Does August 1 Tariff Deadline Mean Fed Can’t Cut in September?
Zachary Hill expects tariff rates to go higher than markets expect: “The question is, when.” He thinks the market’s attention span is too short to catch tariff impacts as they start to hit in the fall. He argues that delaying tariffs to August 1 lessens the chance of the Fed cutting rates because it will wait for inflation data coming out of that. He’s short the U.S. dollar and likes international equities.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

"No Comparison": Matt Tuttle's Case for UBER over LYFT
Matt Tuttle says there's no comparison between Uber (UBER) and Lyft (LYFT). He thinks Uber is a long-term hold and something to own for 5-years or more. Matt sees the opposite for Lyft, and believes they will be the "Burger King to McDonalds" when stacked against ridesharing comparison. In the autonomous driving space, Matt says "Tesla, I'll believe it when I see it" and says Alphabet's (GOOGL) Waymo is a name to watch.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

The Bull and Bear Case for Apple’s AI Future
Sylvia Jablonski and Ivana Delevska debate the future of Apple (AAPL) AI. Sylvia is bullish on its tech development and says, “Once they catch up, you get an upgrade cycle out of this.” Apple has “no choice but to play in this space,” she says, and thinks they will initially partner with third parties while developing their own in-house version. Ivana thinks they’re hitting a major headwind: “they’re starting to fail” in their innovation cycle and they aren’t “leveraging their consumer.” She argues that using a third-party product for AI removes their edge. She warns that if Apple can’t deliver, an upstart competitor could take over.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Former U.S. Mint Director Decodes Current White House Tax & Tariff Policy
