Will the Fed raise interest rates again? Most coverage of Wednesday’s hike treats the answer as a single year-end probability, and that framing hides the part that matters to anyone running rate risk. There are only two decisions left in 2026, on 28 October and 9 December, and each one lands a day before an
The Fed rate hike on Wednesday was not the surprise; the 2027 line of the dot plot was. The Federal Open Market Committee lifted the target range by 25 basis points to 3.75–4.00% in a 12–0 vote, and 16 of the 18 officials who submitted projections now see at least one more increase before the
Tesla did not get paid for launching a robotaxi. Uber got charged for it. The consensus reading of 3 September is that the Cybercab going into commercial service in Austin repriced both stocks in opposite directions, and for one session it did. Then check the closes. Tesla finished 15 September at $356.58, forty-three cents below
S&P Dow Jones Indices said on 4 September that Nike will be removed from the S&P 100 as part of its quarterly rebalance. The index provider gave the timing as “effective prior to the open of trading on Monday, September 21, 2026.”Funds that replicate the S&P 100 will therefore need to sell Nike by the time
Two consecutive quarters in which Peter Thiel’s fund reported no US stock holdings did not mean Peter Thiel had left the stock market. A Form 13F covers one narrow slice of a manager’s book, and the SEC says so in writing. Thiel Macro LLC, the Los Angeles firm that carries Thiel’s name on its filings,
Micron did not re-rate. That single correction dismantles most of the case being made for Vistra right now, because the Vistra pitch borrows Micron’s chart while ignoring what actually produced it. A year ago Micron (MU) traded at 20.9 times trailing earnings. After a 484% advance it trades at 21.0 times. The multiple has not
Updated 16 September 2026 Spot gold: $4,326.17/oz, up $33.87 (+0.79 percent) on the day, reclaiming the $4,300 handle after a two-session decline (Trading Economics, 16 September). Verdict: the hike itself is close to fully priced. The tradeable variable today is the dot plot, not the 25 basis points. Bear $4,000, base $4,500, bull $4,900 on
SpaceX vs Honeywell Aerospace looks like the easiest pairing in space stocks: the rocket company for growth, the avionics maker for safety. The filings say the risk sits somewhere else. Honeywell Aerospace (HONA) has already been marked down 25.5% since its first regular-way session on 29 June and trades at about 15 times this year’s
Most Amazon stock price prediction pieces treat AMZN as a straight race between AWS growth and the AI capex bill, and that framing misses the asset now moving Amazon’s earnings more than either. At 30 June, Amazon carried its Anthropic stake at $190.4 billion, roughly 1.5 times its $128.9 billion of long-term debt and about
Elon Musk’s net worth is $929.4 billion, according to the Forbes Real-Time Billionaires list as refreshed on 13 September 2026, which prices his holdings at Friday’s close. The common assumption is that Musk’s road back to $1 trillion runs through Tesla. It does not. He is $70.6 billion short, and on Forbes’ own share counts
