Financial Markets: From Black Thursday to Rebound, Dow Jones at 50,000

10min | 02/09/2026

Description

Financial markets in rollercoaster mode: I recount the contrast between Black Thursday on the Nasdaq and S&P 500 and the very sharp rebound on Friday, carried by Nvidia and Broadcom. I then move to the flip side of the session with Amazon, down, and explain why its investment spending and artificial intelligence weigh on investor analysis, using my concrete example of product recommendations. I end with a tour of the record-breaking Dow Jones, fragile Bitcoin, hesitant gold, then DAX and CAC 40. Subscribe if this helps.

Risk Warning: Trading in leveraged financial instruments may expose you to a risk of loss exceeding deposits and is only suitable for experienced clients who have sufficient financial means to bear such risk. Transactions in foreign exchange instruments (Forex), contracts for difference (CFDs), Futures, Stocks, ETFs... are highly speculative and particularly complex and carry a high level of risk due to leverage. You must ensure that you understand how these instruments work and that you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
