Stocks Crash From Record Highs as Fed Signals a 2026 Rate Hike

On today's episode of Market Brief – After Hours, we unpack a dramatic reversal that took the Dow from a fresh all-time intraday high to a 507-point loss after Kevin Warsh's first meeting as Fed chair. The hawkish dot plot, a surging dollar and rocketing Treasury yields turned a record session into a broad sell-off. In FX, the greenback dominated as EUR/USD and GBP/USD broke down hard and USD/CAD pushed higher, while gold and silver were hit and oil quietly climbed on Iran tensions. We also cover Asia's diverging session, the Bank of Japan's latest hike, and standout single-stock moves on Wall Street. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
