Nvidia (NVDA) shares closed slightly lower on Friday following a Reuters report that the chipmaker has to delay the launch of its AI-focused chip for China, one that was specifically designed to comply with US restrictions on certain chips being exported to the country. Constellation Research Founder and Principal Analyst R “Ray” Wang explains that “it’s not easy to get a chip out there. It’s not easy to get a chip certified.” Wang tells Yahoo Finance Live that though this delay could leave an opening for Huawei, given how long it takes to develop a chip, it’s going to be just as hard for other rivals to get into the […]

Stocks: ‘We’re seeing a market that is composed of the best of times,’ strategist says

More Wall Street strategists are getting increasingly bullish on the stock market with S&P 500 (^GSPC) point targets of 5,000 in 2024. Simplify Asset Management Chief Strategist Michael Green tells Yahoo Finance that inflows into equity assets don’t “feel like a renewed outbreak of optimism” as traders become overinvested to cover short positions. “Most people that are in this situation will acknowledge that a lot of this is simply a function of mechanical flows that are either occurring due to passive investments or systematic and algorithmically-driven strategies — there’s very little thought that seems to be going in,” Green explains. #WallSt #wallstreet #yahoofinance Subscribe to Yahoo Finance: https://yhoo.it/2fGu5Bb About Yahoo […]

Fed rate outlook: ‘We’ve gotten some signs things are cooling,’ strategist says

Fed FOMC meeting minutes reinforce cautious pause on interest rates as inflation cools but economic risks pervade. RBC Capital Markets Head of Rates Strategy Blake Gwinn says stock markets sold off early in 2023 on inflation and supply worries, but the second half of the year data showed progress — especially on CPI (Consumer Price Index) prints — which he says “[changes] the context.” Investors still expect future rate cuts as conditions improve, which Gwinn agrees with but emphasizes persisting uncertainties. Gwinn believes the economy’s resilience may force the Fed to “proactively” ease tightness before a hard landing scenario appears on the horizon. Gwinn notes better data has shifted views […]

Mortgage rates fall for 4th straight week

Mortgages rates have fallen for the fourth week in a row. The average rate for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is down to 7.29%, according to Freddie Mac. That rate is still higher than it was a year ago, but it has been enough to lure some buyers back into the market, with the Mortgage Brokers Association reporting an uptick in mortgage applications. So what does this all mean for 2024? Morgan Stanley economists say there are a lot of factors that will be driving the housing market next year, but their base case is that home prices will fall 3% if mortgage rates come down.
