A few highlights:
- Debate
-
- Lots of focus on Trump/Clinton debate.
- Will comments be made that will impact market? (Ex: Clinton and EpiPen).
- Both candidates likely will put pressure on drug pricing.
- Candidates diverge on healthcare, energy, and taxes.
- Race is essentially tied and first debate will not likely have a major impact.
- Both opposed to TPP.
- Central Banks
-
- Overshadowed by election.
- Fed has strongly implied December rate hike.
-
- Three dissenting members last week.
- Fed lowered target rate projections (as per usual).
- BOJ left rates unchanged and will target rates at 0% as opposed to negative.
- This all boosted stocks last week, but didn’t really last.
I hope you enjoy this episode.
Best,
Brian
