Market Sentiment Analysis

Equity futures are drifting higher despite a deep divide within the US Federal Reserve over the direction of monetary policy. Despite the minutes noting the potential for interest rate hikes, markets, for now, anticipate two more interest rate cuts. The New York Federal Reserve published a paper suggesting that US consumers shoulder 90% of tariff costs, as President Trump continues to pin his success on tariffs amid an affordability crisis. Earnings from Walmart will dominate the non-tariff headlines today, after DoorDash missed expectations, and Carvana plunged in after-hours trading.

Airbnb Fundamental Analysis

Airbnb is the best-known online marketplace and broker for short-term rentals and short-term homestays. Despite its permanent ban on parties and events, the company continues to face stiff opposition to its properties in core markets. Still, it has announced plans to become an Everything App powered by AI.

So, why am I bullish on ABNB following its earnings release?

While Airbnb delivered a mixed earnings report, beating on revenue but missing on earnings per share, I turned bullish amid its AI travel pivot and upbeat first-quarter 2026 guidance. Long-term structural cost savings from its AI integration and the global launch of reserve now, pay later remain underappreciated. I am equally bullish on its Experiences and Services segment, focused on experiential and remote work-friendly stays.
