US stocks have been predicted to start Monday trading in the red, as they ended last week, with investors continuing to worry about rising bond yields, stubborn inflation and the economic fallout from higher oil prices. Dow Jones futures were down around 262 points or 0.4%, while S&P 500...
US equity investors will remain focused on President Donald Trump's attempts to force Iran to reopen
This is nightmare fuel for a historically expensive stock market that had already priced in additional rate cuts.
Stocks looked set to fall again on Monday as investors continued to worry about higher inflation, with the U.S. and Iran seemingly making no progress in their ongoing peace talks. The three major indexes tumbled on Friday, dragged down by soaring U.S. Treasury yields. The lack of a peace deal to end the conflict in the Middle East has caused investors to fret about a flare-up in inflation, with shipping through the Strait of Hormuz still disrupted.
Paring down the central bank's balance sheet, or doing nothing at all, poses potentially dire consequences for the stock market.
Jerome Powell's successor and the Chicago Fed president foresee wildly different interest rate outcomes from the evolution of AI.

Investors step into the week after a Friday in the red, spurred by a stable of geopolitical uncertainties post Trump-Xi summit, rising bond yields, and sticky inflation.
It's incredibly rare when a sitting Fed chair interjects their opinion on stock valuations -- and when this happens, it shouldn't be ignored.

And the longer that oil prices stay up, the longer we're going to have rising inflation. And this is the first time we've really seen the ten-year inflation expectations cross 2.5%.

The Nasdaq Composite and the S&P 500 fell from record highs as inflation concerns pushed Treasury yi
Interest rates, economic growth expectations, inflation trends, and credit conditions often determine which parts of the market lead and which fall behind. Dow Industrials trading near the very round 50,000 level is beginning to resemble a potential double top relative to the February peak. Bearish RSI divergence, marked by lower highs in April and May even as the Dow pushed upward, suggests upside momentum is fading.
May 15 (Reuters) - Futures tracking the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 tumbled more than 1% on Friday, with an AI-driven rally in U.S. stocks poised to stall, as Treasury yields jumped on concerns about
The central bank may be transforming from Wall Street's foundation to a liability before our eyes.
Stocks looked set to fall on Friday as investors fretted about soaring Treasury yields and President Donald Trump’s summit with China's leader Xi Jinping concluded without any meaningful breakthrough on trade. “For some time, analysts have been puzzled by equity markets’ resilience in the face of rising bond yields and clear inflationary pressures,” said Kathleen Brooks, research director at the foreign-exchange brokerage XTB. “Today we may see the pressure of rising bond yields start to weigh on equities, and futures prices suggest that U.S. indices will pull back from record highs later today and could close the week on a dampener.”
We got a hot April Consumer Price Index (CPI) number, driven in a big way by energy costs, but even core CPI was surprisingly high, driven by a jump in shelter costs for the first time in a while. The April Producer Price Index (PPI) was even further above estimates. On May 12th, the ...
Higher inflation may not be as short-term as the president thinks, based on what history tells us.
The central bank that Wall Street has become accustomed to may be on the verge of significant change.
Oil prices moved slightly lower on Wednesday, but markets were buoyed to new heights by the strength of the tech sector. Plus, the new Federal Reserve chair cleared his final confirmation hurdle this afternoon, which likely alleviated some lingering uncertainty at the central bank, and among investors. Incoming Fed Chair Kevin Warsh was confirmed by the Senate with a vote of 54-45 on Wednesday afternoon, becoming the 17th person to take on the job.
