Bloomberg Surveillance hosted by Tom Keene & Paul SweeneyMay 30th, 2025
Featuring:
1) Greg Boutle, Head of US Equity & Derivative Strategy at BNP Paribas, Aoifinn Devitt, Chief Global Strategist at Moneta, and Ira Jersey, Chief US Interest Rates Strategist with Bloomberg Intelligence. react to PCE. April’s so-called core personal consumption expenditures price index, which excludes food and energy items, rose 0.1% from March. From a year ago, it advanced 2.5%, Bureau of Economic Analysis data out Friday showed. Both readings were in line with economists’ forecast.
2) Seema Shah, Chief Global Strategist at Principal Asset Management, joins to talk about any potential upheaval that could come as continued on-again, off-again tariffs. The Trump administration is exploring alternative options to pursue tariffs, including using other legal authorities, but these options may be more complicated and time-consuming, and could take months to execute. As a result, traders are reassessing their appetite for riskier assets amid concerns over weaker growth and fiscal strain.
3) Pat Haskell, Head: Muni Bond Group at BlackRock, on muni performance through 2025 and how munis function as a safe haven amid tariff uncertainty. Investors are also parsing data for clues on how the policies are affecting the economy amid concerns over weaker growth and fiscal strain.
4) Lindsey Piegza, Chief Economist at Stifel, brings us into the market open and talks about the outlook for inflation in the US after today's PCE report. Meanwhile in Washington, President Trump pushed Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to lower interest rates at their first in-person meeting since the president's inauguration. Powell stressed that the path of policy will depend on incoming economic information.
5) Phillip Diehl, President of US Money Reserve and 35th Director of the US Mint, talks about recent fluctuations in gold prices and gold buying trends among consumers. Gold fell, putting it on track for an almost 2% weekly loss, amid a technical pullback in prices ahead of key US economic data. Despite the declines, bullion's haven appeal remains intact due to uncertainties surrounding Trump's tariff agenda and tensions with China.
