The sustainability of the tech trade in equities, the near-term path of inflation and the direction of travel for the Federal Reserve and how they feed into a rate, curve and FX view - it&#x27;s all here. Host Tim Graf, Head of Macro Strategy for EMEA, talks through how unique barometers of investor sentiment, real-time fundamental data and media tones can help navigate the coming weeks.<br>See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cross-Market Signals for the Summer

Street Signals

[SPEAKER_A] This is Street Signals, a weekly conversation about markets and macro brought to you by State Street Markets. I'm your host, Tim Graf, Head of Macro Strategy for Europe. Each week we talk about the latest insights from our award-winning research, as well as the current thinking from our strategists, traders, business leaders, clients, and other experts from financial markets. If you listen to us and like what you're hearing, please subscribe, leave us a good review, get in touch. It all helps us to improve what we offer. With that, here's what's on our minds this week. Summer vacation is now in full swing, at least in the Northern Hemisphere. And as I often do around this time of year, what follows is a short episode on some of the major themes that we're watching across markets as viewed through the lens of our proprietary indicators. I also tend to take a couple of weeks off from the podcast. Let's be honest, I cannot compete with a good beach read. So we're going to move to a biweekly cadence of episodes until after the US Labor Day holiday. Anyway, 4 themes stand out to me as important for these coming weeks and as topics where our research has a lot to say. First, the concentration and head positioning in the AI and broader tech trade and how flows and price action map to that. Also, how meaningful any changes in financial conditions are to the Warsh Fed now that he's taken over, and also how will he navigate the crosscurrents of inflation.
