Good morning and welcome to Markets Desk.
The inflation playbook is getting rewritten in real time. Seventy-five days into what MarketWatch is calling the tariff war, some assets are tracking historical inflation patterns while others are breaking sharply from the script. Equities in particular are defying conventional hedging logic, raising hard questions about whether old correlations still hold.
Turning to the Fed, Wall Street has effectively written off Kevin Warsh as a credible vehicle for the rate cuts President Trump is pushing for. Fortune reports that markets simply don't believe Warsh can deliver, and that skepticism is baked into rate expectations. The gap between what the White House wants and what traders are pricing is widening by the week.
And on the structural side of finance, the biggest names in banking — Dimon, Fraser, Solomon — are all talking about artificial intelligence reshaping headcount. Roughly sixty percent of financial services firms are already seeing workflow changes, but the picture is mixed. Some executives see redeployment, others see reduction, and the honest answer is that nobody on the floor quite knows yet.
That's the tape.
