David Bahnsen reviews a volatile news weekend and announces The Bahnsen Group’s new Santa Barbara office. Markets were mixed (Dow flat, S&P up 0.4%, Nasdaq up ~1%) amid unusual breadth and rotation dynamics, while AI-related “pick-and-shovel” names faced pressure tied to funding concerns and slowing expectations for the rate of AI capex growth. The 10-year yield rose to 5.14% and sector performance diverged sharply (consumer discretionary led; utilities lagged). He notes Goldman Sachs earning more from lending against equities than equity trading, signaling rising leverage and potential volatility, and highlights a NASDAQ/2000-style chart comparison. He discusses violent unrest in France, a 50/50 Senate outlook and likely Democratic House control, key economic data (US industrial production +0.7%, China Q3 GDP 4.5%), surging US mortgage payments, falling homebuilder sentiment, and Fed signals favoring no October hike but likely December. Earnings season accelerates, with midstream energy updates and a forthcoming Friday episode on range-bound markets.
