Today’s Newsletter (July 15th, 2025)

Futures mixed at the time of this writing as talking heads focus on bank earnings results along with news out of Nvidia who announced that they will be able to resume AI chip sales in China. Tariffs continue to draw a lot of attention along with today’s CPI report.

From Bloomberg

  • "A rally in tech stocks led markets higher after the US cleared Nvidia Corp. to sell advanced computer chips to China, lifting sentiment on a busy day that also features inflation data and big bank earnings.

  • Nasdaq 100 contracts rose 0.6% and S&P 500 futures climbed 0.3%. Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. strengthened more than 4% in early trading. JPMorgan Chase & Co. fluctuated as the lender’s investment bankers eked out a surprise second-quarter gain.

  • Short-dated US government bond yields rose after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said it would be confusing for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to remain at the central bank after his term ends, adding that a “formal process” has already begun to identify a potential successor.

  • For Nvidia, the approval of export licenses for the H20 chip not only boosts its earnings prospects but also bodes well for progress in trade talks between the White House and key partners. With stocks trading near record highs, investors will also gain a clearer read on corporate health as major banks mark the unofficial start of earnings season."
