市场快讯 - 布伦特原油持稳于107上方，芯片制造商延续跌势
Core conclusion · Tlines extraction
Chipmakers fell for a ninth straight session, their longest slump since 2008, as AI spending doubts deepened and CoreWeave lost over 20% in a week. The Nasdaq dropped 2.5% and the S&P 500 1.1%, while Europe rose 0.7%. Fed Chair Warsh gave no October guidance and said inflation remained too high but in line with expectations. US industrial output beat at 0.7% m/m. Brent fell 1.7% to USD 108 after a five-month high of USD 110, gold held near USD 4,175 and the ten-year yield eased to about 5.065%.

Key arguments
- Chipmakers recorded their longest losing streak since 2008 as investors questioned the scale and financing of AI infrastructure spending.
- Warsh gave no guidance for the 28 October meeting; markets cut implied odds of a hike, though most officials still expect one more increase this year after September's move to 3.75%-4%.
- Conflict in the Middle East and Black Sea underpinned crude, but Brent's pullback coincided with signs regional supply is holding near pre-war levels.
- Gold is torn between macro-driven selling and safe-haven demand; ETF holdings hit a four-year high while hedge fund longs fell to a four-month low.

Main risks
- USD 44.6bn gross dollar long, with record AUD short and ten-year-high EUR short, raises reversal risk if the backdrop shifts.
- Very low six-month realised correlation (0.01) left index volatility an unusually low base for repricing.
- US lawmakers introduced a bill to block the Trump-Russia diesel deal, which could revive sanctions uncertainty.
