Most Asia Markets Track Wall St Losses as Jitters Set in Ahead of Fed
Markets follow Wall Street losses as investors anticipate a 25 basis-point Federal Reserve rate cut and monitor Nvidia’s AI chip export deal with China.
- On Tuesday, Asia-Pacific markets were set to open lower, tracking Wall Street losses as most stocks fell ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve's Dec. 10 decision.
- The Federal Reserve is widely expected to cut rates by 25 basis points, and Stephen Kolano said `I would not be surprised for Jerome Powell to be like, 'We've cut, and now we're in a place where we really need to watch the data,'` as experts anticipate a more data-dependent stance.
- Overnight in the U.S., major indexes pulled back as the S&P 500 fell 0.35%, the Nasdaq Composite slid 0.14%, MSCI Inc.'s regional gauge dropped 0.3%, and Australia's S&P/ASX 200 declined 0.34%.
- President Donald Trump approved shipments of Nvidia Corp.'s H200 chip to China with a 25% cut to the U.S. government, boosting Nvidia 2.2% after hours while Renesas rose and Samsung fell.
- Markets now price fewer cuts next year, seeing two by the summer, and analysts warned a differing dot plot could spark volatility as investors scrutinize FOMC projections and Jerome Powell.
