Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks saw continued pressure this week as concerns about overvaluation weighed on the sector ahead of NVIDIA’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) results release for its second fiscal quarter. The company beat Wall Street projections on revenue, earnings and profits, but shares still fell in extended trading on Tuesday (August 26) after it reported no H20 sales to China, where competition from domestic firms is heating up. John Murillo, chief business officer at B2BROKER, suggested the pullback could present a short-term buying opportunity for high-quality names with strong fundamentals, but cautioned that it could be the start of a broader correction. Reports that DeepSeek will train its newest AI models on Huawei chips and Cambricon Technologies’ (SHA:688256) 4,300 percent revenue surge underscore the shifting AI landscape. Still, optimism wasn’t absent: NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang pointed to accelerating global demand and unveiled a US$60 billion buyback program to reassure investors. “All in…

The gold price was on the rise this week, breaking through US$3,400 per ounce once again. It’s been pushed higher by US dollar weakness, as well as Federal Reserve turmoil. President Donald Trump has been pressuring Fed Chair Jerome Powell to cut interest rates for months, and on Monday (August 25) the situation developed further when Trump posted a letter on his social media platform Truth Social. In it, he said he was removing Lisa Cook from her position on the central bank’s board of governors due to allegations of mortgage fraud. Cook, who has been voting to hold rates steady, was due to serve until 2038; she has now filed a lawsuit asking for Trump’s order to be declared ‘unlawful and void.’ The move has spurred questions about whether Trump can actually fire her — while the Federal Reserve Act doesn’t allow him to remove Fed officials at will,…

The data showed that the Canadian economy shrank 0.4 percent in the second quarter and declined 1.6 percent on an annualized basis. The decrease comes following first-quarter gains of 0.5 percent and a 2 percent annualized increase. Much of the decrease was attributed to a 7.5 percent drop in exports compared to Q1. Canadian exports had risen 1.4 percent in the first three months of the year as US companies increased imports to get ahead of incoming tariffs.Excluding the lower costs at the pumps, CPI remained steady at 2.5 percent, the same increase as May and June. On an industry level, new monthly data for June shows that the resource sector grew by 0.1 percent after two months of declines, primarily driven by a 2.6 percent gain in the oil and gas subsector, with oil sands…
