Insider Flex: Elon Musk Buys 2.6M Tesla Shares 🚀

😎 Market Vibes

It's Fed week, and the market's doing that awkward thing where it rallies a little but doesn't make eye contact. Everyone's pricing in a 25bps cut, but nobody's sure if Powell will actually play nice. Toss in China going after U.S. chipmakers and Elon casually dropping millions on TSLA shares, and you've got a Monday cocktail of optimism, tension, and just a hint of delusion.

🎢 Optimism… but on a 2-hour expiration

• 📈 Fed Week Float: U.S. futures are drifting slightly higher as traders brace for the Fed. Cautious optimism? Or just everyone hedged and hoping Powell doesn't kill the party?

• 🚗 Tesla Insider Flex: Elon just bought ~$1B worth of Tesla shares, juicing the stock pre-market. Traders love it when the richest guy in the room hits the buy button.

• 🧠 China Chip Crackdown: Beijing launched fresh probes into U.S. analog chipmakers, dragging down TXN, ON, and ADI. Beijing's targeting old-school chips now - not even your calculator's safe.

• 📉 S&P on Edge: The index could see its worst week since April if the Fed goes hawkish or the cut feels "meh." It’s starting to feel like the calm before someone screams “rate shock.”

• 🇨🇳 China Slows Down (Again): August industrial output and retail sales both missed. Domestic demand looks rough, and exports aren't saving the day either.

💸 Trade Talk

Elon just went shopping - snagging ~2.6 million Tesla shares and giving the stock a pre-market jolt. No speech, no tweetstorm, just vibes and a Form 4. It's the first major insider buy in a while, after weeks of sliding deliveries, thinner margins, and price cut noise. Whether it's confidence or cleanup, the market's eating it up (for now).

🧠 Big Brain Energy

The Fed is widely expected to cut rates by 25 basis points this Wednesday - but the futures curve currently has about 69 bps of cuts priced in for the rest of 2025. If Powell bends dovish, markets might rally. If he doesn't, this could trigger one of those correction‑type dips people have been warning about.

🧨The Outrage Meter

China firing probes at U.S. chipmakers and launching anti‑dumping investigations on analog ICs? Meanwhile, Nvidia is under antitrust scrutiny related to its Mellanox acquisition. It's like trade wars got a new burner.
