This week in investing, the focus is on strong retail sales, high jobless claims, a tech stock sell-off, China's liquidity injection into its banking sector, and larger, weaker Treasury auctions. Despite strong retail sales, the market expects a rate cut by the Fed in September. Jobless claims surged, adding pressure for a rate cut. Tech stocks, including Nvidia, Taiwan Semiconductor, AMD, Microsoft, and Netflix, faced a tough week due to geopolitical tensions and cybersecurity issues. China injected over $100 billion into its banking system to stabilize its economy. Treasury auctions are getting larger with weaker demand, raising concerns about government spending and debt management.
