Top Stories

NVDA Rises on Report of Export-Compliant China Chip, Another Rally for DJT?

Futures are trading higher as investors evaluated the implications of President Joe Biden's decision to exit the presidential race. Trump-linked stocks like Trump Media & Technology Group and Phunware saw gains, while most U.S. Treasury yields, including the 10-year, declined. Market participants are preparing to digest a host of economic data prints this week, including the quarterly GDP growth estimate for Q2 on Thursday and the PCE price index, the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, on Friday. The PCE data could be especially important ahead of the July FOMC meeting, which is scheduled for next week. Earnings from tech heavyweights like Tesla and Alphabet are also on the docket for this week.

In The News

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA)

+1.87%

Trading higher premarket after Reuters reported that the company is developing a version of its new "Blackwell" AI chips for the China market that will comply with U.S. export controls, with plans to work with Chinese distributor Inspur for its launch and distribution. The "B20" chip, part of the series set for mass production later this year, is expected to be significantly faster than its predecessor.

Tesla Inc (TSLA)

+1.08%

CEO Elon Musk announced that the company will have humanoid robots, called Optimus, in low production for internal use next year, with high production for other companies expected by 2026. These robots, developed to address labor shortages and perform repetitive or dangerous tasks in various industries, have been in development for several years by companies like Honda and Hyundai's Boston Dynamics. Tesla is scheduled to report earnings after the bell on Tuesday, July 23.

CrowdStrike Holdings (CRWD)

-3.96%

Trading lower premarket after Piper Sandler cut its price target for the stock from $400 to $310. The analyst cited the aftermath from last week’s global tech outage, which occurred amid a CrowdStrike update, as the reason for the price target decrease.

Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT)

+0.60%

Trading lower premarket following its earnings report, with quarterly operating revenue of $32.8 billion falling short of the estimated $33.063 billion.

American Airlines Group Inc (AAL)

-1.23%

Tilray Brands Inc (TLRY)

+3.35%

Trading higher premarket after announcing that its German facility, Aphria RX GmbH, has received the first new cannabis cultivation license under Germany's new Cannabis Act, MedCanG.
