Your Daily FinanceScope for July 10, 2025
You should have listened to your mother and planned for a rainy day, it's true. But even if you had, this is more than a rainy day. It's a typhoon. Kicking yourself is only adding to your pain. Give yourself an emotional break instead.
No matter how conservative you are with spending, your budget is still in trouble. It's time for radical cost cutting measures. Think Edward Scissorhands if you need a reference, then let yourself go to town.
Circumstances may look dire, but conditions are actually ideal for some things. Giving is not off the table, for example. Just look at it in the radically changed light and you'll see you still have plenty to offer, and that's just in one column.
Your panic is drowning out your thoughts. Try to take a more intellectual approach to your own personal rescue plan instead of being so emotional. At this rate, money is just the half of it.
You may think you're still clinging tightly to your money but, all jokes aside, it left the building long ago. Once you realize that all you're holding onto is a security blanket, letting go will be that much easier. Feeling lost with your career? Guidance is one click away!
Be open minded about the new life you find yourself living. It's not by choice, but you can still choose to make the most of it or be miserable. Experiment a little. You may find much to be thankful for.
It feels like your synapses are just not connecting properly. That's not the case, though. No one can put two and two together just yet. For now, put your need to understand aside and focus on having a simple, old fashioned kind of good day.
It's not that harmony at home is upset, exactly. The discord is caused by a shift in the balance of power. You may be forced to agree to terms you would have objected to in fatter times. If it's merely about decorating, consider yourself lucky.
You relate well to everyone you meet today. Since you're in the business of impressing others, you might as well take your show straight to the bank. You can't afford to waste a single opportunity.
Everyone is wary of new schemes. There's just no convincing anyone that you have what they need. Changing your approach isn't the issue. Don't stop short of changing your product.
People are in need of some inspiration. Double check your ambitions. As long as you're not selling the Brooklyn Bridge, then share your visions. People with money in their wallets will be affected.
Maintaining the status quo is unrealistic. But change isn't as bad as you're making it out to be, either. Once all the inner chatter dies down, you'll be able to focus on the present and plan for the future. What does your moon sign mean? Learn more about your emotional world with a Moon Sign Reading! 🌙

Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures slump after Trump's sweeping tariffs, Amazon's earnings flub
US stock futures sank on Friday after President Trump officially hit virtually every US trading partner with sweeping tariff hikes, pushing ahead with his plan to remake the global trade order. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures (YM=F) dropped 1%, while those on the S&P 500 (ES=F) also fell 1%. Contracts on the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) dived 1.1%, on the heels of a losing day for the major US gauges. The retreat in stocks came as markets assessed the reshaped US trade landscape after President Trump on Thursday hit dozens of countries — including crucial partners Taiwan and India — with steep new tariffs. His executive order formally authorized a hike in levies on Canada to 35%, to go into effect on Friday. Most of the other "reciprocal" rates range from 15% to 40% (though the baseline remains 10%) and will be implemented in seven days. The White House also confirmed details of trade agreements negotiated by some trading partners before the Aug 1. deadline for "Liberation Day" tariffs to hit. But Trump said the implementation of the hiked levies will be pushed back by seven days, opening up scope for more talks.

The performance of its AWS cloud unit failed to live up to lofty expectations set by rivals Google (GOOG, GOOGL) and Microsoft (MSFT), sending its shares down over 8%. But Apple (AAPL) stock rose after its results beat expectations, boosted by surprisingly strong iPhone sales. A blockbuster week on Wall Street is set to end not just with trade turmoil but also with the July jobs report, which is expected to show hiring slowed while unemployment ticked higher. The key indicator of US economic health will be closely watched by the Federal Reserve, whose preferred inflation gauge on Thursday showed signs of increasing price pressures. Chevron (CVX) beat analyst estimates on Friday for second-quarter profit as record oil and gas production and lower capital expenditure helped the US oil producer boost earnings despite weaker crude prices. Chevron shares were flat in premarket trading. Reuters reports: Read more here. Exxon beats profit estimates with higher production despite weak oil prices Shares in Exxon Mobil (XOM) rose more than 1% before the bell on Friday after the company beat Wall Street estimate for second-quarter profit as higher oil and gas production helped the top US oil producer overcome lower crude prices.

US stock losses pick up pace after Trump's tariff blitz The retreat in US stock futures accelerated on Friday morning as Wall Street weighed the likely fallout from President Trump's trade war.

Magna raises sales forecast, beats quarterly view on cost cuts
(Reuters) -Canadian auto parts supplier Magna International raised annual sales forecast and topped second-quarter estimates on Friday, benefiting from its cost-cutting measures. The company had said in May it would take steps such as restructuring and reduced capital and engineering spending to cushion the hit from sweeping tariffs. U.S. President Donald Trump's levies have pressured auto companies across the supply chain, forcing suppliers to absorb more expenses or renegotiate with automakers. Peers Aptiv and BorgWarner also raised their annual forecasts on Thursday, banking on stronger auto parts demand. Magna expects 2025 sales to be between $40.4 billion and $42.0 billion, compared with its prior forecast of $40.0 billion and $41.6 billion. On an adjusted basis, it earned $1.44 per share for the quarter through June, above analysts' estimate of $1.14 per share, according to data compiled by LSEG. Total quarterly sales fell about 3% to $10.63 billion, while the estimate was $10.23 billion.

Design software maker Figma extends gains after blockbuster NYSE trading debut
(Reuters) -Design software maker Figma's shares rose another 10% in premarket trading on Friday, extending strong debut-day gains after a blowout U.S. initial public offering that has reignited the tech listing market. The San Francisco, California-based company's shares closed at $115.5 on Thursday, compared with its IPO price of $33. The 250% surge lifted Figma's market value to nearly $68 billion, far exceeding the $20-billion valuation in a now-scrapped buyout deal with Photoshop maker Adobe. Figma's $1.22-billion offering, the fourth-largest U.S. IPO of the year, is being seen as a potential catalyst for other startups eyeing a flotation after a three-year freeze in the tech listings market. The deal's strong reception renewed hopes of a broader reopening of the pipeline, as private companies and investors look to capitalize on improving market conditions and strong demand for growth names. Figma, which has highlighted its focus on AI, has also benefited from Wall Street's enthusiasm for the technology. The boom fueled a sharp rally in tech stocks over the past year and drove up valuations and investor demand for companies seen as central to the AI ecosystem. "In order for application software companies to remain relevant and provide value to end users, they will need to implement GenAI capabilities which represents a potential catalyst for adoption and increased usage of Figma," D.A. Davidson analyst Gil Luria said in a note. Founded in 2012 and led by CEO Dylan Field, Figma provides cloud-based collaborative design tools, with a roster of marquee clients including Google, Microsoft, Netflix and Uber. Though the blockbuster performance is good news for the IPO market, particularly for high-growth tech listings, the sharp surge suggests Figma may have priced its IPO too conservatively, potentially leaving money on the table. Bankers typically target a first-day rise of 10% to 20% to balance strong demand with optimal fundraising.
