Summary

The episode covers market gains driven by Intel's strong earnings and optimism over US-Iran talks, the DOJ dropping the Powell probe clearing a path for Kevin Warsh, and interviews with Grindr's CEO and a profile of Rep. Thomas Massie. Intel surges 21% while Charter Communications plunges on weak results. The outlook remains tied to inflation, oil prices, and diplomatic progress in the Middle East.

  • Intel reported a massive earnings beat and raised guidance, sending shares up 21% and pulling semis higher.
  • Charter Communications dropped 25% after disappointing broadband revenue, highlighting wireless disruption risks.
  • The DOJ ended its criminal probe into Fed renovations, potentially smoothing Kevin Warsh's confirmation as Fed chair.
  • US-Iran talks remain stalled; envoys head to Pakistan but no direct meetings scheduled.
  • Gold and oil prices saw mixed moves, with gold still near highs and crude volatile.
  • Grindr CEO discussed political engagement and hosting a White House Correspondents' Dinner party.
  • Rep. Thomas Massie faces a primary challenge from a Trump-backed Navy SEAL, testing Trump's political strength.
  • Stocks were on track for a fourth straight weekly gain, with the S&P 500 near record highs.
