Bloomberg Surveillance hosted by Tom Keene & Paul SweeneyMay 5th, 2025
Featuring:
1) Ian Lyngen, Head: US Rates Strategy at BMO Capital Market, talks about the 10-year outlook and if Treasury Secretary Bessent's sub-4% target is in the cards following last week's inflation reading. President Trump seized on strong job growth to pressure Fed Chair Jay Powell to cut interest rates, but bond traders concluded the opposite, dialing back rate-cut bets.
2) Alicia Levine, Head of Investment Strategy and Equities, BNY Wealth, brings us into the market open and discusses her S&P outlook and why she's downgrading risk in her portfolio. Financial markets have steadied in the past two weeks as Trump dialed back his tariffs amid signs that trade talks are progressing, and the S&P's looking to extended its longest winning streak in 2 decades.
3) Dana Telsey, Chief Research Officer at Telsey Advisory Group, joins for a Big Picture look at the consumer and where tariffs could hamper their spending. It comes as University of Michigan US consumer sentiment has fallen to one of its lowest points on record amid tariff, inflation, and price uncertainty.
4) Henrietta Treyz, co-founder at Veda Partners, takes a look at DC headlines, talks Congressional priorities heading into the summer, and discusses her note "It's Beginning to Look a lot like COVID." President Trump's 2026 budget request outlines deep cuts to domestic agencies, including a 22.6% cut in spending for the 2025 fiscal year, and significant reductions to environmental and renewable energy programs, early childhood education, and foreign aid.
5) Lisa Mateo joins with the latest headlines in newspapers across the US, including a WSJ story on Corporate America leaving more jobs unfilled and Bloomberg's analysis of how tariffs will impact Hollywood.
