across the board amid the fallout from the hawkish Fed, as sentiment from Wall Street reverberated to the region.BoJ maintained its rate at 0.25% as expected, with an 8-1 vote; Board Member Tamura dissented, advocating for a 25bps hike to 0.50%; eyes on Governor Ueda's presser.European equity futures are indicative of a softer open following the late selling stateside, with the Euro Stoxx 50 future -1.6% after cash closed +0.3% on Wednesday.

Wall Street closes at record highs following Donald Trump's historic win to become the 47th U.S. President. The Dow rallies by 1,500 points thanks to bank stocks after Democratic nominee Kamala Harris concedes the election. In Germany the fragile governing ‘traffic light' coalition collapses as Chancellor Olaf Scholz fires Finance Minister Christian Lindner over major economic policy disagreements.

Bruce Kasman is joined by Joe Lupton to discuss how the Fed will take center stage in a week marked by a number of significant central bank decisions that don't revolve around a common theme. We anticipate a 50bp rate cut from the FOMC as it responds to a material shift in risk bias. At the same time, we expect the BoE to follow the ECB in guiding toward a cautious rate normalization path while we anticipate the BoJ will continue to emphasize further rate hikes lie ahead. We also see Norges Bank on hold, an easing from SARB, and a tightening from Brazil's BCB.   This podcast was recorded on 9/13/2024. This communication is provided for information purposes only.

Pardalote Consulting - https://www.pardaloteconsulting.comWeather Guard Lightning Tech - www.weatherguardwind.comIntelstor - https://www.intelstor.com Allen Hall: I'm Allen Hall, president of Weather Guard Lightning Tech, and I'm here with the founder and CEO of IntelStor, Phil Totaro, and the chief commercial officer of Weather Guard, Joel Saxum.

Norway's sovereign wealth fund, Norge's Bank Investment Management, has committed one billion dollars Billion dollars to Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners fifth flagship renewable energy fund, CIV. The fund invests in offshore and onshore wind, solar farms, grid and distribution, and also storage. Investments will be equally split between North America, Western Europe, and developed countries in Asia Pacific. But why is Norway putting a billion dollars into CIP? What's the plan for that fund? Philip Totaro: It's a good question, Allen. I, I think Nordisk Bank has actually had a fairly decent track record of diverting some funds and, and investing them into renewables funds. Including some much smaller previous investments in with CIP and, and other project development companies or investors in, in renewables. The reason that they're doing it is because and again, as you mentioned, this is the sovereign wealth fund of Norway. They're really just looking to diversify their investment stream beyond just oil and gas. And so I, I don't know what led them to this relationship with CIP to say, you know what, billion dollars, here you go. But that's that's a lot of money and a lot of trust in being able to invest it and, and see a return that I'm sure Norges Bank is, is looking for. Joel Saxum: Yeah, I think it's stable cash looking for a stable investment. And right now you, as you seen the big, the black rocks and the other pension funds these, what would be the equivalent of the size of like the sovereign wealth fund of Norway, putting money into renewables and into infrastructure for the future. Something to remember here is that CIP, the directors of CIP, and the direction of that company, they're all ex Ørsted. So when you see CIP and Orsted kind of playing in the same arenas, it's because they're from the same stock. So, but one of the things that CIP does is they do and I like the way they're spreading this fund around, but they do do a lot of work in the APAC region and other places around the world. So not only are you geographically diversifying your investment but putting it in infrastructure as well. Allen Hall: Turkish company Fortis Energy and Power China. I've signed an agreement to cooperate on the development and construction of over 850 megawatts of new solar and wind projects in Serbia and Southeast Europe. The partnership aims to support the region's transition to greener and more sustainable energy. Fortis is currently developing 509 megawatts of wind farms in Serbia. For which it recently secured permits. All right, Phil, we've seen a lot of action with Turkey and China,

US futures are indicating a slightly positive open today. European equity markets are trading firmer, while Asian markets have finished mostly higher. Market attention is focused on the softer-than-expected US CPI data, which has reinforced expectations for a potential September Fed rate cut. Core inflation is down to its lowest annualized level since early 2021. Eyes are now on today's July retail sales and Walmart earnings for further indications on the health of the US consumer and the potential implications for the ongoing soft- vs. hard-landing debate. In Europe, Bank of England rate cut expectations have risen due to softer-than-expected inflation. Later today, the Norges Bank is expected to announce its policy decision, with markets anticipating the rate will remain at 4.5%.Companies Mentioned: T-Mobile US, Arm Holdings, INTC, NVIDIA, XPO Inc.
