Big Tech hit by fears of potential recession Last year, there was a huge amount of caution around the US Big Tech stocks, many of which demonstrated considerable levels of volatility on New York's premier stock exchanges. There were several periods in which stocks in some of the most well recognized publicly listed technology firms decreased in value tremendously. That has all gone relatively quiet, especially in the light of the current volatility in the currency markets as the US Dollar remarkably holds its strength over a weak Pound. Today, however, the US big tech stock debacle has come to light again, with Microsoft and Alphabet (Google) having reported that they have experienced downturns in sales, which adds further weight to the speculation that the Western economy in general is looking at further downturns. Alphabet (Google) has been cutting its advertising budget, and the resultant 6% rise in sales in the 3 months neding September 30 this year is a damp squib. In fact, this is the slowest quarterly growth since before March 2020 for Alphabet. Microsoft has also stated that demand for its hardware and software has weakened over the same period, with sales having increased by 11% to $50.1bn, marking its slowest revenue growth in five years. Costs for US tech giants have been a major stumbling block recently, as the strong US Dollar against depreciating majors in Europe and Japan have resulted in a very high cost of doing business overseas. Profits at Alphabet dropped nearly 30% to $13.9bn in the quarter, as YouTube (also owned by Alphabet alongside Google) advertising revenues declined for the first time since the firm started to report them publicly. Interestingly, Microsoft stock has been doing well until this announcement came to light. It is currently at 1.38% over its close yesterday, and up 5.76% over the five day average, however there is a prediction by Google Finance that it may not hold that way. It's a similar story for Alphabet (Google) stock which closed 1.9% up over yesterday's close, with a prediction of some volatility ahead. Time will tell of course, however these figures are being considered by many news sources as a marker of weak performance and therefore have led to cautiousness in the markets.

Currency roller coaster continues as GBP see-saws on Boris Johnson exit The famous British sense of humor has made its presence felt at a time of despair once again, with pictures circulating the internet of 10 Downing Street, the Prime Minister's residence, with a revolving door superimposed instead of its famous black wooden effort. This symbolizes the unusually short periods in office held by premiers that are being perceived by the public in an ordinarily utterly stable country. Since Liz Truss left office after just 44 days as Prime Minister following Boris Johnson's dishonorable exit from office, her only legacy being a disastrous budget which temporary chancellor Jeremy Hunt reversed, the continual downward movement of the British Pound against the Euro and US Dollar that has been evident for many months turned into volatility as a result of suspense and uncertainty. Over the months which led to the end of Boris Johnson's premiership, the British economy tanked and the Pound devalued consistently, and suddenly dived further when Liz Truss took office. When she left, Boris Johnson resurfaced, claiming that he was eligible to return to office, with 102 votes in favor of his re-appointment as Prime Minister. Late last night, however, Mr. Johnson announced that he would not be returning to office. This changing set of events has caused the British Pound to 'see-saw' in value, gaining as much as 0.9% to hit a high of $1.1401, before paring gains to be up about 0.4% at $1.134. Britain's credit rating has been affected by the political misadventures that have led the country to economic crisis, and the apparent instability of the current government. Moody's, a respected global credit and referencing agency, has downgraded the UK's outlook from 'stable' to 'negative'. Gilt and sterling markets were turbulent towards the end of last week as investors considered the leadership race, and whilst Mr. Johnson claimed he had 102 votes, opponents expressed their doubt that he had more than 50. All the while, it is important to note that the UK has had a new head of state, King Charles, and an entire new government, and now potentially two new Prime Ministers, all having taken place without one single free vote being cast by the public. With the Pound so volatile and the economy in disarray, the markets are responding appropriately - with caution - and therefore volatility is abound whenever yet another twist or turn takes place.

UK inflation officially goes over 10% During the last year in which many Western nations have experienced high levels of inflation, there have been official figures which have been relatively conservative estimates, and unofficial figures which have suggested that inflation in the United States and Britain has been into double digits for quite some time. It is, however, the official figures which tend to have an impact on the currency and stock markets, therefore today's revelation that the British economy has begun to experience 10.1% inflation is of great interest. The news channels this morning were quick to highlight the inflation level going over the 10% threshold, however very little effect has been shown with relation to the value of the British Pound against the Euro or US Dollar. This is perhaps because the anticipation has been steadily building over time, hence this is perhaps not a surprise, and generally it is surprises that tend to create sudden volatility in the financial markets. What it does depict is that double digit levels of inflation in the UK have been reached, and this is not a good sign for the economy which continues to decline. The British Pound today remains at around 1.12 against the US Dollar, continuing its low value which, despite a few small movements upwards over recent days, represents a steady decline over the past weeks which followed a long period of rapid depreciation. What we perhaps can learn is that despite the new Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt having almost completely reversed the mini-budget issued by recently installed Prime Minister Liz Truss, a clear sign of an unstable government and a weakening economy, the Pound has not suddenly crashed to even lower levels. Perhaps it has bottomed out, or investors and traders have understood that the declining economy and suddenly unstable government in a usually extremely stable and calm nation is now a relatively long term matter, and that the state of the economy is now somehow measurable. Therefore, despite the sensationalist headlines, the value of the Pound against its Western major peers is a case of business as usual. VIEW FULL ANALYSIS VISIT - FXOpen Blog...

