      Live Stock News: Alibaba Claims AI Baby Also Smart, Market Awaits FOMC Policy Update
      Happy Wednesday investors, it's January 29th: FOMC Rate decision day. Though the market expects no change to monetary policy based on CME futures pricing, futures have rarely been correct when the FOMC changes policy, so watch later today as we push out the news after the 2 pm ET decision.
      The market is slightly lower, in a holding pattern until Federal Reserve President Jerome Powell makes statements and answers questions at a press conference after the policy update, where he is expected to react to stubbornly high inflation numbers and employment. Aside from that, expect big news today from tech giants $Tesla (TSLA.US)$, $Meta Platforms (META.US)$, and $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$, especially after a startup came and supposedly developed a powerful AI with chump change. Let's look at Live Stock News:
      $Spirit Airlines (SAVEQ.US)$, a bankrupt small cap at this point, jumped 40% Wednesday after reportedly saying no to a buyout bid   $Frontier Group (ULCC.US)$ worth $400M for 19% of controlling shares. Barrons' George Glover said that investors are hoping it's a sign that Spirit hopes for even better terms, especially under the supposedly deal-friendly Trump administration.
      $T-Mobile US (TMUS.US)$ shares climbed 8%, the highest on the S&P 500 by percentage save for $F5 Inc (FFIV.US)$, as both stocks rose on earnings beats. T-Mobile reported beating estimates in the past quarter, and issued its best start-of-year guidance ever, expecting to book up to 6 million new customers in the coming year.
      $Alibaba (BABA.US)$ stock climbed after the Chinese shopping firm claimed its AI was even better than DeepSeeks in certain benchmarks. Alibaba calls its AI Qwen 2.5. $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$ fell back 3% after the news.
      Within industries tracked by moomoo, $Data Center (LIST2521.US)$ and $Stargate Concept Stocks (LIST23582.US)$ were falling, weighed down by Nvidia, desptie some of the smaller market caps showing strength.

      Elsewhere in the economy,   $Crude Oil Futures(APR5) (CLmain.US)$ fell $73/barrel. Gold fell while silver climbed, and treasured.   $Bitcoin (BTC.CC)$ hovered at $101,000.
      Overall, the market was down and waiting for news Wednesday, just past 10:40 am ET the     $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ fell 0.26%, the         $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$ climbed 0.18%, and the     $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ fell 0.63%.
      Wednesday morning, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said crude oil inventories held by firms in the U.S. grew by 3.46M barrels this week.
      Check-in for FOMC news later today. After shocking the market with a 50 bp cut, then two 25 bp cuts in successive meetings, the FOMC might take today's meeting as a chance to pause. The committee's own expectations for cuts this year were cut in half in the December meeting, where they said they were done raising rates for sure, but the amount of times they expected to cut in 2025 was now just two times instead of four.
      There will be no economic and cut forecast dot plot today, but Powell's answers may illuminate their plans nonetheless. If all goes well with earnings and the FOMC, the Dow is within 140 points of a fresh all-time high.
      Yesterday, one insightful user named @Jaguar8 said that if DeepSeek were truly a market shake up, we should expect partnership and further news coming soon about the firm's AI capability. Just another chat bot in the app store may be enough to scare the market for one day, but as earnings reports come in from tech giants, stability and earnings will always be what the market falls back on.
