Salesforce（CRM）的股票在周四下跌，原因是公司公布了第一季度業績。公司首次近20年來錯過了收入預期，並削減了訂閱和支持收入預測。CFRA Research的高級股票分析師Angelo Zino參加早安簡報討論這些結果。Zino指出，公司對人工智慧投資可能會損害Salesforce的收入軌跡，由於需爭取這些預算，“這是Salesforce營運的一種阻力，而非助推力”。關於股價暴跌，Zino認為“這有點過度反應”，儘管有些領域令人失望，但該公司仍然在該季度實現了11%的增長。他還指出，由於公司的“循環收入性質”，今年下半年可能出現增長。

As investors aimed to profit from the recent rally in industrial metals markets, copper continued to decline from a record high, while aluminum dropped from a two-year peak. Despite a sharp rally earlier this year due to supply constraints and positive global economic sentiment, the rapid increase in prices has raised concerns of a disconnect with the physical market. The interest in copper has been supported by improvements in manufacturing and industrial sectors, supply squeezes, and optimism about its use in renewables and AI. Consumers may re-engage if copper prices fall toward $9,500, but the downside appears limited as investors remain interested in buying during price dips. Current pressure on Chinese smelters due to ore shortages may further support metal prices.

Contract signings for U.S. home purchases fell by the most in three years in April as high interest rates impact the housing market, resulting in the lowest level of activity since the start of the pandemic in 2020. The National Association of Realtors reported a 7.7% drop in the pending home sales index to 72.3 in April from an upwardly revised 78.3 in March. The decrease is attributed to escalating interest rates affecting home buying, but optimism for improved conditions arises from anticipated rate cuts by the Federal Reserve later in the year.
