O gigante dos semicondutores entrega performance que deixa o mercado em estado de choque.

O que impulsionou a ascensão meteórica

Investidores correm para reposicionar carteiras enquanto a Intel surpreende até os analistas mais otimistas. A alta de 36% em um único mês reescreve as regras do jogo para ações de tecnologia estabelecidas.

Wall Street finalmente acorda para o potencial real

Enquanto isso, o mercado de criptomoedas continua sua evolução silenciosa, mostrando que a verdadeira inovação raramente vem dos lugares óbvios.

Oracle takes a beating after harsh warning from Redburn

Oracle’s decline followed a new sell rating issued by Rothschild & Co. Redburn. The firm warned that Oracle’s recent AI partnerships won’t deliver as much growth as expected. “The market materially overestimates” the impact of those deals on its core cloud business, Redburn said.

They believe the stock could fall 40% from here. That warning hit hard. By Wednesday’s close, Oracle was already down 10% from its latest high, and Thursday’s dip added to the damage.

The broader tech slide wasn’t limited to Oracle. MicroStrategy, now officially renamed Strategy, also sank, losing 7.6% by the end of Thursday’s trading. Tesla didn’t do much better, as its shares dropped 3.8%, fueled by more bad news out of Europe.

Tesla’s struggles in the European electric vehicle market are getting worse. Data from the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association showed that Tesla EV registrations in the region fell to 14,831 units in August, a 22.5% year-over-year drop. The region includes the UK and EFTA countries.

And while overall EV sales rose 26.8%, Tesla’s decline stood out. It’s now the eighth straight month of lower Tesla sales in Europe. The August numbers were still better than July, when sales plunged 40.2% to just 8,837 units, but the trend is heading in the wrong direction.

If Congress fails to reach a deal to fund the federal government prior to next week’s deadline, the market could see some turmoil in the near term, according to Louis Navellier, founder and chief investment officer of Navellier & Associates.

“A side risk is that the rating agencies may use it as an opportunity to put the U.S. on credit watch, something they’ve done before, as they are not happy with the soaring debt levels anyway,” he wrote. “If a shutdown happens, it is likely to bring short-term market volatility.”

Yields climb as market braces for inflation data and shutdown risk

The market was also hit by rising bond yields, as the 10-year Treasury yield climbed to 4.2% after jobless claims came in below estimates, triggering concerns that the Fed could hold rates higher for longer, as Cryptopolitan previously reported.

Risk assets, especially tech, took the hit. UBS says there’s still room for stocks to move up, even with these bumps. In a note Thursday, Ulrike Hoffmann-Burchardi, a managing director at the firm, said they see the S&P 500 reaching 6,800 by June 2026 in their base case, and up to 7,500 in a bullish scenario.

She added, “Any doubt over the Fed’s future easing path could stoke volatility, but we continue to believe that positive market fundamentals will likely drive equities higher in the coming months.”

Meanwhile, the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) surged to 17.02 as all three major stock indexes slipped deeper into the red, with investors now waiting for Friday’s release of the personal consumption expenditures price index, which could swing Fed policy again.

And then there’s Washington. Concerns over a potential government shutdown are heating up. NBC News reported that the Office of Management and Budget has told federal agencies to get ready for “reduction in force” plans if Congress fails to fund the government. That could trigger mass layoffs in the public sector.
