The Federal Reserve delivered a widely expected 25-basis-point rate cut. The vote came in at nine in favor and three against. Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee and Kansas City Fed President Jeff Schmid opposed the cut, while Trump-nominated Governor Stephen Miran argued for a larger 50-basis-point reduction.<img data-json="{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;353002bb-e560-4531-afa4-f98a567170ea&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}],&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/c695b873-50f1-49d9-8303-fb870767fde1_image_fd57d4031765415592906.png&quot;}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/c695b873-50f1-49d9-8303-fb870767fde1_image_fd57d4031765415592906.png" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />The dot plot revealed that as many as six FOMC participants opposed the cut (two formal dissenters and four non-voting members), while Miran supported an even more aggressive easing.Looking to 2026, most officials still expect at least one rate cut next year, unchanged from the September dot plot. One participant projects a major decline in rates toward roughly 2 percent—very likely Miran.Long-run rate expectations remain around 3 percent, indicating the Fed is already close to its long-term target.<img data-json="{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/89fd2211-7bf1-489d-9e28-9811a09e8b7d_75eb2c461765415620562.png&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}]}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/89fd2211-7bf1-489d-9e28-9811a09e8b7d_75eb2c461765415620562.png" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />On economic projections, Fed officials raised their GDP forecasts for 2025–2028. The largest upward revision occurred in 2026, with growth raised from 1.8 percent in September to 2.3 percent. Other years saw modest 0.1-percentage-point increases.For unemployment, officials trimmed the 2027 forecast from 4.3 to 4.2 percent, leaving other years unchanged, signaling confidence in the labor market’s resilience.On inflation, the Fed lowered its 2024 PCE inflation projection to 2.9 percent from 3.0 percent, and its 2026 estimate to 2.4 percent from 2.6 percent, with other years unchanged. This indicates growing confidence that inflation will continue to ease, and that Trump’s tariffs have not caused a meaningful upside surprise.Overall, the Fed’s baseline economic assumption remains a **soft landing** for the U.S. economy.<img data-json="{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/800d9a85-7360-4288-868e-6c8ef5c32588_10aec72c1765415637122.jpeg&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}]}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/800d9a85-7360-4288-868e-6c8ef5c32588_10aec72c1765415637122.jpeg" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />A notable development is the Fed’s decision to **restart balance-sheet expansion**, planning to purchase USD 40 billion in short-term Treasuries over the next 30 days to ensure ample reserves in the banking system and relieve year-end funding pressures. Purchases will stay elevated for several months before gradually slowing. While this program does not constitute QE, it still signals support for most risk assets.Dovish shift in the Fed statement: removal of “low unemployment” language and more focus on labor-market downside risksDuring the press conference, Chair Jerome Powell reiterated that job growth has slowed this year and adjusted the Fed’s language on unemployment. The September statement noted that unemployment had “ticked up but remained low through August.” The new statement drops the “remained low” phrasing and says simply that unemployment “has edged higher through September.”Answering questions, Powell explicitly stated that labor data had been weak even before revisions and is likely overstated—referring to the QCEW annual benchmark adjustments. Several times, Powell emphasized that “job growth is actually negative,” highlighting the downside risk from a weakening labor market.On inflation, Powell reiterated that inflation is not a problem under the Fed’s baseline scenario. Tariffs are one-off, while labor-market fatigue and slower wage growth imply service-sector inflation is unlikely to reaccelerate. Increasing evidence shows service inflation is declining, and goods inflation is almost entirely concentrated in tariff-affected categories.Overall, the Fed’s communication was more dovish than markets expected, boosting risk assets and lifting U.S. equities.<visualization

dataurl='undefined'></visualization>What analysts say“Rising jobless claims, a gradual uptick in unemployment and layoffs—these are ‘a series of very troubling events’ for the FOMC,” said Jonathan Pingle, chief U.S. economist at UBS. “They are not planning a January cut, but at this point Powell cannot rule anything out.”“When the Fed is in a cutting cycle and there is no imminent recession or clear downside shock, markets typically respond positively,” said Mona Mahajan, investment strategist at Edward Jones.“The FOMC statement highlighted labor-market weakness as the key driver of this rate cut, and markets seized on that,” said Michael Rosen, CIO of Angeles Investments. “It signals the Fed could ease further in 2026.”“Powell delivered no unexpected hawkish pivot, allowing investors to add to risk exposure,” said Krishna Guha, vice chair of Evercore ISI. “Powell’s comments on productivity and growth were quite constructive—particularly on AI-driven efficiency gains and the broader productivity revival—clearly supportive for risk assets.”However, some analysts warned about sticky inflation. Nathan Sheets, Citi’s global chief economist, said he will closely watch January inflation data to see whether companies pass tariff costs on to consumers. “The Fed’s inflation target is 2 percent, but core inflation in September was 2.8 percent. There is no compelling evidence it will quickly fall back to 2 percent, and that concerns me.”

