This week’s discussion focused on encouraging inflation data, steady consumer spending, and the market implications of continued AI-driven investment. The team reviewed June CPI results, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh’s congressional testimony, and the latest Beige Book findings ahead of the July FOMC meeting. While inflation showed signs of moderation, panelists noted that price pressures remain above target and are likely to keep the Fed on hold. The conversation also explored market rotation away from some AI leaders toward cyclical sectors, improving earnings trends, resilient credit markets, and the potential for broader economic participation as growth expands beyond mega-cap technology.
