Bloomberg Surveillance hosted by Tom Keene & Paul SweeneyJuly 25th, 2025
Featuring:
1) David Rosenberg, Founder and President Rosenberg Research & Associates, joins for a discussion on rates, US inflation, and the importance of Fed independence. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is under attack by President Trump, who is using a "flood the zone" strategy to pressure the Fed to lower interest rates. Trump's approach involves personally attacking Powell, questioning the Fed's spending, and discussing potential replacements, according to the article.
2) Brian Wieser, Principal at Madison & Wall, talks about the Skydance-Paramount deal getting FCC approval. The US Federal Communications Commission approved Paramount Global's merger with Skydance Media after the Trump administration extracted concessions on the news and entertainment company's political coverage and diversity practices. As part of the accord, Skydance vowed to ensure that the new company's programming embodies a diversity of viewpoints from across the political and ideological spectrum, according to FCC Chairman Brendan Carr.
3) Alicia Levine, Head of Investment Strategy and Equities at BNY, discusses her S&P 500 target and talks the pain trade and surprises to the upside. Stocks dipped at the end of a record-setting week after lackluster results from Volkswagen AG and Puma SE. Goldman's trading desk wrote in a note to clients "If you are nervous, the market is making it very easy to rent hedges" as a slew of risks loom over the market's record advance.
4) Marta Norton, Chief Investment Strategist at Empower, on asset allocation and potential for market volatility in the second half of 2025.

Featuring:
1) Stuart Kaiser, Head: US Equity Trading Strategy at Citi, joins for an extended discussion about the equity rally and fundamentals driving markets higher. Global equities continued their rally as bulls drew fresh conviction from signs the US may strike more trade deals soon after clinching a pact with Japan.
2) Brian Belski, Chief Investment Strategist at BMO Capital Markets, brings us into the market open and talks about why he's remained bullish amid so much policy uncertainty.

3) Michael Feroli, Chief U.S. Economist at JPMorgan, talks about the labor market, inflation, and Fed independence. President Trump will visit the Federal Reserve to tour a construction site he has criticized for cost overruns. Trump has been attacking Fed Chair Jerome Powell for not cutting rates and has criticized the Fed's $2.5 billion renovation project.
4) Natasha Sarin, President and co-founder at Yale Budget Lab, talks about their most recent findings from the YBL on the state of US tariffs. President Trump suggested that he would not go below 15% as he sets reciprocal tariff rates ahead of an Aug. 1 deadline. The president has left the door open for countries to make agreements that could lower the tariff rates, and some countries are aiming to bring down their tariff rates to the 15% level.
5) Lisa Mateo joins with the latest headlines in newspapers across the US, including a WSJ report on NBCUniversal reportedly discussing launching a sports cable network and USA Today's report on how hotter summers have travelers ditching the beach for "coolcations."
