US banks posted strong results on record ECM and trading revenue off the back of the SpaceX IPO and AI infrastructure fundraising. ↓ WHAT’S DOWN — A tech-led sell-off pulled the S&P 500 down 1.5% and the Nasdaq 2.9%. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index tumbled almost 10%, closing more than 20% below its June peak. Materials and tech led an ASX pullback. ! BIGGEST SURPRISES — June US inflation came in cooler than expected, even as several Fed officials stayed hawkish. China's Q2 GDP grew just 4.3% — its weakest since late 2022 — with a knock-on risk for Australian iron ore names like BHP, Rio Tinto and Fortescue. ◎ WHAT TO WATCH — Earnings season steps up this week, with Alphabet and Tesla both reporting. On Thursday the ECB delivers its rate decision, with a hold expected, and Australia's June jobs data lands, with unemployment tipped to stay near 4.4%. ◈ BIGGER PICTURE —  Debate over the cause of the semiconductor sell-off: capex sustainability, open-source competition, an AI earnings bubble? The next few weeks of tech earnings reporting should show whether this was a healthy reset or the start of something bigger.
