⚡ MAJOR CATALYST ALERT: Historic Week Ahead as Trade Wars Cool & Rate Cuts Expected

🔥 KEY THINGS TO KNOW - TUESDAY OCTOBER 28, 2025

MASSIVE CATALYSTS CONVERGING: Markets are entering one of the most consequential trading weeks of 2025. The Trump-Xi summit scheduled for Thursday in South Korea has already produced a breakthrough framework agreement, potentially averting a catastrophic trade war. Meanwhile, the Fed's two-day FOMC meeting concludes Wednesday with a 96%+ probability of a 25 basis point rate cut. Tech mega-cap earnings from Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Alphabet, and Amazon hit this week, while NVIDIA's Jensen Huang delivers a keynote Tuesday at 12:00 PM ET at the GTC Washington Summit. Bitcoin holds above $113K, Ethereum recovers to $4,100, and S&P 500 futures sit at fresh all-time highs near 6,911.

OVERNIGHT BOMBSHELLS: Amazon announces 14,000 corporate layoffs, PayPal surges 8.9% premarket on OpenAI partnership, UnitedHealth and UPS crush earnings, nuclear energy stocks explode on $80B reactor deal, and Trump declares Fed Chair Powell "will be out in a few months."

SECTOR ROTATION: Money flowing into nuclear/energy infrastructure (CCJ, WAB), AI payment rails (PYPL), healthcare (UNH), shipping/logistics (UPS), and AI semiconductors (NVDA) while gold corrects -11% from highs.

📈 MARKET SENTIMENT OVERVIEW

Bullish Momentum Dominant 🟢

The S&P 500 closed Monday at 6,735 (+1.07%), Nasdaq at 22,990 (+1.37%), and Dow at 46,706 (+1.12%). Markets hit all-time highs as the Trump-Xi trade framework eased fears of a 157% tariff escalation on Chinese goods. The VIX dropped 11.77% to 18.33, signaling reduced volatility and increased risk appetite.

Futures Action (Pre-Market Tuesday):

• ES (S&P 500 Futures): 6,911 (+3.00, +0.04%)

• NQ (Nasdaq Futures): Strong tech continuation

• Bitcoin: $113,831 (-1.4% from recent $116K highs)

• Ethereum: $4,090 (-3.7%, holding above critical $4,000 support)

🔴 BREAKING NEWS CATALYST WRAP-UP

🇺🇸🇨🇳 TRUMP-XI TRADE FRAMEWORK: TACTICAL PAUSE OR REAL DEAL?

US and Chinese officials reached a preliminary framework agreement over the weekend in Malaysia, with both sides making significant progress toward de-escalating trade tensions. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed the 100% tariff threat is "effectively off the table" after productive negotiations.

Key Framework Details:

• Meeting confirmed for Thursday, Oct 30 in South Korea at APEC Summit

• Preliminary consensus reached on export controls, fentanyl trafficking, and shipping levies

• Rare earth mineral disputes partially resolved

• TikTok deal expected to be finalized Thursday

Trading Implication: Risk-on sentiment surging. Asia markets and US futures rallied on the news. However, Saxo Bank strategists warn: "The truce is only a tactical pause, not a reset - the agreement eases uncertainty briefly but doesn't change the long-term rivalry for technological and economic dominance".

🏦 FED RATE CUT 96% CERTAIN - OCTOBER 29 DECISION

The Federal Reserve's two-day policy meeting on Oct 28-29 is expected to deliver an interest rate cut, which could be good for the market long term. CME FedWatch data shows 96-98% probability of a 25 basis point cut, bringing the benchmark rate to 3.75%-4.00%.

Complication: The ongoing US government shutdown prevented release of the latest non-farm payrolls report, so policymakers have very limited data with which to make a decision.

Fed Chair Drama: Trump stated Tuesday morning: "Powell will be out in a few months" and called the Fed Chairman "incompetent or a bad guy". This adds uncertainty to monetary policy outlook.

Trade Rating: 8/10 - Rate cuts historically bullish for equities, but political interference risk elevated.

💡 FINAL THOUGHTS & OUTLOOK

This is a HISTORIC WEEK for markets. The convergence of:

• Trump-Xi trade summit (Thursday)

• Fed rate decision (Wednesday)

• Mega-cap tech earnings (Wed-Thu)

• Nuclear energy renaissance

• AI commerce integration

...creates both MASSIVE OPPORTUNITY and ELEVATED RISK.

Corporate profits continue to impress Wall Street, and the Fed is expected to lower interest rates, providing legs for a rally. The combination of easier monetary policy and better-than-expected corporate earnings has supported the stock market's rally this year.

However, markets are priced for near-perfection. Any disappointment from Fed guidance, earnings misses, or Trump-Xi summit failure could trigger rapid 3-5% corrections.

Our Bias: CAUTIOUSLY BULLISH with tight risk management.
