  + stars: | 2024-12-11 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Gold prices scaled a two-week peak on Wednesday, supported by escalating geopolitical tensions and expectations of another rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve next week, and ahead of the closely watched U.S. inflation report later in the day. Spot gold was up 0.2% at $2,698.47 per ounce, as of 0253 GMT, and hit its highest since Nov. 25. Investors' focus is on the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is expected to have risen by 0.3% in November. Gold is considered a safe investment during economic and geopolitical turmoil and tends to thrive in a low-interest-rate environment. Spot silver added 0.1% to $31.93 per ounce, platinum gained 0.5% to $947.55 and palladium rose 0.7% to $975.19.

Marc Rowan on Wednesday addressed succession at private-equity giant Apollo Global. After Apollo CEO Marc Rowan's whirlwind candidacy for Trump's Treasury Secretary gig, questions remain about what could become of the firm after Rowan's eventual exit. As Business Insider has previously reported, Wall Street stock analysts view the two Apollo Asset Management copresidents as Rowan's natural successors. Rowan also mentioned "two very, very senior partners" in the firm's retirement services business Athene. But beyond these names, Rowan said there's "another 10 in asset management and another handful in retirement services" who represent "the next generation" of Apollo executives.

Alphabet spikes after Google announces 'breakthrough' quantum chip Shares of Google's parent company Alphabet rose 6% on Tuesday, a day after the company hailed its latest quantum computing chip as a "breakthrough." Quantum computing uses quantum bits or qubits which can be zero, one or something in between. Will we see faster laptops, faster smartphones, or can quantum computing be used for artificial intelligence applications? Proponents of quantum computing claim it will be able to solve problems that current computers can't. After all, if there are currently no real world uses for quantum computing, the solution cannot be put to solving problems, let alone commercialized.

CNBC takes viewers on a deep dive into Salt Lake City's booming banking sector. The city's exceptional growth in finance can be traced back to an early catalyst: industrial banking. This little-known type of banking institution allows nonfinancial companies, such as car manufacturer BMW , to own its own bank. Utah is home to most of America's industrial banks, with 15 of the nation's 23 located in Salt Lake County — a concentration unmatched anywhere else in the country. Jason Kotter, a professor of finance at Brigham Young University, explains the role of industrial banks, how they function, and why they've been key to Salt Lake City's rise as a major financial powerhouse.

Kamil Krzaczynski | AFP | Getty ImagesA key economic report coming Wednesday is expected to show that progress has stalled in bringing down the inflation rate, though not so much that the Federal Reserve won't lower interest rates next week. Excluding food and energy, so-called core inflation is forecast at 3.3%, or unchanged from October. With the Fed targeting annual inflation at 2%, the report will provide more evidence that the high cost of living remains very much a fact of life for U.S. households. Halting progress, but more cutsTo be sure, inflation has moved down considerably from its CPI cycle peak around 9% in June 2022. Car prices are expected to show a 2% monthly increase, while air fares are seen as 1% higher, the firm's economists projected in a note.

Bank of America will lag its peers in a capital markets recovery cycle, Morgan Stanley predicted. BAC YTD mountain BAC YTD chart Shares of Bank of America have rallied 39% this year. While Bank of America will benefit from a capital markets rebound, Graseck also shared her preference for banks that are more skewed to capital markets, since those names will likely see more upside. "In a bear case, BAC is more credit exposed vs. capital markets pure plays," the analyst wrote. And while Bank of America could get a boost from that, other banks tied more closely to dealmaking and capital markets may get a bigger one.

China's producer price index declined for the 26th month. Producer inflation fell by 2.5% year on year in November, less than the estimated 2.8% decline as per the Reuters poll. The persistent near-zero inflation shows that China is still grappling with sluggish domestic demand and deflation at the wholesale level. Liu said China's producer price index inflation will likely remain negative throughout 2025. China is also due to report its trade data for November on Tuesday, and retail sales figures next Monday.

BEIJING, CHINA - NOVEMBER 8: Chinese President Xi Jinping arrives for a signing ceremony with Italian President Sergio Mattarella (not pictured) at The Great Hall Of The People on November 8, 2024 in Beijing, China. Usually, the annual conference is preceded by the high-profile gathering of the Politburo, the top decision making body led by president Xi. While the specific numbers will not be announced until March, it is widely expected that Beijing will keep its next year's GDP growth target at "around 5" — same as the current year — if not slightly lower. China's President Xi Jinping and then U.S. President Donald Trump at a working session on the first day of the G20 summit in Hamburg, northern Germany, on July 7, 2017.

And now, after years of stasis in Silicon Valley, we have Sam Altman . To answer that question, I've spent weeks taking a Talmudic dive into the Gospel According to Sam Altman. Unlike Jobs, who bestrode the stage at Apple events dropping one-more-things like a modern-day Prometheus, Altman doesn't spew ego everywhere. AdvertisementAnother contrast with the tech gurus of yore: Altman says he doesn't care much about money. Altman doesn't know what the future will bring, but he's in a hurry to get there.

Generative artificial intelligence probably won't change your life in 2025 — at least, not more than it already has, according to Google CEO Sundar Pichai. When OpenAI launched ChatGPT two years ago, generative AI quickly captured the imagination of users around the world. When I look at [2025], the low-hanging fruit is gone," said Pichai, adding: "The hill is steeper ... You're definitely going to need deeper breakthroughs as we get to the next stage." But another seismic shift that changes the way most people think about or envision AI is unlikely to happen within the next year, said Pichai.
