Description

Carl Quintanilla, Sara Eisen and David Faber broke the latest for stocks after another busy morning of data and earnings – plus the Senate Finance Committee’s Confirmation Hearing for Trump’s Treasury pick Scott Bessent.

 

To start the hour: Fed Governor Waller joined the team to breakdown recent inflation data, telling Sara that rate cuts ARE possible in the next few months. He also noted that December’s CPI could mean PCE – the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge – would come in close to the Fed's target for December.

 

Also in focus: Trump’s tariff threats towards Canada, and what they would mean for consumers. Canada’s Minister of International Trade not mincing words with the team at Post 9 this hour.
