The market wasn't surprised by the Federal Reserve's decision to cut the fed funds rate by 25 basis points on Wednesday. But the outlook that showed FOMC members only expect two rate cuts did, sending stocks plummeting. In an interview with Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi on Opening Bid, San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly said the decision to cut was a "close call" that "took a lot of deliberation" but that she ultimately decided "it was appropriate to reduce it 25 basis points. That will be a hundred basis points of recalibration. And I see that as right-sizing the policy rate level to the economy we have, recognizing the progress on inflation, recognizing the labor market's now well-balanced. There's one job opening for every unemployed worker. That's a perfect balance."
Daly sees the "recalibration period" as "completed" meaning the Fed can now make decisions more slowly as they get more data to process.
On the issue of the 2025 outlook, Daly stresses that it is a projection but that the Fed remains committed to bringing inflation down, "and that will mean restricted policy through the year in all likelihood." Daly says if inflation were to rise, she wouldn't rule out raising rates, but that's not something she sees on the horizon. Ultimately, Daly says, "I do not see that we're done cutting rates. I just see that we're going to adjust rates at a slower pace."
So what will Daly be watching to make her next rate decision? Inflation and employment data, of course. But also what she is hearing from those who live and work in her district. What are they seeing on the ground? Are businesses hiring? Laying people off? On that point, she says, "I'm hearing that they're not really brushing off their layoff plans, they're just thinking carefully about the amount of hiring they do, and they're thinking carefully about whether they refill jobs if people attrit or leave the jobs."

Corporate America is gearing up for Trump 2.0, having already gotten a flavor of what Trump has in mind. Potentially crushing fresh tariffs on China, even if it means higher levels of US inflation. Mass deportations come with their own set of economic risks. And soon, a new leader atop the Federal Reserve. Is there any way a top executive could prepare for uncertain outcomes tied to these initiatives from the Trump administration? How does one lead their teams when uncertainty begins to reign supreme again? Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi sat down with former TD Ameritrade CEO and former head football coach at Coastal Carolina University Joe Moglia.

Stocks don’t go up in a straight line, and that pertains to the market’s favorite name Nvidia as well! Shares of the chip-maker have fallen into correction territory, dropping by 12% from their November highs. Pros point to several factors for the sell-off, ranging from only an OK third quarter earnings report to signs of new competition from Amazon and Broadcom. Comments from Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella on chip supply have also weighed on Nvidia sentiment. Even still, Nvidia managed to secure the 2024 Product of the Year award for its work with game-changing AI chip Blackwell. Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi is joined at the roundtable at the Nasdaq in Times Square by one of Wall Street’s most respected chip analysts, Bofa’s Vivek Arya. Arya has been a long-time bull on Nvidia, giving the company high marks for its leadership in chip design and execution. But despite that bullishness, he hasn’t shied away from urging caution on the stock in key periods for the company. Arya dives into his current thinking on the AI chip darling of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, and offers up a few predictions that will surely garner the attention of the many Nvidia bulls.

President-elect Donald Trump hasn’t hidden his appetite to unleash new tariffs on China and possibly Europe right out of the box upon getting back into the White House. The point person for executing those tariffs is likely to be Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick, who Trump has selected as Commerce Secretary. While stocks continue to new highs despite the tariff threats, most experts agree tariffs could hurt the economy and increase inflation. It’s a risk that shouldn’t be overlooked. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi goes one-on-one with businessman and former Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross. Ross was the Commerce Secretary in the first Trump term and helped implement his tariffs on China. Will the president go hardcore on tariffs as he has promised? Or is it a negotiating tactic? Ross takes investors inside the mind of the President-elect as the US nears Inauguration Day and potentially, more restrictive trade.

One of the hottest assets in the market since the presidential election, surprisingly, isn’t AI chip darling Nvidia (NVDA). On the contrary, it’s bitcoin (BTC-USD) and the wider crypto market as optimism on the space is at record highs ahead of the new Trump administration. SEC chair Gary Gensler exiting stage left soon has also lifted sentiment. Bitcoin is hovering around record highs, sending shares of crypto plays MicroStrategy (MSTR), Coinbase (COIN), and Robinhood (HOOD) to new heights. But can the excitement be sustained? Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi goes inside the red-hot world of crypto with Benchmark senior analyst Mark Palmer. Palmer has been covering the rise of crypto for well over a decade, and says the outlook has never been brighter.

The holiday shopping season is upon US consumers. While many experts are forecasting a solid shopping season for retailers amid record high stock prices and ongoing job market gains, there are several wildcards. Consumers continue to battle inflation for food, causing pullbacks in demand for discretionary categories such apparel and home goods. Prices on apparel are still high, too. This as President-elect Trump eyes potential tariffs, which could negatively impact some of the world’s largest apparel purveyors. Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi speaks with Alex Mill Chairman Mickey Drexler. The former long-time CEO of Gap and J Crew not only shares many of his legendary retail stories, but reveals some of his biggest concerns on the impact of potential Trump tariffs on the apparel industry he has been part of for decades. Drexler adds the retail industry is awash in discounts, while at the same time consumers have luxury fatigue. He also shares how he is growing his business with his son Alex Drexler.
