We are shifting our industrial exposure Tuesday afternoon by selling Emerson Electric on its slight gain and buying Eaton on today's dip. Historically when the market is overbought, we are hesitant about putting new money to work because an overbought market suggests the market has run up too far too fast and needs to digest gains. But selling one stock to buy another else keeps us cash neutral. We realize a loss of about 8% on Emerson stock purchased in December 2022. Jim waits 45 minutes after sending a trade alert before buying or selling a stock in his charitable trust's portfolio.

Enel, hitherto the world's biggest listed renewables developer, plans 35.8 billion euros ($39 billion) of gross capital expenditure in its plan to 2026, of which nearly 19 billion euros will help to modernise and make its networks more resilient. Shares in the state-controlled power group were down 0.4% at 1530 GMT paring a 1% initial loss on the Milan bourse and underperforming a nearly flat blue-chip index. Rising indebtedness was one of the reasons why the Italian government, which is the single biggest shareholder in Enel, decided to oust the group's previous CEO, Francesco Starace. New CEO Flavio Cattaneo pledged to spend only the cash generated by the business, without increasing the debt pile. The group will devote some 3 billion euros to actively manage its customer portfolio through bundled offers, which will include different commodities and services.

Jim Cramer said Tuesday he wants more clarity around why Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is aggressively selling shares. "I don't think anyone wants to be on the other side of Jeff Bezos selling," he added. The tech mogul on Tuesday could offload as many as 8 million to 10 million Amazon shares worth over $1 billion, according to CNBC's David Faber . While those are big numbers, more than 53 million shares of Amazon have traded hands as of late Tuesday afternoon. Tuesday's decline in Amazon shares follows an impressive rally of nearly 15% in the past month following better-than-expected third-quarter results in late October.

The South American country nationalized 51% of the oil company more than a decade ago from Spain's Repsol (REP.MC). YPF is Argentina's largest oil firm and oversees development of Vaca Muerta, the world's second-largest shale gas reserve and fourth-largest shale oil reserve. Shares of YPF jumped more than 40% early in the session, before paring some gains to trade up 35.2%. Global X analyst Trevor Yates said the YPF gains were related to the increasing likelihood of it being privatized and implementing an international price parity policy.

U.K. Inflation Drops Sharply, Likely Ending Rate Hikes

Despite cooling inflation, the Bank of England last month said it is too soon to think about cutting interest rates. Photo: daniel leal/Agence France-Presse/Getty ImagesLONDON—The U.K.’s annual rate of inflation fell more sharply than expected in October as household energy prices tumbled, the latest sign that a two-year surge in consumer prices across Europe is running out of steam as the continent’s economy flatlines. News of that decline followed Tuesday’s report of a drop in the U.S. inflation rate and added to investor confidence that the leading central banks are done raising their key interest rates—and are likely to start paring back lending rates in 2024, helping the economy. In the U.S., the inflation rate fell to 3.2% in October from 3.7% in September.

An Ocado grocery delivery van is driven along a street in London, Britain, March 25, 2023. It also holds a 50% share of Ocado Retail in the UK in a joint venture with Marks & Spencer (MKS.L). The deal with McKesson will see Ocado receive upfront fees during the construction process with the final payment upon final installation. Ocado said the impact of the deal will be minimal on cash flow and earnings in its current financial year. In July, the group reported a return to first half underlying profit.

But the company never created a sustainable business or changed how most people worked. Flexible office space accounts for less than 2 percent of all office space in the 20 largest U.S. markets, according to Cushman & Wakefield, close to its share before the pandemic. WeWork filed for bankruptcy protection this week in an effort to quickly slim down its portfolio of office spaces. Many employers are paring back their office space because workers aren’t going in five days a week after growing accustomed to working remotely or on a hybrid schedule. WeWork’s bankruptcy will only make the situation worse by leaving landlords with more space to fill.

The U.S. and China comprised the two biggest app store markets for the company, at 58% of total app revenue.

