The former U.S. president and Republican presidential candidate secured 36 million shares of Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), increasing his stake from 57.6% as of March. Reuters reported last week that Trump would secure a stock bonus worth $1.3 billion from TMTG, equivalent to about half the majority stake he already owns in it, thanks to the wild rally in its shares. The bonus also reflects the exuberant trading in TMTG's shares, which have been on a roller coaster ride since the company listed on Nasdaq last month through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) and was snapped up by Trump supporters and speculators.

The company's shares will be delisted from Euronext Paris on May 28 and the SIX Swiss Exchange before the end of 2024, after which it will only trade on the New York Stock Exchange, its primary listing. Significantly low trading volumes, costs and administrative requirements related to the listing of the stock on European exchanges were some of reasons that were considered for the delisting, it said. Caterpillar on Thursday warned of a sales drop in the current quarter as volumes take a hit from dealers tightening equipment inventories, sparking worries that a months-long boom in machinery demand may be coming to an end.

Months after a catastrophic fire burned more than 2,200 homes in Hawaii, some property owners are getting more bad news — their property insurance won't be renewed because their insurance company has deemed the risk too high. Insurance providers, state regulators and researchers are grappling with how to keep the insurance companies in business while keeping residents and their properties insured and protected. “I think most of the insurers, you know, I’m very grateful that they’re committed to the Hawaii market, so we haven’t seen wholesale withdrawals,” after the Aug. 8, 2023 fire burned through Lahaina and killed 101 people, Hawaii Insurance Commissioner Gordon Ito said during a Wildfire Risk Forum for insurance commissioners held at the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho.
Monday marks the start of a busy week for Wall Street, with a slew of data releases set to shape market dynamics. Big Tech earnings, the highly anticipated Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, and the closely watched jobs report are all scheduled to unfold. Wells Fargo Senior Global Market Strategist Scott Wren joins The Morning Brief to provide insights into how these developments might impact markets and the Federal Reserve's rate cut outlook. With the FOMC meeting and decision announcement slated for Wednesday, Wren believes "we're not going to see any surprises," predicting that the higher-for-longer interest rate environment will likely persist. He believes that two rate cuts could materialize in 2024, starting in September. The next most likely scenario is "fewer cuts, not more," Wren says. As the Big Tech earnings season continues to unfold this week, Wren believes the tech and communications services sectors are "overvalued." However, he acknowledges that with industry heavyweights like Microsoft (MSFT) driving market rallies post-earnings, "clearly the market is going to hang on results" for a few days.

The Indian rupee was little changed on Tuesday, tracking subdued moves in its Asian peers, with traders expecting the local currency to trade with a slight depreciation bias heading into the U.S. Federal Reserve's policy decision. The dollar index was up 0.1% at 105.8, while most Asian currencies were rangebound. The Fed will deliver its policy decision on Wednesday and while it is widely expected to keep rates unchanged, investors will pay attention to remarks from Chair Jerome Powell for cues on policymakers' thinking about the future path of policy rates.
As the Federal Reserve prepares to decide on rate cuts on Wednesday, markets are trading higher Monday. PGIM Fixed Income Co-Chief Investment Officer Gregory Peters joins The Morning Brief to provide insights into the rate cut outlook. Peters suggests that the Fed meeting on Wednesday may not be "all that interesting," as Chairman Jerome Powell may need to "walk back being more dovish" in light of the hot inflation data failing to align with the Fed's target. This scenario could compel the central bank to hold rates steady and refrain from implementing rate cuts. While Peters acknowledges the potential for a rate hike, he notes that "it's not the base case." The "root cause" of the Fed's rate-cut apprehension is "a positive story," Peters says. He points to the robust state of the economy, coupled with slightly higher inflation, as a backdrop that is "favorable for broad earnings."
