# ☕️ [Task Coins Giveaway] Daily Market Talk — Hike Bets Rise as Nvidia Probes Its CEO

US hiring came in at more than double forecasts, lifting bets on a December Fed hike. Over the weekend, Nvidia's board opened a probe involving CEO Jensen Huang, and its shares slip in overnight trading. Let's dig in 👇

**💬 A hot jobs report and a Nvidia probe. Which one matters more for your portfolio this week?**

## 📊 Quick Recap — What Moved & Why

### 🇺🇸 US — Hot Jobs Lift Hike Bets

**🔑 Key Event:** The US added 165,000 jobs in October, more than double forecasts, and unemployment fell to 4.1%. **Markets now price about an 80% chance of a December Fed hike, ahead of Tuesday's CPI.**

**👀 Other to Watch**

-   $Dow Jones Industrial Average(.DJI.US) **-0.46%**, $S&P 500(.SPX.US) **+0.31%**, $NASDAQ Composite Index(.IXIC.US) **+1.09%**, as chips rebounded but rate worries capped gains.
-   $NVIDIA(NVDA.US) → **+2.78%**, then slips about 3% overnight after Huang admitted infidelity and the board opened a security probe.
-   **Chips** → $AMD(AMD.US) **+11.04%**, $Taiwan Semiconductor(TSM.US) **+6.33%** and $Micron Tech(MU.US) **+5.12%**, as buyers returned after Thursday's rout.
-   $Microsoft(MSFT.US) → **-0.99%** after reports it is scaling back AI computing leases from Oracle and others.
-   **Fed** → San Francisco Fed's Mary Daly said policy will likely need to tighten further.

> @optionspuppy : My biggest focus is not simply whether the Nasdaq or S&P 500 goes up or down. It is what the Federal Reserve thinks about inflation.

> @Gary Black Tracker : I doubt Jensen Huang will be able to remain as NVDA CEO. This could put short-term pressure on the stock.

### 🇸🇬 Singapore — STI Ends a Rough Week

**🔑 Key Event:** The $FTSE Straits Times Index(STI.SG) fell **-2.21%** to 5,179.17 on Friday, down 3.83% for the week, as the regional AI selloff and weaker local banks weighed. **SGX is closed today for Deepavali.**

**👀 Other to Watch**

-   **Banks** → $DBS(D05.SG) **-2.08%** and $UOB(U11.SG) **-2.46%** on Friday, while $OCBC Bank(O39.SG) fell less after beating forecasts.
-   $Grab(GRAB.US) → **-2.01%** on Friday, ending a four-day run, but still up about 26% since results.

> @Ruthie : Last week presented an opportunity to use some reserves to shore up. My takeaway is to set aside reserves to shore up blue chips.

> @Gweet : One slow quarter doesn't change the facts. I'm holding long-term, enjoying the dividends.

### 🇭🇰 HK/China — SMIC Rises Ahead of Results

**🔑 Key Event:** The $Hang Seng Index(00HSI.HK) is up about **+0.4%** near 24,590 this morning after Friday's **-1.27%** close at 24,481.86. $SMIC(00981.HK) **gains about 2% ahead of Thursday's results, while** $MEITUAN(03690.HK) **falls over 3%.**

> @Fattycat : I am not rushing to add or cut my position just yet. I may accumulate more if it drops below HKD 100.

### 🌎 Other to Watch

-   **🛢️ Oil** → Iran says three more tankers caught fire near Hormuz on Sunday, but Brent slips about 0.5% to near $98 this morning.
-   **🪙 Gold** → rises about 1.5% this morning, as softer oil prices ease some of the worries over inflation.

- **kailash · 2026-11-09T06:06:14.000Z**: Hot job growth pushes interest rates higher, while a key-person governance scandal rocks the lead driver of the AI rally. That dual pressure guarantees a volatile session dominated by risk-off sentiment in technology stocks.
- **Shyon · 2026-11-09T06:03:46.000Z · 👍 1**: I think the stronger-than-expected jobs report is the bigger concern for the overall market this week. A resilient labour market could give the Fed less reason to cut rates, while persistent inflation may keep Treasury yields elevated and put pressure on growth and AI stocks. I will be watching Tues

- **Wisely9 · 2026-11-09T05:31:27.000Z**: The timing of disclosing Jensen Huang’s affair at this height of semicon selloff is so “perfect”. As if the crash last week is not impactful enough, purposefully let out another blow to hit the market harder. Story repeats next round with different actors different plot but same intent, next year SP
- **Logan_KL · 2026-11-09T05:22:13.000Z**: I believe this incident will only have a short-term impact on NVIDIA's market trajectory. In the long run, as it remains an absolutely 稳健 (solid) choice, now is a good time to consider entering the market in batches.
- **FaithAnchor · 2026-11-09T05:00:29.000Z · 👍 1**: $DBS(D05.SG)DBS, OCBC and UOB have all come under selling pressure despite solid earnings. Could a December Fed rate hike give Singapore banks some breathing room? Higher rates may help margins, but will that be enough to bring investors back? Valuations still matter.

Rumours of him being forced to s