Oracle: Mounting Risks in Hardware and Cloud Transition

In the history of human civilization, few problems have been as intractable as organ failure. For decades, the only cure for end-stage heart failure was a &quot;biological miracle&quot;: waiting for another human to die and donate their heart.The math, however, is tragic.<ul><li>In the U.S.: Over 7,500 patients are stuck on the waiting list annually, with 4,000+ new patients added each year.</li><li>In China: There are over 1.3 million severe heart failure patients, yet only ~1,000 transplants occur each year.</li></ul><img data-json="{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/ScreenShot_2025-12-10_094956_559_421bf7481765331411945.png&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}],&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/ScreenShot_2025-12-10_094956_559_421bf7481765331411945.png" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />This is a supply chain failure. Relying on biological donors is like trying to run an airline where you can only build a new plane when an old one crashes intact. It is unscalable.Picard Medical (SynCardia) operates on a different philosophy, one that mirrors Elon Musk&#39;s approach to aerospace: Physics allows it, so engineering can achieve it. They are moving the solution from the realm of &quot;biology&quot; (scarcity) to &quot;manufacturing&quot; (abundance).The Solution: The &quot;Fourth Milestone&quot; of CivilizationKendall Haven&#39;s authoritative list of &quot;250 Inventions That Changed the World&quot; places the Artificial Heart alongside Paper, Penicillin, and the Internet.<ul><li>Paper scaled memory.</li><li>Penicillin scaled survival against bacteria.</li><li>The Internet scaled information.</li><li>The Artificial Heart scales time. It is the first time humanity has successfully engineered a replacement for a vital organ&#39;s core function.</li></ul>SynCardia&#39;s Total Artificial Heart (TAH) is not a subtle &quot;assist device&quot; (like an LVAD). It is a brute-force engineering triumph that removes the failing ventricles and four valves entirely, replacing them with a pneumatically driven titanium and polymer pump. It doesn&#39;t &quot;help&quot; the heart; it becomes the heart.<img data-json="{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/SynCardia-Total-Artificial-Heart_1b2cf1151765331061322.jpg&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}],&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/SynCardia-Total-Artificial-Heart_1b2cf1151765331061322.jpg" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />Engineering in the Wild: From Bedridden to Marathon RunnerThe most compelling argument for this engineering approach is not found in a lab, but on a running track.Consider <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/randy-shepherd-walked-4-miles-with-an-artificial-heart-2014-5" target='__blank'>Randy Shepherd</a>. His heart was failing so badly that he couldn&#39;t hold his son without needing oxygen. Doctors gave him hours to live. After receiving a SynCardia TAH, he didn&#39;t just survive; he thrived.<ul><li>The Feature: The device has no sensors. It relies on physics. When Randy runs, his muscles pump more blood back to the heart, filling the ventricles faster. The machine automatically ejects more blood (up to 10L/min) to match the return flow.</li><li>The Result: Randy completed a 4.2-mile run (Pat&#39;s Run) carrying his Freedom® Portable Driver in a backpack. He is the first human to run a &quot;marathon&quot; distance without a biological heart.</li></ul>Or consider <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1051268850338722&amp;id=100063668495728&amp;set=a.507281818070764" target='__blank'>Johnny Lemucchi</a>, a football referee who was playing golf just two months after his implant. Or <a href="https://www.michiganmedicine.org/health-lab/10-year-old-becomes-first-child-receive-total-artificial-heart-michigan-0" target='__blank'>Lev&#39;Veon</a>, a 10-year-old boy whose heart stopped at a birthday party. The TAH served as his &quot;Iron Man heart,&quot; keeping him alive for 24 days until a donor was found.These aren&#39;t medical anecdotes; they are engineering stress tests. They prove that a machine can replicate the complex hemodynamics of life.The Endgame: &quot;Destination Therapy&quot;Currently, SynCardia is FDA-approved as a &quot;Bridge to Transplant&quot;. It buys time. But the ultimate engineering goal is &quot;Destination Therapy&quot; (DT)—where the machine is the permanent cure.The roadmap is clear:<ul><li>Now: The Freedom® Portable Driver allows patients to discharge home, turning a hospital stay into a manageable outpatient life.</li><li>Future (2028+): The Fully Implantable TAH. This next-generation device aims to eliminate external drivelines (wires through the skin), reducing infection risk and improving quality of life.</li></ul>When this technology matures, the &quot;waiting list&quot; for a heart transplant will become obsolete. Patients won&#39;t wait for a donor; they will schedule a manufacturing slot.Investment ConclusionPicard Medical represents a bet on Deep Tech. It is the only company in the world that has commercialized a total replacement for the human heart. While the stock market frets over quarterly volatility, the underlying engineering reality is steady: SynCardia has turned the &quot;art&quot; of saving lives into a repeatable, scalable &quot;science.&quot; For investors who believe in first principles—that technology inevitably replaces scarcity with abundance—PMI is a unique asset in the healthcare sector.<visualization

