Apple reports fiscal fourth-quarter results after Monday’s close. Consensus is about $113.4 billion revenue and $1.99 EPS. Markets will focus on iPhone 18 demand, Services growth, gross margin and holiday-quarter guidance. Supply constraints and rising memory costs are key risks, while investors will assess whether Apple’s AI rollout can support demand and margins into fiscal 2027. 2. The RBA announces its decision Tuesday after raising the cash rate to 4.60% in September. September CPI rose 4.3% year over year and trimmed-mean inflation 3.6%, strengthening the case for another hike. Markets are pricing roughly an 80% chance of a 25-basis-point increase and will watch forecasts, Bullock’s guidance and signals about further tightening in December. 3. The Bank of England announces its decision Thursday. A Reuters poll found 54 of 63 economists expect a 25-basis-point hike to 4.00%. September CPI rose to 3.5%, with core inflation at 2.8% and services inflation at 3.7%. Markets will focus on the vote split, updated forecasts and Bailey’s guidance on whether further tightening is likely ahead. 4. The October U.S. employment report is released Friday. September payrolls rose 29,000 and unemployment increased to 4.2%, while wage growth slowed. Markets will watch payrolls, unemployment, earnings, participation and revisions to judge whether hiring is stabilising.

	Market Debrief: 26 – 30 Oct *Published: Friday October 30, 2026 @ 11:00 EDT Duration: 0.42 minutes Views: 7 Likes: 1 Favorite: 0 Description*: Here's a recap from key market stories this week. 1. The Fed held rates unchanged, signalling patience while it gathers more information on inflation and growth. Kevin Warsh said the economy remains strong and highlighted AI as one growth driver. Two policymakers dissented, reinforcing a tightening bias, while procedural changes will reduce scheduled rate votes in 2027. Markets remain focused on whether a hike arrives in December. 2. Microsoft beat fiscal first-quarter expectations as revenue rose 19% and Azure grew 48%, lifting shares after hours. Guidance also topped forecasts, with Azure growth expected to accelerate further. Investors welcomed strong AI demand and continued free cash flow, but rising capital spending, higher component costs and supply constraints remain important risks for margins and returns ahead. 3. Alphabet missed third-quarter earnings and revenue expectations despite 25% sales growth, while free cash flow turned sharply negative and shares slumped. Heavy AI investment remains the central concern, although Google Cloud revenue more than doubled and Gemini adoption strengthened. Investors are weighing accelerating AI demand against weaker cash generation, rising debt and the scale of future capital spending. 4. Oracle shares surged after stronger-than-expected investor-day guidance. The company now expects fiscal 2030 revenue above $225 billion, ahead of consensus, while limiting additional capital raises through 2030. Investors also welcomed guidance for positive free cash flow in the second half of fiscal 2028, easing concerns that heavy AI infrastructure spending will pressure finances for longer. 67% of retail CFD accounts lose money.

Description: This video breaks down the technical differences between a temporary pullback and a permanent trend reversal in EURUSD. A healthy pullback retraces on low volume and holds above dynamic moving averages, while a reversal decisively breaks support on expanding volume. Monitoring momentum divergence and volume on attempted recoveries provides clear signals on whether to buy the dip or exit the trend.

	Gold vs Silver: Which Shows Greater Relative Strength When Uncertainty Rises *Published: Tuesday October 27, 2026 @ 16:32 EDT Duration: 2.60 minutes Views: 9 Likes: 2 Favorite: 0 Description*: This video highlights the behavioral differences between gold and silver during periods of market fear. While gold acts as a pure safe-haven asset during deep systemic crises, silver's dual role as an industrial metal causes it to lag in extreme panic but outperform during moderate, manageable uncertainty.

After Cloud revenue surged 82% last quarter, investors will watch whether AI-driven growth remains strong enough to support heavy infrastructure investment. 3.
