$1 Trillion Saudi Investment Pledge, Nvidia Earnings, & The Federal Reserve Split!

Money Masters' Market Pulse Week 47

November 21, 2025

Dear Money Master,

This week delivered a whirlwind of market-moving surprises. The U.S. economy shocked analysts with unexpectedly strong job growth, even as the Federal Reserve remains deeply split on whether more rate cuts are needed, or dangerously premature. On the global front, the White House touted a $1 trillion Saudi investment pledge, but experts warn the flashy commitments may never materialize. Meanwhile, crypto markets are roaring back, with Kraken quietly filing for its IPO, signaling a new era for digital assets.

Tech giants didn’t stay quiet either. Google unveiled major new AI capabilities, Waymo accelerated its robotaxi rollout into three more cities, and Nvidia stunned Wall Street with yet another monster quarter of 62% revenue growth. Earnings season continued with solid results from Palo Alto Networks and an unexpected surge from Lowe’s, driven by booming online and contractor demand. 🌍💼

Crash Expert: “This Looks Like 1929” → 70,000 Hedging Here

Mark Spitznagel, who made $1B in a single day during the 2015 flash crash, warns markets are mimicking 1929. Yeah, just another oracle spouting gloom and doom, right?
