Bloomberg Surveillance hosted by Tom Keene & Paul SweeneyMay 13th, 2025
Featuring:
1) Constance Hunter, Chief Economist at EIU, Matt Miskin, Co-Chief Investment Strategist John Hancock Investment Management, and Kathy Jones, Chief Fixed Income Strategist at Charles Schwab, react to CPI. Before today's CPI reading, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq showed further gains, in spite of some investors feeling wary about the lack of detail in Monday's US-China tariff announcement and the risk of another flare-up between Beijing and Washington, with trade pressures already hitting businesses.
2) Brian Belski, Chief Investment Strategist at BMO Capital Markets, brings us into the market open and discusses his bullish equity stance. The easing of trade tensions between the US and China gives investors hope that the US economy can avoid a recession, with traders now expecting the Federal Reserve to lower rates just twice in 2025.
3) Nancy Tengler, CEO and CIO at Laffer Tengler investments, talks about the potential for renewed bullishness (or bearishness) in equities, and why she believes now is a time to turn to mid caps. Many investors are signaling the shift in trade sentiment will be enough to drive a recovery in global markets, despite some concerns.
4) John Lipsky, former managing director of the International Monetary Fund and distinguished visiting scholar at Johns Hopkins, on the US economy, global economic risks, and the Fed reversing its "red line" approach. With hopes riding high that the US economy can avoid a recession, traders now expect the Federal Reserve to lower rates just twice in 2025.
5) Brian Wieser, Principal at Madison and Wall, talks about trends as upfronts kick off for advertisers, ad spending amid economic uncertainty, and implications of Google and Apple search trial.
