19:34Now PlayingAsian markets stumbled midweek as a selloff in heavyweight U.S. tech stocks spilled across global equities. Most major indexes in the region dipped, with Taiwan Semiconductor and SoftBank among the hardest hit. The MSCI Asia Pacific index fell 0.5%, and Nasdaq futures slid after their second-worst loss since April's tariff shock. Treasuries held steady, the dollar climbed for a third straight day, and oil edged higher following a volatile prior session. We examine the broader market landscape with Ritesh Ganeriwal, Head of Investment & Advisory at Syfe.
Meanwhile, attention is turning to Jackson Hole, where Fed Chair Jerome Powell will speak Friday. Traders are nearly certain a September rate cut is coming, but Powell's tone could shape the longer-term policy outlook. With July CPI showing tame goods inflation but sticky services prices, investors are looking for guidance on how aggressively the Fed may ease into 2026. We look at the prospective path of rate policy with Gene Goldman, Chief Investment Officer at Cetera Financial Group.
