Wall St closed higher on Tuesday as investors overlooked government shutdown fears to post an unusually strong month of September. The Dow Jones rose 0.18% to close at a fresh record high while the Nasdaq added 0.31% and the S&P500 ended the day up 0.41%.With a potential government shutdown looming, investors have been wary about a slowing labour market, the risk of stagflation and elevated stock valuation, so although government shutdowns aren't usually market-moving events, this time we could see market movements as a result.

Materials and industrials stocks bucked the trend yesterday to close higher while energy stocks were the hardest hit amid declining oil prices.Ms Bullock said market services inflation remains sticky and has been a key sticking point for the RBA's rate journey over the last year adding to the difficult decisions made around Australia's rate outlook pathway. For this reason, the RBA was content in holding the cash rate at the conclusion of yesterday's meeting for the period ahead.Seven West Media (ASX:SWM) and Southern Cross Media (ASX:SXL) shares rose over 7% and over 6% respectively yesterday on news of a proposed merger between the Australian media giants, while Restaurant Brands New Zealand soared almost 60% after receiving a takeover offer from its majority shareholder, Finaccess Restauracion, a Mexican company.What to watch today:On the commodities front this morning, oil is trading 1.5% lower at US$62.51/barrel, gold is up 0.33% at yet another record US$3845.83/ounce and iron ore is trading 0.09% lower at US$105.35/tonne.The Aussie dollar has further strengthened against the greenback overnight to buy 66.16 US cents, 97.82 Japanese Yen, 49.17 British Pence and 1 New Zealand dollar and 14 cents.Ahead of the midweek trading session the SPI futures are anticipating the ASX will open the day down 0.12%. Trading ideas:Bell Potter has increased the 12-month price target on Pantoro (ASX:PNR) from $2.15 to $2.80 and maintain a hold rating on the diversified mining services group as shares have climbed 130% in one year but some key catalysts and tailwinds including the gold price and new contract wins, are driving a strong growth outlook for the company which led the analyst to increase the 12-month PT and maintain a hold.And Trading Central has identified a bearish signal on Infratil (ASX:IFT) following the formation of a pattern over a period of 54-days which is roughly the same amount of time the share price may fall from the close of $10.73 to the range of $9.40 to $9.70 according to standard principles of technical analysis.

Ce matin, les marchés naviguent à vue. En Europe, le STOXX 600 glisse vers un plus bas de 3 semaines, pénalisé par la santé et l'industrie. Le Royaume-Uni inquiète après une adjudication de gilts ratée, preuve que la confiance des investisseurs reste fragile. Christine Lagarde, de son côté, maintient le cap : l'inflation reste alimentée par l'énergie et les salaires, pas question de baisser la garde.Aux États-Unis, Jerome Powell souffle le chaud et le froid. Il reconnaît que le marché du travail ralentit, mais rappelle que l'inflation est encore trop élevée pour baisser franchement les taux. Ajoutons à ça une remarque sur des valorisations actions jugées « trop hautes »… et les indices prennent froid. Tout le monde attend maintenant le PCE, l'indicateur d'inflation préféré de la Fed, qui pourrait redistribuer les cartes dans les prochaines séances. Le dollar, lui, flambe : plus haut de 2 semaines.Côté santé / pharma, la tension monte. Eli Lilly attaque frontalement le Royaume-Uni, accusant sa politique de prix d'être la pire d'Europe.

This episode delves into the world of European dividends and the specialized futures and options markets used to trade them. Host Mark Longo is joined by Dr. Russell Rhoads (Indiana University), Lorena Dishnica (Head of Dividend Products, Eurex), and Sahand Taghizadeh (Head of Investable Stocks Benchmarks, STOXX). Key Differences: Unlike the U.S. with its quarterly payments and buyback culture, Europe favors annual dividends, with a "dividend season" in spring/summer. Dividend Futures: Eurex pioneered a listed market for dividend derivatives in 2008. These products allow traders to isolate and hedge dividend risk, which is a key need for banks that issue structured products. Analyzing the Market: The most liquid contracts are the annual Decembers. They can be used to gauge the market's fundamental outlook, as their prices are sensitive to corporate cash flow forecasts and macroeconomic events. The Curve: The European dividend futures curve often shows a downward slope, known as backwardation, reflecting the heavy hedging activity. Listener Question: A listener asks about smaller contract sizes. While dividend futures are not yet micro-sized, the options on them offer a way for traders to manage their capital commitment.

Je hoeft nooit te wachten tot je Bitcoins mag kopen. Dat kan 24 uur per dag, 365 dagen per jaar. Maar voor Amsterdam Bitcoin Treasury Strategy mag je gewoon wachten totdat het Damrak open gaat. Toch is AMBTS niets meer dan een pot Bitcoins, in het leven geroepen door cryptoplatform Amdax. De ambitie is om 1 procent van alle Bitcoins op te kopen en ze vervolgens op de Amsterdamse beurs te laten verhandelen door pensioenfondsen en andere institutionele beleggers die formeel geen toestemming hebben om hun geld in cryptovaluta te steken. Puik idee? Laat idee? Zoveelste voorbeeld van cryptopotten, waarvan er al honderden bestaan op aarde? Of toch een voorbeeld van de democratisering van de cryptomarkten? U mag het zeggen. Verder praten we over Apple, dat marktaandeel verliest aan Samsung in de VS. De vouwbare telefoons zijn hot en de iPhone verliest terrein. Moet Apple ook in de vouwtelefoons stappen? En waar blijft die AI-strategie eigenlijk? Robbert Manders van Antaurus Europe Fund buigt zich over de strategie van de reus uit Cupertino. Ook bespreken we het voorzichtige herstel van zowel Adyen als Novo Nordisk. Beide brekebeentjes hebben de wind in de rug. Adyen krijgt misschien lagere koersdoelen, maar de koopadviezen van analisten blijven staan. En Novo Nordisk ziet het zoveelste multifunctionele medicijn: afslankprik Wegovy is goedgekeurd voor een heftige leveraandoening. Tot slot valt ook het woord 'AI' weer in de uitzending.
