| TQ Evening Briefing | A silver surge, a bank stumble, and a flat S&P: the market spent the day reshuffling risk ahead of the week's real catalyst. | | | | | | Markets limped into the close as a mix of corporate surprises and commodity spikes kept risk appetite contained. | Stocks traded cautiously: the Dow slipped, the S&P hovered near flat, and the Nasdaq eked out a small gain. | Under the surface, leadership flipped. | Banks sagged, home-improvement names softened after Home Depot offered a muted outlook, and auto parts stumbled on weak earnings from AutoZone. | Meanwhile, silver stole the show, surging and extending its run as the year's hottest commodity. | Bitcoin lagged, down more than 1%, while crude drifted lower and Treasury yields pushed toward 4.19%... a reminder that the bond market isn't easing up ahead of tomorrow's catalyst. | Economic data held the line. | Delayed JOLTS figures showed ~7.7M openings for both September and October, beating expectations and suggesting labor demand isn't falling off a cliff. | It didn't change positioning, but it kept the soft-landing narrative intact. | Looking to Tomorrow: Earnings lighten, but volatility won't. | Investors head into Wednesday's decision focused less on the cut itself and more on how policymakers frame the path through early 2026. |

| | | | | | President Trump just signed a new law… | That could unlock $21 trillion for everyday folks like you… | And potentially impact every checking and savings account in America. | Click here now because Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, and U.S. Bancorp… | Are already preparing for what could be the biggest change to our financial system in 54 years. |

| | | | One day before the Fed speaks, markets aren't debating whether we get a cut, they're gaming out what comes next. | Futures have a 90% probability baked in, so the real volatility hinges on four words Jefferies is hunting for in Powell's remarks: "in a good place." | If he says it, he's signaling confidence and a likely pause. | If not, the door stays open for early-2026 easing, especially with unemployment rising and the labor data now patchworked together from delayed releases. | That split matters because the FOMC itself is split. | Hawks see inflated asset prices; doves see a labor market losing momentum. | The latest JOLTS rebound, 7.7 million openings, sounds strong, but hiring hasn't followed, layoffs are rising, and quits are slipping. | It's resilience on the surface, fragility underneath, and it nudges positioning toward duration even as equities hover near records. | Layer on the political pressure. | Powell's term ends in May, with Trump signaling Kevin Hassett as his preferred successor. | Markets aren't pricing a "Trump Fed" yet, but they are watching how independence themes shape expectations around the next cut. | Taken together, the message is simple: liquidity wants to flow, risk wants to rally, but the Fed's tone, not the rate move, sets the path. | Tomorrow isn't about the cut. It's about how far Powell lets investors think they can run. |

| | | | Washington opened the week by pulling back a curtain. | A federal judge approved the release of Epstein-related grand jury documents… an unusual moment of forced transparency that lands squarely in the political sphere. | Markets won't trade the scandal itself, but they will trade the temperature around it. | High-profile disclosures tend to raise headline risk, which keeps volatility screens a little livelier than usual. | More concrete economic implications came from the agriculture front. | The FDA's conditional approval of Merck's screwworm treatment arrives as U.S. cattle herds sit at historic lows and beef prices remain a pressure point for consumers. | It's a step toward stabilizing supply, but not a fast one. | Ranchers still expect multi-year recovery timelines, meaning food inflation keeps one stubborn anchor in place, an issue retailers and protein producers have already been pricing into guidance. | The administration's student-loan move adds another layer. | Millions of borrowers in the SAVE forbearance may be pushed back into repayment sooner than expected, tightening household cash flow just as delinquency rates inch higher. | Discretionary spending feels that first; lenders and credit-sensitive names react next. | One political story, one supply-chain fix, one consumer hit. | None dominate the tape on their own, but together they sketch a simple through-line: | Washington decisions are drifting back into the real economy, and investors are recalibrating where the pressure shows up first. |

| | | | Global markets got a reminder today that the world doesn't move in one direction, but capital always follows the places that do. | And right now, few places are moving with more conviction than Vietnam. | Vietnam's market has broken from the EM pack, powered by retail liquidity, reforms that finally have teeth, and an FTSE upgrade that could pull billions in passive inflows. | It's become the rare EM story where policy, capital, and momentum align… and the rally is forcing global allocators to revisit exposures they've ignored for years. | Meanwhile, governments farther west are redrawing a different kind of map. | Australia's under-16 social media ban is the first real test of whether platforms can be regulated at scale. | The market takeaway is simple: compliance costs go up, verification tech becomes investable, and stricter age-gating in Europe now looks less hypothetical… VPN companies won't mind. | Trade politics also resurfaced. | China restarted U.S. soybean purchases but is still far short of its commitments, pushing Washington to roll out a $12B farmer aid package. | Soft commodity pricing stays tethered to diplomacy, not demand… an ongoing frustration for volatility models. | And along the Thailand-Cambodia border, the ceasefire is unraveling fast. | The risk isn't escalation, it's disruption. | That corridor feeds into regional manufacturing chains, and any prolonged instability would add stress to EM supply routes just as investors begin rotating back in. |

| | | | | | | | Markets drifted into the close, reshuffling risk rather than taking it. | JPMorgan's expense shock weighed on the Dow, silver's surge rewired commodity screens, and a steady JOLTS print kept the labor story "slowing but intact." | Tech held firm, small caps tagged another record, but conviction stayed muted with yields pressing higher. | The broader backdrop explained the hesitation. | It all fed into the same setup: risk appetite is there, but no one wants to front-run tomorrow's message. | The cut is priced. | The tone is the catalyst. |
