Today’s Outlook :
• US MARKET : U.S. stocks closed sharply lower on Tuesday. The technology sector came under pressure amid a rotation out of large-cap stocks and several disappointing earnings reports. A bond selloff also weighed on equities, even as gold and silver prices rebounded after steep losses. The Dow Jones fell 0.3% to 49,241.06 (after briefly hitting an intraday record of 49,653.13). The S&P 500 declined 0.9% to 6,917.18, while the NASDAQ slid 1.4% to 23,255.19. Losses deepened in the afternoon after reports that the U.S. shot down an Iranian drone approaching a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier.
U.S. Treasury yields had earlier jumped amid bond selling following strong U.S. manufacturing data on Monday. In contrast, gold and silver rebounded sharply from historic losses.
On the corporate front, SpaceX acquired xAI at a combined valuation of USD 1.25 trillion. A SpaceX IPO could take place as soon as this year; xAI was last valued at USD 230 billion in a January funding round.
Looking ahead, investors are watching upcoming economic data releases and signals from the Federal Reserve regarding interest rates. In Washington, lawmakers are working to pass a funding bill to prevent a partial government shutdown. The BLS stated that the January jobs report will not be released as scheduled due to the funding lapse; other labor market data have also been postponed until federal operations resume.
• EUROPEAN MARKET : European stocks mostly closed lower on Tuesday, although a rebound in precious metals provided some early-session support. Germany’s DAX fell 0.1%, France’s CAC 40 was flat, and the U.K.’s FTSE 100 declined 0.3%.
Data showed inflation in France remained contained. Consumer prices fell 0.3% m/m in January, with annual inflation at just 0.3%, below expectations of 0.6%. The European Central Bank (ECB) is set to hold a policy meeting later this week and is widely expected to keep rates unchanged at 2% for a fifth consecutive meeting.
• ASIAN MARKET : Asian stock markets rebounded sharply on Tuesday, led by South Korea and Japan amid a rally in AI-related stocks, while India surged on a trade deal with the U.S.
India’s Nifty 50 jumped as much as 5% at the open before paring gains. U.S. President Donald Trump announced a trade deal with India that reduces tariffs on Indian goods to 18% from 50%, seen as a step toward normalizing trade relations.
In South Korea, the KOSPI surged nearly 6%, with heavyweights Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix rising 7.5%–8.5% as interest returned to AI-linked stocks. Japan also advanced, with the Nikkei 225 climbing more than 4% on a broad rally in chipmakers and technology shares, aided by a weaker yen.
• COMMODITIES – PRECIOUS METALS: Gold prices rose in early Asian trade on Wednesday, moving back toward key levels amid rising safe-haven demand due to signs of renewed U.S.–Iran tensions. Gains extended after a sharp rebound from recent losses, with dip-buying continuing after a correction of more than USD 1,000 last week. Spot gold rose 0.9% to USD 4,995.60/oz, while April gold futures climbed 1.7% to USD 5,017.19/oz. Other precious metals also advanced: spot silver rose 0.5% to USD 85.52/oz and spot platinum gained 1.7% to USD 2,256.04/oz.
• COMMODITIES – OIL: Oil prices rose about 2% on Tuesday after the U.S. shot down an Iranian drone and armed boats approached a U.S.-flagged vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, raising concerns that efforts to de-escalate U.S.–Iran tensions could be disrupted. Brent rose USD 1.03 (+1.6%) to USD 67.33 per barrel, while U.S. WTI gained USD 1.07 (+1.7%) to USD 63.21 per barrel.
• INDONESIA : The JCI rebounded +2.52% to close at 8,122.6 as pressure began to ease across conglomerate-linked stocks. In addition to stability in classic consumer and big bank names—indicating potential accumulation by Danantara—the tobacco sector also strengthened, led by WIIM. Moreover, buyback actions by conglomerate stocks signal positive catalysts for the JCI, whose performance over the past year has been supported by rotation into conglomerate group stocks. Maintain caution with tight stop-loss and trailingstop levels amid ongoing volatility.
