Quick Glance: Powell Warns of Lack of Progress on Inflation
- Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized that the U.S. economy, while otherwise strong, has not seen a return of inflation to the central bank's target.
- Powell mentioned that the current policy should remain in place as inflation has not declined quickly enough and there has been no further progress towards the 2% goal.
- Since July 2023, the Fed has maintained its benchmark interest rate in a target range between 5.25% and 5.5%, the result of 11 consecutive rate hikes.
- Financial markets have had to adjust their expectations for rate cuts this year as inflation has been higher than expected, and the Fed's policy continues to be dependent on data.

- The S&P 500 may be facing potential downside risk, with a deep decline possibly unfolding in stages, with the Nasdaq 100 potentially being the last to be affected.
- In the era of 'buying the dip,' there is a chance that a decline could occur gradually or swiftly, or it could even be a false alarm.
- As a risk manager, it is more important to assess the risks of different market segments and position accordingly, rather than speculate on market movements.
- The primary goal is to avoid being affected by market-changing sell-offs, and adjusting the portfolio to address the current market risks is crucial.

business-standard.com/world-news/zuckerberg-s-wealth-exceeds-elon-musk-s-for-the-first-time-since-2020-124040600039_1.html
Quick Glance: Zuckerberg Surpasses Musk as Third Wealthiest Person Globally
- Mark Zuckerberg surpassed Elon Musk on Friday to secure the position of the third-richest individual globally, marking the first instance since 2020 where these rival figures have held these ranks.
- Zuckerberg has seen a $58.9 billion increase in wealth, contrasting with Musk's $48.4 billion decline this year, showcasing the shift from the once popular electric vehicle stock market to the dominance of the Big-Tech sector, particularly in artificial intelligence.
- The year has been challenging for Tesla stocks, witnessing a 34% decrease, positioning them as the poorest performer in the S&P 500 Index. Conversely, Meta experienced a 49% surge due to robust quarterly results and enthusiasm for the company's AI ventures.
- The reversal of the wealth gap between Musk and Zuckerberg, with Musk now holding a net worth of $180.6 billion and Zuckerberg $186.9 billion, not only highlights a wealth competition but also a rivalry in the advancement of technologies like social media and artificial intelligence.
