Nasdaq sells
On June 20, 2023, the NASDAQ 100 index was forecasted to have a minimum value of 14,228, a maximum value of 16,370, and a closing value of 15,2991.
The U.S. stock market showed slight losses on June 19, 2023, which was attributed to two major factors: Apple’s announcement of its new mixed-reality headset, Vision Pro, and concerns regarding the possibility of regulators increasing capital requirements for large banks. Apple shares ended slightly down on June 20 after the announcement of the Vision Pro mixed-reality headset priced at $3,499. The unveiling, which marked Apple's first major product line since 2014, impressed industry professionals and led to a significant increase in shares of game development platform Unity Software, a partner for the Vision Pro. However, there were concerns regarding the high price point of the headset. The same day, the Securities and Exchange Commission accused Binance and its CEO, Changpeng Zhao, of several violations after months of increased scrutiny of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange. The SEC alleges that Zhao and Binance were involved in deception, conflicts of interest, lack of disclosure, and evasion of the law. General Motors announced an investment of $1 billion to manufacture new heavy-duty pickup trucks, highlighting the continued dependence on traditional gasoline and diesel-powered vehicles even as the auto industry moves towards electric vehicles. In global news, a dam in a Russian-occupied area of southern Ukraine was destroyed, which led to emergency evacuations. The Ukrainian government accused Russian forces of the destruction2.
In the currency market, the U.S. dollar weakened against other major currencies on June 20, 2023, due to weak ISM services activity data for May, which bolstered hopes for a pause in rate hikes at the Federal Reserve meeting the following week. The ISM services PMI index fell to 50.3 in May from 51.9 the previous month, missing forecasts of 52.2. The U.S. Treasury yields dropped, with the benchmark yield on the 10-year note touching 3.66 percent. The greenback fell to 4-day lows of 1.0732 against the euro, 1.2459 against the pound, and 139.09 against the yen, from the previous day's closing quotes of 1.0712, 1.2436, and 139.58, respectively. The greenback also dropped to a 1-week low of 0.9032 against the Swiss franc, a 3-week low of 0.6685 against the Australian dollar, a 4-day low of 0.6100 against the New Zealand dollar, and was near a 4-week low of 1.3389 against the Canadian dollar3.
Regarding the possible factors that affected the NASDAQ on June 20, 2023, the slight losses in the U.S. equities markets on June 19, 2023, might have had some carryover effect. Apple's announcement of its new mixed-reality headset and concerns about regulators potentially increasing capital requirements for large banks were significant factors that could have influenced investor sentiment. Additionally, the weakening of the U.S. dollar and the drop in U.S. Treasury yields could also have had an impact on the NASDAQ.
