Summary

US stocks head for their best quarter since the pandemic, while the yen hits a multi-decade low against a strengthening dollar. The Supreme Court expands presidential power but preserves Fed independence. Jack Caffrey of JPMorgan sees rotation into capital markets, transports, and healthcare, while Adidas is highlighted as a standout in sportswear. Oil remains under pressure amid easing Strait of Hormuz tensions and demand concerns.

  • S&P 500 set for best quarterly gain since COVID rebound in 2020, driven by rotation away from mega-cap tech.
  • Yen weakens to 162 versus dollar, its lowest since 1986, as Japan's fiscal expansion fuels bond yield curve steepening.
  • Supreme Court rules Trump can fire heads of independent agencies but explicitly excludes the Federal Reserve, preserving monetary policy independence.
  • Strait of Hormuz shipping tentatively resumes, easing immediate oil supply fears; Morgan Stanley cuts Brent price target and warns of a glut.
  • Jack Caffrey advocates capital markets (banks facilitating growth), transports (pricing power, consolidation), and healthcare (rotation into stable growth).
  • Andrea Felsted calls Adidas 'unstoppable' thanks to fashion momentum, marathon shoes, and World Cup crossover; Nike earnings previewed for early signs of a turnaround.
