Daily Market Recap (October 1st 2025)

These articles provide a comprehensive snapshot of the global financial and political landscape in October 2025, dominated by the impacts of a U.S. government shutdown which led to economic data blackouts, rising gold prices as a safe haven, and concerns from the Treasury Secretary about a potential GDP hit. Auto industry reports show a mixed picture, with China's dominant EV maker BYD experiencing a sales decline, while U.S. automakers like Ford and GM saw Q3 sales increases driven by record EV demand before federal incentives expired. Investor sentiment is explored through Jim Cramer's advice on long-term wealth building and a review of the biggest stock winners of the third quarter, alongside a prediction that Millennials and Gen Z will soon control a third of ultra-wealth due to generational transfer and tech fortunes. Finally, the political and economic implications of the Trump administration are highlighted by the cancellation of climate change funding to blue states, threats to late-night TV advertising, the controversy surrounding Donald Trump Jr.'s crypto venture, and Russia's plan to fund the Ukraine war through tax hikes and budget cuts to the civilian economy.
