Here are Thursday’s Top Wall Street Analyst Research Calls: Coinbase Global, Meta Platforms, Boeing, Cisco Systems, and More

Pre-Market Futures:

Futures are trading lower on Thursday as we get ready for a spooky Friday. The major indices started the day hitting new all-time highs on Wednesday, but sank in the afternoon after Fed Chairman Powell suggested that a December rate cut is not a given and that data between now and the December meeting will be used to gauge the need for another cut. While the Fed did cut rates by 25 basis points yesterday, it was largely priced in. Both the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Russell 2000 finished the day lower, while the tech-heavy NASDAQ finished higher in anticipation of big third-quarter results from the mega-cap tech giants. Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN | AMZN Price Prediction) and Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) will report after the close today. Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Microsoft Inc. (NASDAQ: MSFT), and Meta Inc. (NASDAQ: META) all reported after the close, and two of the three traded lower despite posting outstanding results.

Treasury Bonds:

The Treasury complex took the biggest hit on Wednesday, when the Chairman downplayed the potential for a December rate cut. Yields were higher across the curve after moving lower in anticipation of the Fed meeting. Record mortgage refinancing may take a breather with higher yields moving mortgage rates higher. The benchmark 10-year note closed the day at a 4.08% yield after trading below 4% recently.

Oil and Gas:

After a tough few days, West Texas Intermediate and Brent Crude finished Wednesday’s session higher at $60.38 and $64.86, respectively. Wall Street analysts are keeping a close eye on U.S. sanctions and their impact on global oil prices. Natural gas closed the day flat at $3.34.

Gold:

After initially trading higher early Wednesday, Gold reversed in the afternoon, closing modestly lower at $3,943. The Gold market has been on edge since last week, when Gold posted its most significant one-day drop in years. Most analysts conceded that while profit-taking has made some nervous as Gold has fallen into correction territory, the long-term trend remains higher.

Crypto:

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum ended the day almost 3% lower at the close, with Bitcoin falling to $110,679 and Ethereum closing at $3,917.
