AMD stock tumbles 3%: analysts say market is missing this key catalyst Invezz

Hiroshi Watanabe/DigitalVision via Getty Images Market Review With 2026 underway, a few factors are readily apparent across the global fixed income markets: the slow-going bull market remains in the sweet spot; attractive yield levels should continue to accrue into solid returns over the intermediate to longer term; and the unusual geopolitical backdrop and asynchronous central bank cycles should continue to create opportunities to add value through active management. Although events like Q1's tariff unveiling and accompanying market swoon created bumps along the way, the ongoing economic expansion with moderate growth and inflation has kept yields generally high and range bound—an environment where the highest-yielding sectors continued to post the highest returns. Although excess returns from spread products were once again positive in 2025—as they have been throughout the three years of the bull market—they were more muted. Spreads are narrower, and the bulk of the capital gains potential from narrowing spreads is well behind us at this point of the cycle. Thanks to the positive yield curve and a slight drop in yields, Treasuries finally outperformed cash and joined the bull market last year. Two prevailing themes from late 2025—renewed divergence across global monetary policy rates and the repricing of term premia—will likely remain at play within developed market rate complexes with 2026 underway. So, while we expect a smaller return contribution from spread product going forward, long-term fixed income should pick up a tailwind from the yield advantage and roll down benefits provided by the newly positive yield curves. In the U.S., the Fed's 25 bp rate cut in December carried a dovish tone, leading to a bull steepening along the curve with only slight movement in the 10-year yield. The narrow move on the 10-year underscored its prevailing low-volatility, range-bound conditions throughout 2025. The low-volatility conditions in the U.S. were further amplified by...

At first blush, there doesn’t appear to be a whole lot happening with the S&P 500 in 2026. But dig a little bit deeper, and it is a whole different story.

The stock market is going through turbulence driven by two conflicting ideas about the AI trade. On the one hand, investors seem worried that big AI companies like Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) are spending too much money on AI data centers and other AI-related capital expenditures (capex). Amazon's stock recently dropped after the company announced plans to spend $200 billion on AI-related capex in 2026. The stock is down about 9% year to date as I write this and 12% in the past year. Microsoft stock is also getting hit by AI doubts. On Jan. 28, the company reported strong quarterly earnings with a 17% year-over-year increase in revenue and a 21% year-over-year increase in operating income. But the stock went down the next day, driven by concerns about the company's plans to spend more than $100 billion on capex this year. Microsoft stock is down 17% year to date, and about 3.5% in the past year. Continue reading
