Featuring:
1) Lindsey Piegza, Chief Economist at Stifel, reacts to Friday's jobs figures, previews CPI, and talks about how tariffs could affect US growth. President Donald Trump’s protectionist policies and cuts to the federal workforce have dented confidence in US economic outperformance. Trump said at the weekend the US economy faces “a period of transition,” while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent earlier warned of disruption to growth.
2) Henrietta Treyz, co-founder at Veda Partners, joins to talk about a potential government shutdown and more tariff talk on deck from President Trump. House Republicans announced a spending bill to keep government agencies open through September 30, which may lead to a confrontation with Democrats and potentially a government shutdown. The bill's passage is uncertain, with some Republicans and Democrats expressing concerns about various aspects of the bill.
3) Derek DeCloet, Managing Editor with Bloomberg News, on Mark Carney succeeding Justin Trudeau and the latest on US-Canada relations. Carney has won the race to become Canada's next prime minister, taking over from Justin Trudeau, amidst economic uncertainty due to US President Donald Trump's trade policies. Carney, a former central banker, has pledged to protect Canada's economy and sovereignty, promising to keep retaliatory tariffs on US goods until the US shows respect and makes credible commitments to free and fair trade.
4) Kristen Bitterly, Head: Wealth at Work at Citi, discusses why it's important for investors to remain constructive at this time. It comes as strategists across several firms including Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan, and RBC have also tempered their bullish S&P calls for 2025.
5) Lisa Mateo joins with the latest headlines in newspapers across the US, including older Americans turning to Blue Collar jobs, big Costco TVs, and high prices for a French classic.
