"It's a matter of time" before the government reopens, says Alex Coffey, calling the Senate's 60-vote threshold the "biggest hurdle" in the process. Now focus turns to key inflation and jobs data, as Alex highlights the prospective timeline of key reports. The question remains: what will that data show and what will it mean for interest rate cuts? Alex talks about the "inverse relationship" he sees in corporate layoffs and the yellow flag it waves for the FOMC. As for equities, he explains how SoftBank's sales of Nvidia (NVDA) shares can be bullish for the company.
