Global events/updates
- The U.S. Fed’s 25 bps rate cut, with more likely this year, allows Asian central banks to ease policy amid trade challenges and slowing global growth. Unlike the Fed, Asia benefits from lower inflation and stable growth, supporting a longer easing cycle. However, China and Japan are keeping rates unchanged, signaling a cautious stance.
- Japan’s inflation eased in August, with headline inflation falling to 2.7% from 3.1% in July, the lowest since November 2024. Core-core inflation, closely tracked by the BOJ, also dipped slightly to 3.3%. A major relief came from rice prices, which surged at a slower pace of 69.7% compared to 90.7% in July.
- Nvidia acknowledged rising competition after Huawei launched its powerful AI cluster in China. Huawei claims the new supernodes will dominate global computing power for years, though some experts warn its capabilities may be overstated. Still, analysts stress that Huawei’s ambition to emerge as a global AI leader is real and poses a strong challenge.
- Foreign investors are pulling money out of the Indian stock markets while actively chasing IPOs. In 2024, they withdrew $20.7 billion from secondary markets but pumped $4.8 billion into fresh listings. The reason is clear IPOs delivered strong 37.1% returns, far outperforming the broader market’s modest 7%, making them a more attractive bet.
- Nvidia has spent over $900 million in cash and stock to bring in Enfabrica CEO Rochan Sankar, other employees, and license the startup’s technology. This move, similar to acquihire deals by Google and Meta, highlights Nvidia’s aggressive push in AI. Notably, Nvidia had already invested in Enfabrica during its $125 million funding round in 2023.
