Tech turmoil: Meta nosedives as Google soars, financials firm up
2025-10-30

Tech turmoil: Meta nosedives as Google soars, financials firm up

🌐 Sector Overview: Divergent Paths in Tech and Financials📉 Technology Woes: A dramatic shift in the technology landscape characterizes today's market with stark contrasts. Technology giants see mixed fortunes as Meta (META) takes a substantial hit, plunging 11.94%, possibly due to disappointing earnings or unfavorable news. In contrast, Google (GOOG) impressively surges by 5.20%, signaling investor confidence driven by robust performance metrics or positive market sentiment. Nvidia (NVDA) and Broadcom (AVGO) both decline more than 2%, dragging the semiconductor sector into red territory.🏦 Financial Sector Resilience: The financial sector showcases strength, buoyed by positive gains from major players like JPMorgan Chase (JPM), up 1.66%, Visa (V) with a 2.09% increase, and Wells Fargo (WFC) rising 1.17%. This indicates a favorable investor outlook bolstered by rising interest rates or resilient economic indicators impacting banks and credit services.⚖️ Market Mood and TrendsThe overall market sentiment leans towards caution amidst a mix of tech volatility and financial sector gains. Concerns over tech sector performance, especially post-Meta’s decline, are weighing heavily, although Google’s rise offers a silver lining. Investors appear divided, assessing risks cautiously in tech while showing optimism in financials.💡 Strategic Recommendations🎯 Diversification is Key: Given the mixed market dynamics, investors are encouraged to diversify portfolios, focusing on financials while staying cautious yet watchful in tech. Google might still be a stock to watch, offering potential stability and growth.🔍 Monitoring Tech Trajectories: Stay informed about any tech sector advancements or setbacks, especially within semiconductors and social media platforms, as future fluctuations remain likely.📊 Keep an Eye on Economic Indicators: With the financial sector's promising trend, monitoring macroeconomic indicators like interest rates and consumer confidence levels could assist in making informed investment decisions.For more in-depth insights and analyses, visit InvestingLive.com and follow our real-time updates on market movements.

Laptops with Blu-ray and DVD drives? Yup, Fujitsu is doing it

Laptops with Blu-ray and DVD drives? Yup, Fujitsu is doing it

When’s the last time you saw a laptop with a spinning disc drive on a store shelf? Outside of a pawn shop, I don’t think I’ve seen one in almost 10 years. But Japanese manufacturer Fujitsu just announced brand-new models, complete with fairly recent Intel and AMD processors, that come with Blu-ray or DVD disc drives.These 16-inch FMV Note A designs (spotted by VideoCardz and Fudzilla) aren’t exactly “ultraportable,” with a chassis design that looks dated even though it’s rocking USB-C ports. But on the left is a familiar old friend: a pop-out Blu-ray or DVD drive that’s compatible with full-sized optical discs. A beefier body allows these laptops to be equipped with a full-sized Ethernet port (without the little fold-out port for thinner designs) and an SD card slot. According to machine translation of the Fujitsu site, some models also come with a separate media remote, complete with a touchpad and a dedicated YouTube button.These designs aren’t fully top-of-the-line, featuring Intel 13th-gen and AMD Ryzen 7000 processors, and mostly coming with just 16GB of RAM and as little as 256GB of SSD storage, though upgrades to 64GB and 2TB are available. (Strangely, they come with Copilot buttons on the keyboard despite not qualifying as Copilot+ laptops by Microsoft’s definition. I’m guessing it’s a re-used bin part.) They’re also on the hefty side as you might expect, weighing in at 1.9 kilograms (4.2 pounds) and 26.8mm thick (just over an inch). Prices range from 124,800 yen (~$820 USD) for the base DVD model to 214,280 yen (~$1,410 USD) for the top design with all the trimmings and Blu-ray.The Japanese market is an interesting one in many ways, with a lot of love for hardware that’s hard to find elsewhere. Old-fashioned disc drives are still in high demand there, and stores are selling out of desktop drives as Windows 10 support ends. Japanese buyers appear to have a healthy appetite for Blu-ray and DVD movies as streaming becomes the norm elsewhere... and seeing how that’s going for those of us trying to save a little money, I wonder if they might be onto something.Fujitsu, Toshiba, and a few others are still selling PCs in Japan with disc drives, though more typical models are available as well. Good luck finding one elsewhere, though. I suggest making friends with an importer, or adding a plane ticket to the sticker price if you want one of these machines for yourself.

South Korea, Malaysia seal free trade pact

KUALA LUMPUR -- South Korea and Malaysia have finalized e free trade agreement, which will expand exports of Korean automobiles and steel products to the Southeast Asian nation, Seoul’s third largest trading partner in the region. The deal, signed during the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit in Kuala Lumpur on Sunday, was sealed after six years of negotiations that began in 2019.The pact underscores Seoul’s broader strategy to deepen economic ties with Southeast Asia as it seeks to diversify trade away from reliance on the US and China. At the summit, South Korean President Lee Jae Myung pledged to raise annual trade with ASEAN countries to $300 billion, up from last year’s $192.8 billion.Korea and Malaysia have already traded nearly freely with South Korea under the 2007 ASEAN-Korea FTA and the 2019 Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, which removed tariffs on more than 90% of goods. But major Korean export sectors, such as automobiles and steel, remained shielded under Malaysia’s industrial policy. The new bilateral deal dismantles those barriers, giving Korea’s carmakers and steel producers significantly greater access to one of ASEAN’s most promising markets. KOREAN AUTOS AND STEEL’S BROADER ACCESS Under the new agreement, Malaysia will cut or eliminate tariffs on 682 products, while South Korea will do so on 288. The deal will give Korean automakers greater access to Malaysia’s fast-growing car market, the second-largest in ASEAN, where domestic brands such as Proton and Perodua jointly hold a 70% share.Tariffs on key electric vehicle components, including completely knocked down (CKD) kits, will be abolished, while duties on finished electric sport utility vehicles will drop to 15% from 30%. For steelmakers, tariffs on nine key cold-rolled products will be removed, and rates on others such as hot-rolled steel will fall to 10% from 15%.In return, Seoul will open its market further to Malaysian agricultural and marine products, including tropical fruits such as durians and pineapples, as well as shellfish. Malaysia also agreed to scrap foreign ownership limits in its automotive manufacturing sector, a move expected to attract more Korean investment in electric vehicle and component assembly.Officials view the deal as a stepping stone to expand bilateral FTAs with other ASEAN members after clinching separate deals with Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia and the Philippines.The pact still requires domestic ratification in both countries before taking effect, but trade officials in Seoul expect it to strengthen economic cooperation and reduce geopolitical risks amid the intensifying US-China trade dispute.
