Bloomberg Intelligence hosted by John Tucker and Emily Grafffeo Today’s Podcast Features are: Ira Jersey, Bloomberg Intelligence Chief US Interest Rate Strategist, discusses today’s slide in U.S Treasuries. The selloff in Treasuries intensified as investors continued to pull back from US assets, sending longer-dated yields toward the biggest weekly surge since the 1980s. Joanne Hsu, University of Michigan Surveys of Consumers Director, discusses Friday’s data from the University of Michigan. U.S consumer sentiment tumbled the second-weakest reading on record while short- and long-term inflation expectations soared to multi-decade highs on growing tariff concerns. Alison Williams, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Analyst, Global Banks and Asset Managers, talks U.S bank earnings. JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s stock traders took in a record haul in the first quarter, boosted by chaotic market moves set off by President Donald Trump’s policy announcements. Morgan Stanley’s stock-traders delivered first-quarter revenue that exceeded analyst predictions, earning a record $4.13 billion from equities trading. Wells Fargo & Co. missed analysts’ estimates for net interest income in the first quarter with soft loan demand hurting the bank’s largest revenue stream as tariff uncertainty clouds the US economic outlook. Neil Sipes, Bloomberg Intelligence Financials Analyst, discusses earnings from BlackRock. BlackRock posted mixed results for the quarter preceding President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs, pulling in less client money than analysts expected but posting higher-than-anticipated earnings per share.