Picard Medical (PMI): Physics Over Biology—Solving the Organ Shortage with Engineering

At Meta Platforms Inc., the CEO who once built an empire on social connections is now diving deep into the trenches of artificial intelligence, steering a massive pivot toward a revenue-generating model that could redefine the company&#39;s trajectory. Codenamed Avocado, this forthcoming AI system—slated for a spring debut—represents Meta&#39;s boldest departure from its cherished open-source ethos, opting instead for a tightly controlled, pay-to-play structure. It&#39;s a move that echoes the strategies of rivals like Google and OpenAI, and it&#39;s being championed by Meta&#39;s new Chief AI Officer, Alexandr Wang, a 28-year-old prodigy fresh from a $14.3 billion deal involving his startup, Scale AI.This shift didn&#39;t happen in a vacuum. Earlier this year, the release of Llama 4, Meta&#39;s latest open-source model, fell flat in Silicon Valley circles, leaving Zuckerberg disillusioned. He swiftly sidelined key contributors from that project and embarked on a recruiting spree, luring top AI talent with eye-watering compensation packages worth hundreds of millions. Today, Zuckerberg dedicates much of his energy to collaborating with these hires in a secretive group dubbed TBD Lab, where the focus is laser-sharp on Avocado.The Pivot to Proprietary Power<img data-json="{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;1c5791c7-c958-4a2b-9bed-a591a66bca6a&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}],&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/7c3e89d7-062c-4c5c-990f-9fdf8a3f85f9_image (2)_878740641765413365825.jpg&quot;}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/7c3e89d7-062c-4c5c-990f-9fdf8a3f85f9_image (2)_878740641765413365825.jpg" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />Avocado isn&#39;t just another iteration—it&#39;s a fundamental reorientation. Unlike Meta&#39;s open-source Llama series, which invited developers and researchers to tinker and innovate, Avocado is poised to launch as a &quot;closed&quot; model. This means Meta can gatekeep access, monetizing it through subscriptions or licensing fees. The decision aligns with Wang&#39;s preferences; as an industry insider with deep ties from Scale AI, he&#39;s a vocal proponent of closed systems that prioritize control and commercialization over transparency.In training Avocado, the TBD team is drawing from a eclectic mix of third-party models, including Google&#39;s Gemma, OpenAI&#39;s gpt-oss, and notably, Alibaba&#39;s Qwen—a product from the Chinese tech behemoth. This incorporation of Chinese technology marks a tonal reversal for Zuckerberg, who as recently as January voiced alarms on Joe Rogan&#39;s podcast about state-influenced censorship in such models. He&#39;s since doubled down on rallying U.S. government support for American AI dominance, framing open-source as a patriotic tool in the global race. Yet, as Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang bluntly noted this month, China has surged ahead in open-source advancements, leaving U.S. efforts scrambling to catch up.Zuckerberg has historically analogized Meta&#39;s AI strategy to Google&#39;s Android: an open platform that fosters ecosystem growth and bolsters Meta&#39;s core products. While the company maintains some internal closed models and Zuckerberg hinted at dual approaches during July&#39;s earnings call, Avocado signals a decisive tilt toward proprietary tech. It&#39;s a pragmatic response to competitive pressures, where open-source alone hasn&#39;t delivered the edge Meta craves.Building the Elite Arsenal<img data-json="{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;efcae81c-4515-4265-9af7-8cd181aa9561&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}],&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/1cce14ea-666f-43dd-a80d-24d5711d317b_image_e086396e1765412856367.png&quot;}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/1cce14ea-666f-43dd-a80d-24d5711d317b_image_e086396e1765412856367.png" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />(Alexandr Wang)AI now reigns supreme at Meta, eclipsing other initiatives and commanding