May 14 EU Open - #Nasdaq #Nvidia #Fed #Traders #MarketUpdate

✍🏻 EU/UK Market Open (May 14, Thursday 2026)

Good morning everyone!

Global markets are navigating a complex handover as the high-stakes Trump-Xi summit in Beijing delivers constructive rhetoric but mixed price action. While President Trump teased a "fantastic future" and tech titans like Nvidia’s Jensen Huang reported "excellent" meetings, Chinese equities (CSI 300 -1.3%) staged a "sell-the-news" retreat. Conversely, the AI trade remains relentless; the Nasdaq hit record highs overnight, bolstered by Cisco’s massive 20% post-market surge. However, the macro backdrop is darkening: hot US wholesale inflation and the confirmation of Kevin Warsh as Fed Chair have effectively priced out 2026 rate cuts, with traders now hedging for a potential hike as the 10-year Treasury yield stalks the 4.50% handle.

The European open (in ~1 hour) shifts the spotlight to London, where a "triple-threat" of political instability, stagflation data, and surging yields is unfolding. UK Gilts are under immense pressure, with 10-year yields flirting with 18-year highs (5.13%) as reports of a leadership challenge to PM Keir Starmer by Wes Streeting inject a fresh fiscal risk premium. We face a heavy UK data dump at 09:00 GMT+3, including Q1 GDP and Manufacturing Production, which will test the FTSE 100’s recent resilience. In the Eurozone, expect a cautious tone following ECB’s Lane’s warnings that energy shocks from the Iran conflict may demand a "forceful" monetary response. Watch the Yen (158.00) and Rupiah (17,500) for intervention risk as the USD remains the undisputed king of this hawkish pivot.

👉🏻 Upcoming key releases:
• UK GDP Growth Rate QoQ/YoY (14 May, 09:00 GMT+3)
• UK Manufacturing & Industrial Production (14 May, 09:00 GMT+3)
• ECB President Lagarde Speech (14 May, 12:15 GMT+3)
• US Retail Sales & Initial Jobless Claims (14 May, 15:30 GMT+3)
