[시장 분석] 유럽 증시 상승, 하락을 시사하는 미국 주가지수 선물과 대조…엔비디아, 황의 축출 검토

European bourses (STOXX 600 +0.4%) are broadly on a firmer footing, in contrast to the negative sentiment seen across Asia and US equity futures. The region appears to be benefiting from its relatively high exposure to industrials/financials, and less so in the Tech space, which has come under renewed pressure today. Overnight, it was reported that Nvidia CEO Huang had another affair, but this time with an executive at his own company. As it stands, the board is reportedly voting on whether to oust Huang; Bloomberg suggested that long-serving CFO Kress and hardware engineer Buck are the favourites on an interim basis. Industry execs expect short-term supply chain operations to remain stable, but given Huang’s excellent relationship with manufacturers, his removal could result in a slowdown in capacity expansion and/or aggressive investment. With a potential ousting today, Nvidia shares are down by 5.5% in pre-market trade; peers such as SK Hynix (-2%) follow the sentiment lower. However, competitors such as AMD (+4%) and Broadcom (+3.6%) both gain. Back to European sectors; Consumer Products leads, followed by Retail and then Healthcare. Unsurprisingly, Tech holds towards the foot of the pile, joined closely by Basic Resources. As for key movers this morning: Adecco (+14%, Q3 results topped forecasts), Siemens (+4.4%, Q4 revenue grows and raises mid-term rev. outlook), Allianz (+1.5%, reports record Q3 profit), Rolls Royce (+2.3%, announced GBP 1.5bln share buyback), Persimmon (+5%, generally positive trading update and optimism surrounding 2027). US equity futures are trading in the red, with underperformance in the NQ, pressured by losses in Nvidia (see above). Focus ahead will be on the potential Huang removal, and also on a slew of Fed speak, where markets will look to see whether any more policymakers show openness to a larger 50bps hike in December.
