US Equity Investors to Focus on Inflation Data as April Ceasefire Tested Following Iran-Israel Overnight Strikes

US equity investors will focus on the inflation data, a worsening conflict in the Middle East, and the likely public listing of SpaceX this week.* The consumer and wholesale price indexes for May are due Wednesday and the Thursday, respectively, with initial jobless claims likely on the latter. Michigan consumer sentiment preliminary and inflation expectations is due Friday. Existing home sales and ADP employment change are set for Tuesday.* The strength in the CPI is largely coming from energy, with gasoline up roughly 8% on the month, alongside idiosyncratic pressures, Jefferies said in a note Friday. "Overall, the firm print looks somewhat skewed by energy and one-offs, but still keeps the inflation backdrop sticky in the near term."* "Seasonal adjustment factors have been haircutting seasonally unadjusted price changes more so in recent years than previously which could have a dampening effect," a Scotiabank note said Friday.* Israel and Iran exchanged fire that extended into Monday morning, in a resumption of violence that tested President Donald Trump's Middle East ceasefire, The Wall Street Journal reported Monday. Trump told The Financial Times that Israel would have to accept any deal the US reaches with Iran, saying "I call all the shots," CNN reported same day.* The overnight exchange will only worsen a "chaotic diplomatic process" with the US, Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson was cited as saying in a Reuters news report. Esmaeil Baghaei reportedly added that it would also further exacerbate Tehran's suspicion toward Washington.* SpaceX (SPCX), which likely IPO on June 12, Amazon-backed (AMZN) Anthropic, and Microsoft-backed (MSFT) OpenAI's upcoming public offerings may drag down broader stock markets, Research Affiliates founder Rob Arnott told Bloomberg News on Friday. Index funds will have to trim their current positions to make room for new entrants.* Quarterly earnings due include Oracle (ORCL), Adobe (ADBE), Lennar (LEN), and Trip.com (TCOM).

Nvidia Discloses New AI Chip to Power Windows PCs

Nvidia (NVDA) has announced a new artificial intelligence chip to power Microsoft (MSFT) Windows personal computers, called RTX Spark, entering the consumer PC processor market.RTX Spark delivers the full Nvidia AI and graphics technology stack to creators, AI developers and gamers, according to a joint statement on Sunday.RTX Spark will be available this fall from manufacturers including ASUS, Dell (DELL), HP (HPQ), Lenovo, Microsoft Surface and MSI, to be followed by models from Acer and GIGABYTE."The PC is being reinvented," Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang said. "For forty years, you launched apps. Click. Type. With RTX Spark and Microsoft Windows, you ask -- and the PC does the work."These new PCs are designed for the era of personal AI agents, Nvidia said."This marks a key milestone in the rich, full-stack collaboration between Microsoft and Nvidia spanning gaming, AI and cloud -- from DirectX and RTX to Nvidia-accelerated AI workloads on Azure -- driving end-to-end innovation for our shared customers," Pavan Davuluri, executive vice president, Windows + Devices, said in a blogpost on Sunday. "These next-generation Windows PCs represent the next step on that journey."RTX Spark marks Nvidia's formal entry into the consumer PC processor market, Wedbush Securities said in a report on Monday."We believe (Nvidia's) previous work around using (graphics processing units) to enable AI workloads in PCs should benefit (its) push to define the agentic PC," Wedbush analyst Matt Bryson wrote. "But we also wonder how much even a successful implementation might mean for (Nvidia), given the ultimately small size of the PC market (vs. NVDA's accelerator business)."Nvidia's foray into the AI-enhanced consumer PC business could hurt Intel (INTC) in particular, Bryson said.Bryson sees "limited near-term competitive implications" from the Nvidia-Microsoft collaboration.Nvidia said it is collaborating with Adobe (ADBE) to "rearchitect" Adobe Premiere and Photoshop for RTX Spark.Shares of Nvidia were up 5% in Monday trading and Microsoft rose 2.6%.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of Adobe Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:ADBE held its annual customer experience conference Adobe Summit earlier this week, announcing new innovations for customer experience orchestration. A key highlight of the conference was the unveiling of its first agentic product, Adobe CX Experience, to simplify customer lifecycle management, including acquiring prospective customers and driving conversions. Other highlights of the conference include the launch of Adobe Brand Intelligence and expansion of Adobe GenStudio solutions. The Summit signals ADBE's move into agentic solutions, where it has lagged large enterprise software peers in AI Agent products. Thus, we view the launch of Adobe CX Experience positively as a step toward driving greater AI adoption and monetization. ADBE also announced a $25B stock buyback program that will run through April 2030. For context, ADBE spent $11.7B in FY 25, and while we welcome returning capital to shareholders, we do not expect the buyback program to be particularly impactful.