the lion&#39;s share of executive bandwidth. Zuckerberg has committed a staggering $600 billion to U.S. infrastructure over the next three years, with the bulk earmarked for AI. This includes reallocating funds from virtual reality and metaverse projects—once the company&#39;s futuristic darlings—toward AI-infused hardware like smart glasses. Insiders describe these cuts as meaningful, aimed at fueling the AI surge.The star of this buildup is Wang, whom Zuckerberg has taken under his wing in a mentorship dynamic. Wang&#39;s non-technical background hasn&#39;t hindered his impact; colleagues praise his execution speed and strategic vision, honed through Scale AI&#39;s industry networks. Yet, tensions simmer: Wang has chafed at what he perceives as Zuckerberg&#39;s micromanagement, a hallmark of the CEO&#39;s hands-on style with flagship products. To facilitate oversight, TBD Lab members are clustered around Zuckerberg&#39;s desk at Meta&#39;s Menlo Park headquarters, enabling frequent check-ins.This talent-dense environment comes at a premium. Meta&#39;s AI investments have ballooned, positioning it as one of tech&#39;s costliest endeavors. Roughly six months in, the team operates in relative secrecy, with public outputs sparse. The pressure is palpable, amplified by Zuckerberg&#39;s ambition to forge &quot;the most elite and talent-dense team in the industry.&quot;Setbacks in the Shadows<img data-json="{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;6908e5d2-1dc9-431f-a4a6-e0c8968e5ac5&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}],&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/870c53ba-4df6-44e9-9528-5c577a151936_image_c829d0f51765413475015.png&quot;}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/870c53ba-4df6-44e9-9528-5c577a151936_image_c829d0f51765413475015.png" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />Not everything has gone smoothly. Following Llama 4&#39;s underwhelming reception, an interim project codenamed Behemoth was scrapped when it failed to impress Zuckerberg. Open-source efforts have been de-emphasized; leadership instructed staff to cease public discussions on Llama and related products, prompting a strategic reevaluation.High-profile exits underscore the turbulence. Yann LeCun, an AI pioneer and longtime advocate for open-source, departed after years leading Meta&#39;s research arm, frustrated by resource constraints. Prior to his exit, he was deliberately sidelined from public events, as Meta viewed him as misaligned with its evolving direction. In October, Meta axed 600 roles in its AI unit, hitting the academically oriented FAIR group hardest. Some fresh recruits from the Meta Superintelligence Labs (MSL) bolted within weeks.Even product launches have stumbled. Meta fast-tracked Vibes, a video-generation tool licensed from Midjourney, to preempt OpenAI&#39;s Sora 2. While internals claim strong user engagement, Sora&#39;s debut a week later stole the spotlight, relegating Vibes to the sidelines in media coverage.Investor Eyes on the Prize<visualization

dataurl='undefined'></visualization>Wall Street is watching closely. Meta&#39;s lavish AI outlays—extending into 2026—have sparked investor unease, with concerns that data centers and infrastructure bets might not yield profits for years. Zuckerberg counters that these investments already enhance advertising revenue and necessitate front-loading for competitive advantage. A Bloomberg report on metaverse cutbacks sparked a stock rally, signaling approval for fiscal discipline amid the AI frenzy.Avocado&#39;s success hinges on more than tech—it&#39;s about persuasion. The team&#39;s north star is &quot;superintelligence,&quot; AI surpassing human capabilities across tasks. But the term has backfired. Internal market research, conducted with consultants, revealed it evokes fears of unchecked AI power, especially in Europe, where regulators have already scrutinized Meta&#39;s offerings. In the U.S., figures like Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and entrepreneur Richard Branson have called for halting superintelligence development until safety is assured.The Road to SuperintelligenceAs Meta hurtles toward Avocado&#39;s launch, the stakes couldn&#39;t be higher. Zuckerberg&#39;s personal immersion and Wang&#39;s operational prowess offer promise, but the path is fraught with execution risks, talent churn, and regulatory headwinds. If Avocado delivers, it could catapult Meta into AI profitability, validating the pivot from open-source idealism to closed-model pragmatism. Failure, however, might amplify doubts about the company&#39;s $600 billion gamble.In this high-wire act, Meta isn&#39;t just building a model—it&#39;s reshaping its identity in the AI arms race. Investors, rivals, and regulators will be watching every step, as Zuckerberg bets the farm on turning Avocado into the ripe fruit of Meta&#39;s ambitions.