Housebuilder stocks take a hard hit as UK market slows down The FTSE 100 index is once again below 7000 points today, and although it has risen from its low point of yesterday, it is still languishing at 6,975 as the trading day in London progresses. This is a 1.3% increase over the previous day, but represents a 2.9% drop over the past 30 days of trading. One of the main factors in bringing down the value of the FTSE 100 index is the impact that Britain's beleaguered economy is having on housebuilders, and many large British house building companies are listed on the London Stock Exchange and are part of the FTSE 100 index. For example, Barratt Developments, one of Britain's largest residential construction companies, reported a 12% slowdown in weekly reservations in the period from August 1 to October 1, compared with the same period in 2021 due to what it politely calls ‘the backdrop of rising interest rates and wider economic uncertainty’ - ultimately referring to the rising interest rates putting people off buying houses, and many British banks having withdrawn mortgage products from sale, preventing people from accessing finance in order to buy homes. Another large, publicly listed house building company, Bellway, recently reduced its its forecast for volume sales this year from 14,000 in its August trading update to ‘a similar level to the prior year’ or around 11,200 homes, which echoes the anticipated slowdown in house purchasing due to the flagging economy and rising interest rates. Investor behavior has reflected this pessimism as Bellway shares dropped in value yesterday by 1% to £18.07 while Redrow Homes shares also decreased in value by 1.5% to 410p, with shares in Vistry falling 3.6% to 545p. This has been a pattern that has made itself noticed for quite a few weeks, and the raw materials and mining companies which are included in the FTSE 100 index have been holding their value due to ongoing supply chain problems contributing to high demand for imported minerals and products used for manufacturing, whilst companies whose product relies on the strength of the economy and the ability for consumers to acquire credit have been struggling to maintain any form of growth. Today, Bellway Homes announced that it has scrapped its plan to build 1,000 more homes this year, demonstrating that a large company which knows its market well is not prepared to invest in building homes that may not be able to be sold, or which would have a limited audience due to the unfavorable conditions toward mortgages at the moment. During 2021, the FTSE 100 was the darling of investors. It rose above 7,000 and remained at such lofty heights for over a year. During that period, stamp duty (property purchase tax) had been postponed for properties up to a certain value, causing house building company stocks to rise, and big pharma was making a lot of revenues on the back of mandatory vaccines in many countries. Only now has it begun to dip below the 7,000 mark and the companies causing this to take place are a telling sign of the situation of the overall economy. Therefore, the pound's lamentable performance recently appears to be intrinsically linked to the performance of the FTSE 100 index. VIEW FULL ANALYSIS VISIT - FXOpen Blog...

SO much volatility! UK Government to tear up budget in emergency move The currency and stock markets have been in a remarkable state of turmoil for many weeks now, and perhaps one of the most exaggerated differentials in price has been between the Western major currencies and the British Pound. Traders and investors have been turning their back on the Pound Sterling, which has been struggling to retain its long-held status as the world's most valuable currency, and the charts have been displaying a continued downward direction for the British Pound for many weeks, a direction which has only begun to slow over the past few days. Today, however, the Pound has begun to soar! It is now at 1.13 against the US Dollar, a position it has not visited for many weeks. Many market commentators and analysts have been highlighting what appears at first glance to be a 'turnaround' for the British Pound, but the reality is that it is far from a turnaround - it is just a minor step up from the days before, as the Pound still languishes at a low value after weeks of decline, punctuated by an array of government U-turns, a mini-budget which was not well received at all, and the most short-lived Chancellor of the Exchequer (Finance Minister) in British history, Kwasi Kwarteng who was shown the door after just a few weeks in his position. Today, Jeremy Hunt, the replacement for Kwasi Kwarteng, is set to make an emergency statement relating to the outcome of the mini-budget, in which it is anticipated that he will tear it up and start again. Mr Hunt, the most recent senior government minister to be installed without a single free vote having been cast, is the subject of high expectations from the British public who are weary at the floundering government's effect on the economic situation of the country. Mr Hunt's reason for issuing a statement today is to attempt to calm the markets. One of the items on the agenda today is a statement to the House of Commons at 3.30pm, bringing forward measures from the Medium-Term Fiscal Plan, which is due on October 31. Some critics have stated this morning that these statements are aimed at buying the government time, and there are even speculators who have aired their view that newly installed Prime Minister Liz Truss may be ousted by her own political party very shortly, which is perhaps one reason why a relatively cautious view is being taken by investors with regard to the British Pound and stocks listed on the London Stock Exchange's FTSE 100 index. As an undertone to all of the high profile government chaos and economic pandemonium, the Bank of England has been raising interest rates since the beginning of this year and speculation is currently abound that they may well reach 5% in January 2023, and has been buying bonds to the tune of £65 billion which is in effect a way of printing money to bolster a flagging economy. Many banks pulled mortgage products off the shelves in the concern that interest rates may rocket, and this has been yet another indicator to traders and investors to be cautious. It would therefore be prudent to assume that many people will be looking out for the results of today's announcement at 3.30pm UK time. VIEW FULL ANALYSIS VISIT - FXOpen Blog...
