Major EV manufacturers released their August delivery numbers yesterday, and the results were a mixed bag.NIO, XPeng & Li AutoStarting with $NIO Inc.(NIO)$ $NIO-SW(09866)$ , they delivered 20,176 units in August, a 4.4% increase year-over-year, marking their fourth consecutive month with over 20,000 units. This is solid for NIO, especially since they haven’t launched any new models recently and are relying on their existing lineup. For a company focusing solely on EV, maintaining monthly sales above 20,000 units is impressive.NIO also celebrated the launch of its new brand, ONVO, which kicked off with a “100 Stores Opening” event. ONVO L60 model will be available in 105 stores across 55 cities and 23

$DJIA(.DJI)$ $S&P 500(.SPX)$ $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ $Gold - main 2412(GCmain)$ $WTI Crude Oil - main 2410(CLmain)$ OverviewStocks have largely recovered from the almost 10% correction seen early in August, which was the worst start to a month since 2002. However, in just 11 trading days the market had recovered and even came near its record July highs.While the Fed has begun to telegraph it will likely cut before the year is out, the market may be jumping the gun, pricing in an aggressive 100bps cut by the end of the year. For September, 63% expect a 25bps cut, and 37% exp

The current state of the United States economy is at the center of the market's disagreement over the "rate-cutting cycle".Some participants believe that the U.S. is on the verge of a recession, while others emphasize the resilience of the economy and continued growth.Rate cuts and recession?Current market expectations for rate cuts stem from two main directions:If the U.S. economy falls into recession, the Fed may be forced to cut rates quickly (the first 50 basis points to start) to ease economic downward pressure;If the economy continues to be resilient, the Fed may also take precautionary rate cuts (starting at 25 basis points for the first time) to ensure that the economy achieves a soft landing.More than 70 common U.S. economic data indicators are divided into core, auxiliary and for

The market is highly focused on the last non-farm payrolls data ahead of the upcoming September FOMC meeting, as this data will have a decisive impact on the risk of a future recession and the magnitude of the Fed's rate cut.The market is discussing whether the Fed will cut rates by 25 bps or 50 bps, especially after Powell reiterated the importance of the job market to policy decisions at the Jackson Hole meeting, the possibility of a rate cut is in the spotlight.However, the market's reaction did not form a unified trend, and the performance of various asset classes is not the same.As of now, the probability of a 25 basis point rate cut in September reflected in CME interest rate futures has risen to 71%, while the 50 basis point rate cut is expected to fall back to 29%.Meanwhile, the 10

I didn't realize that the U.S. General Election Debate could attract the attention of top streamer Taylor Swift, but if it were in the entertainment industry, Trump would already be dead.At this juncture to do such a large section of justified publicity, obviously also brokers together to discuss the results, after all, the people in this industry know the most about the flow, but also the most understanding of "The Crowd", and even in this contrast, Elon Musk's counter-attacks also seem a little "furious!".At the end of the day, Trump's debates are really bad, but not that bad compared to his past performances - after all, he's not a "reasonable" (in the purely literal sense of the word) person - so Kamala Harris hits him on a couple of key points, and they're right on the money:Trump can
