CLOSING BELL
Market Falls Below The 50 Day
The market fell Monday to start a new week, all eyes looking toward big box retail earnings and Nvidia’s Wednesday report. Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel’s fund sold its $100M stake in Nvidia, sending chip stocks lower.
All major indexes closed below their 50-day moving averages on Monday, a red sign before this week’s government data drops after the shutdown halted bean counting.
According to SentimenTrader data compiled by Bloomberg, the S&P 500 falls to an average maximum loss of 1.3% about two weeks after a break below the 50-day, dating back to the 1920s. But one month later, the index tends to rebound with a 1.9% rise.
Payroll data is due Thursday. FOMC minutes, which may reveal decision-making at the Fed from last month, drop Wednesday. Otherwise, it is a holdout week until Nvidia, and the AI boom it represents, impresses or misses high expectations.
Bitcoin and crypto were falling, the king of crypto nearly making its way back below $90k. Today’s RIP: Not all tech is made the same, Fed still split on rate cut, Nvidia’s report is coming, and more.
One sector closed green. Utilities $XLU ( ▲ 0.9% ) lead and financials $XLF ( ▼ 1.91% ) lagged.
STOCKS
Not All Tech Is The Same 🧭

Both Alphabet stocks $GOOGL ( ▲ 3.12% ) were climbing Monday after Berkshire Hathaway's 13F filing showed Buffet bought 17M shares of the Google owner in September, now worth nearly $5B.
It was a Buffet bump if we have ever seen one, sending the stocks to a 50% gain for the year overall, the best on the whole Mag 7. Eyes turned toward what investors want to see next from the search giant: a new AI Gemini 3.0 model.
Chief Sundar Pichai teased the release, posting a Polymarket bet over when the new model would drop on twitter. Pichai had said the model should be out before the end of the year, and employees are making similar leak posts on twitter. Google needs an AI win, fast, after losing out the brand name recognition for the new era of search to ChatGPT in a big way. Business Insider reported the Gemini app has about 650M monthly active users, compared to 800M people talking to ChatGPT every week.
Back to Buffett also trimmed his $AAPL ( ▼ 1.82% ) stake slightly, one of his last moves before retirement this year.
$DELL ( ▼ 8.43% ) and other computer builders like $HPE ( ▼ 7.01% ) were falling Monday after personal computing names got downgraded by Morgan Stanley analysts, expecting damaged margins from surging memory prices.
Hardware valuations are reaching all-time highs due to AI hyperscaling data center builds, analysts wrote, leaving slim (and expensive) pickings for individual sale in personal computers. They expect memory fulfillment to fall up to 40% in the next six months. 🐿️

MACRO NEW
Fed Inflation Still Split 🏦
Fed Governor Chris Waller sees tariffs as a one‑off bump, speaking Monday in support of cutting rates in December over fears the job market is going to keep tanking.
"The data leads me, at this moment, to support a cut in the FOMC's policy rate at our next meeting on December 9 and 10 as a matter of risk management," Waller said in a speech titled "The Case for Continuing Rate Cuts.
Meanwhile, the Fed Vice Chair Jefferson called the current 3% PCE level a ‘stall’ in inflating prices, a temporary thing, but said that the central bank should still move slowly at its Dec. 9-10 meeting.
"The current policy stance is still somewhat restrictive, but we have moved it closer to its neutral level that neither restricts nor stimulates the economy," Jefferson said in Kansas City on Monday.
MACRO NEWS
Nvidia Report Is On The Way