Details of how Japan is paring back military procurement due to currency fluctuations have not been previously reported. China, which has not ruled out using military force to bring Taiwan under its control, has expressed concern about Japan's military spending plans, accusing it of displaying a "Cold War mentality." In December, defence ministry officials discussed an order for 34 twin-rotor Chinook transport helicopters at roughly 15 billion yen per aircraft, two of the sources said. She declined to comment on whether the defence ministry had dropped an order for the seaplane. A ministry spokesperson confirmed the companies delivered a letter on Oct 25 to Defence Minister Minoru Kihara urging the government to proceed with the defence procurement as planned.

Weak yen forces Japan to shrink historic military spending plan

Since the plan was unveiled in December, the yen has lost 10% of its value against the dollar, forcing Tokyo to reduce its ambitious defense procurement plan, which was then-calculated to cost $320 billion, the sources said.

China, which has not ruled out using military force to bring Taiwan under its control, has expressed concern about Japan's military spending plans, accusing it of displaying a "Cold War mentality." Chinooks and seaplanesWith the cuts in its spending power, Japan decided to prioritize spending on advanced U.S.-made frontline weapons such as missiles that could halt advancing Chinese forces, the eight people said. About half that increase was due to the weak yen, said one of the government sources, who was directly involved in those discussions.

Company shares had plunged by as much as 20% in earlier trade. Aston Martin reported an adjusted operating loss of £48.4 million ($58.8 million) for the three months to the end of September and a net revenue of £362.1 million, below a company-compiled consensus of £370 million. "The DB12 production ramp up was temporarily affected as supplier readiness and integration of the new EE platform that supports the fully redeveloped infotainment system was delayed," Aston Martin said in its earnings report on Wednesday. Aston Martin Executive Chairman Lawrence Stroll said the launch of the DB12 has seen "extraordinary demand" and is bringing in new customers, with 55% of initial DB12 buyers new to the brand. "With the shares trading at a tenth of the level at which they listed in 2018, the optimistic comparisons Aston Martin made for itself with Italian rival Ferrari look as fanciful as they ever did."

Shares of chipmaker Nvidia fell sharply earlier this month after the U.S. government announced new restrictions on exporting advanced artificial intelligence chips to China. Investment bank Itau BBA's analysts believe the new export controls could reduce Nvidia's revenues from China by about 10% in 2025. However, the analysts say the stock's pullback has likely already priced in most or all of that impact. NVDA 1M mountain Itau BBA's $600 price target for Nvidia points to more than 40% upside from the current share price.

Oct 20 (Reuters) - S&P Global is the first among the “big three” rating agencies to upgrade Greece to investment grade since the country’s debt crisis in 2010. The other two agencies, Fitch and Moody's, rate the country one notch below investment grade. DBRS Morningstar upgraded Greece's rating to investment grade BBB (low) last month. Greece expects economic output to rise 3% in 2024 following a 2.3% expansion this year more than twice the eurozone average. It’s trading as investment grade anyway,” Rabobank senior rates strategist Lyn Graham-Taylor told Reuters.

But when excluding both fresh food and fuel prices, inflation was 4.2%, still close to the 40-year peak of 4.3% recorded earlier this year. As the reference point for much of the financial world, the 10-year yield helps set prices for all kinds of investments and loans. The yield on the 10-year Treasury touched 4.99%, up from 4.91% late Wednesday, before paring its gain to 4.98%. Early Friday, the 10-year Treasury yield was 4.94%. A higher 10-year yield makes mortgages more expensive, knocks down prices for investments and makes it costlier for companies to borrow and grow.

"Quite clear that the market is reading into Powell's comments on tighter financial conditions potentially leading to the tightening cycle being done and dusted. Obviously other FOMC officials have said similar, but hearing so 'from the horse's mouth' gives the statement extra credibility." The tone was a bit more dovish than other Fed officials recently.