The hard truths about building wealth👇 <video src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/3jwE4MmOQwY" poster="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Episode 19_a11f56281765400743661.jpg" data="{&quot;videoUrl&quot;:&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/3jwE4MmOQwY&quot;,&quot;coverUrl&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Episode 19_a11f56281765400743661.jpg&quot;}"></video>Stocks rallied into the close Monday as investors digested a quietly accommodative Federal Reserve decision and improving consumer-spending signals, extending a year-end upswing that has accelerated across major U.S. equity benchmarks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed +497.46 points (+1.05%) to Not provided, leading blue-chip gains. The S&amp;P 500 rose +46.22 (+0.68%), while the Nasdaq Composite added +77.67 (+0.33%). Small caps continued their recent rebound, with the Russell 2000 rising +3.45 (+1.37%).The move unfolded as markets continued to parse the Federal Reserve’s 25-basis-point rate cut, which lowered the policy range to 3.50%–3.75%, according to the Fed policy summary in the provided document. While the cut was fully expected, the broader message leaned more supportive for risk assets than many traders anticipated. The Fed’s updated projections kept the forward rate path unchanged, trimmed inflation forecasts, and raised growth expectations, signaling to investors that policymakers remain comfortable with a gradual glide path toward neutral.Internal tensions remain at the Fed: the vote split 9–3, with Stephen Miran preferring a larger 50-basis-point cut and Austan Goolsbee and Jeffrey Schmid favoring no cut. Yet markets interpreted the divergence as confirmation that policymakers are navigating a narrow but constructive path—supporting employment without reigniting inflation, while avoiding any hint of a hawkish pivot.More consequential for markets was the Fed’s decision to begin Treasury bill purchases of roughly $40 billion starting December 12, a liquidity-positive action described as not quantitative easing but functionally similar in its effect on reserves. This shift, alongside the removal of certain repo-operation limits, contributed to suppressed volatility: the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) fell 7.27% to 15.70, its lowest closing tone in weeks.Commodities offered a mixed backdrop. Crude oil (Jan 26) rose 1.18% to 58.94, while gold (Feb 26) advanced 0.68% to 4,265.00, both reflecting a softer dollar and easier financial-conditions impulse following the Fed meeting. Bitcoin slipped 0.46% to 92,685.45, retracing part of last week’s rapid ascent.Consumer-spending data from the Bank of America Institute, as provided in your document, showed a widening divergence between high- and low-income households—a “K-shaped” holiday pattern. <img data-json="{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Screenshot 2025-12-10 at 3.52.19 PM_01eb64671765401173305.png&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}]}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Screenshot 2025-12-10 at 3.52.19 PM_01eb64671765401173305.png" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />Higher-income households increased spending on holiday items materially more than lower-income groups, consistent with stronger after-tax wage growth at the top of the income distribution. Still, overall card spending per household rose 1.3% year-over-year in November, signaling durable, if moderating, consumer resilience.With liquidity returning, volatility easing, and the growth-inflation mix improving, investors continued to lean into risk exposure Monday afternoon. The market’s tone suggests that the Fed’s “boring but bullish” message remains the dominant force shaping trading into year-end.
