Daily Briefing — August 20, 2026 | The Treasury Steps In, Yields Fall, Then Iran Sends Them Right Back Up (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Treasury Department's surprise move to more than double its long-dated debt buybacks sends yields sharply lower and stocks rallying Wednesday, only for the relief to reverse Thursday after President Trump vows a "crushing economic operation" against Iran and sends oil prices higher again. We cover why the 30-year Treasury yield's climb to a near-20-year high forced the government's hand, Moderna's roughly 140% surge on strong trial results, and South Korea's Kospi jumping nearly 6% in a sing
Daily Briefing — August 17, 2026 | A Paused Core Conflict, New Regional Flashpoints, and a Big Week for Retail Earnings (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Markets waver Monday after fresh violence in Lebanon and a deadly Houthi strike on a cargo ship in the Red Sea, even as the core exchange of strikes between the US and Iran remains paused and Jared Kushner pursues Gaza ceasefire talks with Hamas in Egypt. We cover the ongoing dispute over the real state of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, Goldman Sachs' more cautious read on US consumer spending heading into a major week of retailer earnings from Home Depot, Target, and Walmart, and a $22.
Weekend Briefing — August 15, 2026 | A Sharp Retail Sales Miss, a 25-Year-High Bond Yield, and the Week That Split the Economy in Two (opens the original)
Read excerpt
July retail sales fall a sharp 0.6%, and consumer sentiment deteriorates further, closing out a week where the S&P 500 still notched its first-ever close above 7,800 and a third consecutive winning week. We unpack the genuine puzzle underneath it all: falling Fed rate-hike odds paired with the government's highest 30-year bond yield in 25 years, and fresh Goldman Sachs scrutiny over how hyperscalers are financing their AI infrastructure buildout after Broadcom's 6% weekly slide. We also cover Sa
Daily Briefing — August 14, 2026 | The S&P Tops 7,800 as a Week of Falling Rate-Hike Odds Closes Out (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The S&P 500 closes above 7,800 for the first time ever after a soft July Producer Price Index report, capping a week that saw September rate-hike odds collapse from roughly 55% to around 34%. We cover the notable split within Thursday's PPI data, where wholesale goods prices actually fell even as services costs kept climbing, and GDS Wealth Management's read on why the Fed's real path to taming inflation runs through the Middle East rather than any single data print. We also cover oil's sharp Th
Daily Briefing — August 13, 2026 | A Calm CPI Report, a Wild Week for Rate Odds, and PPI Up Next (opens the original)
Read excerpt
July's CPI report lands exactly in line with forecasts, pushing the S&P 500 to a fresh record and sending September rate-hike odds down to around 40%, capping off a week that saw those same odds swing from 55% to 42% to over 50% and back again. We cover why oil's continued climb above $83 a barrel means yesterday's relief may not carry forward, Nebius Group's 34% surge on strong AI infrastructure earnings, Apple's reported talks with publishers over an AI-powered Siri overhaul, and a genuine ana
