Welcome to this week’s AHR market review for the week ending 20th October 2024.
Equity markets edged higher over the week as investors navigated a mixed bag of corporate earnings from the US, a rate cut by the European Central Bank (ECB), and a drop in UK inflation.
Nvidia, one of the globe’s top chipmakers, saw its share price surge to an all-time high, pushing its market value to an eye-watering $3.4 trillion.
As anticipated, the ECB lowered its key deposit rate by 25 basis points to 3.25%, marking the first back-to-back rate cut in 13 years.
In the UK, softer-than-expected inflation figures and a dip in wage growth have fuelled speculation that the Bank of England (BoE) will move to cut rates again, with a further 0.25% almost guaranteed at the upcoming November meeting.
Meanwhile, the latest data out of China painted a mixed picture.
US equities rose almost 1% over the week, led by the energy and utilities sector.
