Good omen for #inflation producer prices fall for the first time since 2020. Producer prices are seen as a harbinger of actual inflation; if producers produce more cheaply, this also depresses the inflation rate in the future. Compared with the previous year, producer prices have fallen by 6.0%, significantly more than the assumed 5.1%.

Poor purchasing managers' index figures, a clear signal of recession. The index plummeted to 44.7 points. Expected was only a decline to 48.3 points. In particular, the service sector sags more than expected, so far poor industrial data could be compensated here.

Inflation is also coming back in Japan 🇯🇵. The increase was still at 2.8% year-on-year. The expected figure was 2.9%. The whole thing is remarkable, because the Japanese central bank has changed virtually nothing in the interest rate level.

Powell emphasizes at the Jackson Hole meeting that there could be another interest rate hike, but that they want to proceed 'cautiously'. Basically, nothing new in the communication. The market is sold off a bit, it was probably hoped that interest rate cuts would also be discussed.

HOLY. SHIT.

I dodged a bullet. Sold yesterday with -10%, currently it would be -46% (!)

Proof picture for those who don't believe my timing: https://imgur.com/a/jEWteHn

I can't believe how lucky I was. Sold Foot Locker yesterday because it briefly slipped below support, because I didn't necessarily want to hold through earnings and because I'd rather buy more CROX. In hindsight a VERY smart decision, uff.

Absolutely bullish chart, textbook. Perfect double bottom formed, the two green arrows mark the low, double bottom confirmed with yesterday's candle, now rising again.

Bought in the pre-market and it is shooting straight up. Significantly higher prices possible with the setup. If it also cracks $49 there is room up to $56 which would be 20%.

Curevac ($CVAC (+3,79 %)) - The biotech company's third-quarter revenue increased 463 percent year-over-year to 29.3 million euros. The increase in revenue was mainly due to collaborations with British pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline ($GSK), the Tuebingen-based company said. However, Curevac's operating loss increased from 36.7 million euros to 143.1 million euros compared to the same period last year. This was due to high research and development costs for the company's own Covid-19 vaccine candidate, it said.

Alibaba ($2RR (-2,85 %)) - There was no clear trend on the Asian stock markets on Thursday. In Japan, the Topix and the 225-stock Nikkei index gained 0.4 percent. The index of the most important companies in Shanghai and Shenzen could also gain 0.2 percent. Hong Kong's benchmark Hang Seng index, however, lost 1.8 percent as disappointing figures from Chinese tech giant Alibaba weighed heavily on the index. Inflation data from Japan showed consumer price inflation rose 0.1 percent in October, in line with advance expectations.

U.S. Constitution - The online group "ConstitutionDAO" planned to buy the last privately owned edition of the U.S. Constitution at a public auction at Sotheby's on Thursday and failed. Instead, the edition was bought at auction by an unknown bidder for $41 million. Project participants began banding together as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) just a week ago to pool funds for the auction. Through Juicebox, more than $49 million in Ethereum donations ($ETH (-0,26 %)) was collected. In return, the 17,437 supporters received governance tokens called PEOPLE, which were not intended to represent fractional ownership, but rather to allow token owners to decide on proposals for structure, governance, and operational direction.
