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.

Nike CEO says focus on its own website and stores went too far as it embraces wholesale retailers again
cnbc.com/2024/04/12/nike-ceo-acknowledges-it-went-too-far-in-direct-push.html
Quick Glance: Nike CEO Acknowledges Shift from Direct Sales Focus
- Nike CEO John Donahoe acknowledged that the company deviated too far from wholesale partners like Macy's and DSW in its pursuit of primarily selling products through its own stores and website.
- Over recent years, Nike has actively worked on restructuring its business model. Initially focused on selling sneakers and clothing in department stores and specialty shops, the brand now generates the majority of its revenue through direct-to-consumer sales.
- This transition enabled Nike to significantly increase revenue and enhance customer insights through data analysis. Donahoe stated that Nike has tripled its mobile and digital business in the past four years.
- Some analysts view Nike's avoidance of wholesale partners as a misstep that hindered the company's progress in innovation and product development.

Quick Glance: Biocon Developing Own Version of Wegovy, Plans Clinical Trial
- Indian pharmaceutical company Biocon is working on developing its own version of Novo Nordisk's popular Wegovy and is likely to conduct a clinical trial next year to enter the growing weight-loss drug market.
