Nvidia is poised for even bigger gains from current prices, according to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management currently has an overweight rating on Nvidia. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management's $1,000 price target implies that the stock could rise another 21%. Nvidia shares sell for a "valuation in line with historical trough multiples," and its growth potential justifies a higher valuation, Morgan Stanley said. Additionally, a growing AI tailwind could provide even more ammunition for Nvidia stock to balloon.

Dividend-focused investors should look to switch out a hot chip stock for a slumping consumer play after the latest market rally, according to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. Coffee chain Starbucks is joining the model portfolio, while red-hot Broadcom is on the way out. Starbucks has been battling rising labor costs in the U.S. and weak demand in China, a key international market. The addition of Starbucks helps bolster the consumer discretionary part of the Morgan Stanley Wealth Management model portfolio. The dividend yield for AVGO is 1.6% even after the company announced a dividend hike in December.

"The challenge with our model, historically, is we had a great wealth management firm if you wanted to work with a financial adviser," he said.

☆ Can America afford two wars? Here’s what the bond market thinks
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-29 | by ( Elisabeth Buchwald | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +5 min

New York CNN —If you want to aggravate the US bond market, just remind traders how high the nation’s budget deficit is. The latest tally from the Treasury Department for the fiscal year that ended September 30 put the deficit at $1.7 trillion. All else being equal, that tends to push bond prices down, which causes yields to go higher. That suggests there are other factors that may be outweighing the effects of the war that are driving yields higher, said Snyderman. Also, since the debt ceiling was suspended in June, the Treasury has been issuing more bonds to fund government spending, pushing bond prices down.

New York CNN —The Chinese economy has hit a rough patch. What’s happening: Chinese consumer spending, factory production and investments in long-term assets like property or machinery all slumped last month. On Monday, the Chinese government surprised investors by deciding not to cut an important interest rate that influences mortgages. The beauty company is “mindful of the headwinds that have emerged in China’s economy,” said the report. And even still, many regional banks have struggled to prevent deposit outflows.

☆ Load up on bonds for their juicy yields before the stock-market rally loses steam, says Morgan Stanley

It might be time to pile into US Treasurys, according to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. Bond yields have jumped in recent weeks, while the equity-market rally may be losing steam. "Investors should consider hedges for their high-priced stocks," CIO Lisa Shalett said. Lisa Shalett said in a note to clients Monday that spiking yields had made bonds much more attractive in recent weeks, signaling that fixed-income assets could be a suitable hedge if this year's breathless stock-market rally starts to lose steam. When Treasury yields rise, they become more attractive to investors relative to stocks because they offer similar returns at a lower risk level.

Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices is an "emerging growth opportunity" in artificial intelligence, according to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. Investment strategist Daniel Skelly said he added the chipmaker to the firm's equity model portfolio. He noted that AMD is "a leader in chip end markets with potential AI tailwinds." "We viewed AMD's 2Q23 print constructively as management indicated improving business conditions into the second half of the year," Skelly said. "With data center revenue growth troughing, we believe investors should look through to a 2024 inventory re-build that is supported by tailwinds from AI."

The central bank district's Inflation Nowcast model points to a 0.4% rise that would equate to a 3.4% annual rate. "Rent could be an important source of a positive (moderating) surprise in July's CPI," Yardeni wrote. 'Sticky' inflation persists But inflation has proven more persistent than most policymakers, particularly those at the Fed, would have thought. In fact, the Atlanta Fed's sticky CPI is still at 5.8% on a 12-month basis — though 2.9% at an annualized pace — after peaking at 6.7% earlier this year. Moreover, Thursday's core CPI reading is expected to show core inflation running at a 4.7% annual level, just a tad below the June reading.

☆ How will the Federal Reserve’s rate hike pause affect the dollar?

A strong dollar affects prices, tourism and tradeThe ripple effect of a robust dollar permeates various parts of the economic picture, from international trade to tourism. “One of the underappreciated dimensions of a strong dollar is that it weighs on inflation,” she said. While Americans may find trips abroad relatively cheaper during times of dollar strength, tourism to the United States may take a hit. Relative weakness in European and Asian economies has also added investors’ appetite for the dollar, according to Gagnon. “I don’t see anything on the horizon that would weaken the dollar,” Gagnon said.

But what does the Fed mean when it talks about labor markets and their impact on inflation? What’s happening: At its most basic level, labor productivity is a measure of the value of the goods and services produced by a company compared with the amount of labor used to produce that output. Labor productivity decreased 2.1% in the first quarter of 2023, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported earlier this month. The silver lining: The good news is technological innovations typically drive upturns in productivity and AI could be such an innovation. Absolutely not,” Yellen said, echoing the joint statement leaders from the Group of Seven made at last month’s summit in Japan.
