Nvidia's stock fell due to accusations of antitrust issues and monopolistic practices in China, which impacted its reputation as a 'best of breed' stock. This led to a sector-wide sell-off, dragging down the NASDAQ and breaking a winning streak.
Nvidia's fall caused the NASDAQ to decline, breaking a winning streak. The S&P 500 closed down by around 25 handles, but the sell-off was described as minor and not indicative of a broader market collapse.
The unemployment rate ticked up from 4.1% to 4.2%, partly due to the impact of a hurricane and strikes. However, the overall trajectory of employment remains positive, with non-farm payroll jobs increasing significantly from 12-14,000 to 277,000.
The market has seen 57 record closes this year, with the S&P 500 up 27%. Despite global events like wars and economic uncertainty, the market has continued to perform strongly, driven by significant amounts of money on the sidelines being put to work.
Peter advises having a shopping list of stocks ready to buy during pullbacks, as these moments present opportunities to buy stocks at a discount. He emphasizes the importance of doing homework on companies and only averaging into a stock if it continues to rise.
Jade Shenker is disrupting commercial real estate by applying residential marketing strategies to commercial spaces. She uses social media, events, and YouTube to market properties globally, which has allowed her to sell spaces at record prices, such as a commercial condo for nearly $1,300 per square foot.
Jade comes from a family of real estate developers, and her father taught her the business from a young age, including how to negotiate deals by cold-calling through the Village Voice. Despite being an only child, she was encouraged to enter the male-dominated industry, which shaped her competitive and risk-taking approach.
