Bloomberg Surveillance: Market Outlook and NYC Race
Watch Tom and Paul LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF. Bloomberg Surveillance hosted by Tom Keene & Paul SweeneyJune 25th, 2025 Featuring: 1) Brian Levitt, Global Market Strategist at Invesco, joins to discuss his outlook for equities and the economy in the second half of 2025. Fed Chair Jay Powell told lawmakers that if inflation pressures remain contained, the Fed will cut rates sooner rather than later, but didn't point to a particular meeting, and markets are telling Powell that he will be lowering rates more quickly than he portrayed. 2) Fred Neuman, Chief Asia Economist at HSBC, joins for a discussion on how an oil spike could lead to an inflation spike, and why the Israel-Iran conflict's impact on oil is crucial to China and Asian economies. It comes as President Trump announced on social media that China can continue to purchase oil from Iran, potentially undermining years of US sanctions on Iran. The announcement surprised oil traders and officials in Trump's own government, and it is unclear how the US Treasury and State Department will interpret and enforce related sanctions. 3) Ali Vaez, Iran Project Director of the Crisis Group's Iran Project, joins to discuss the conflicting views about the whether the US destroyed Iran's nuclear capabilities and whether there is any room for diplomacy in the Israel-Iran conflict. President Trump disputed an intelligence report that found the airstrikes he ordered on Iran had only a limited impact on its nuclear program. The ceasefire between Israel and Iran remains fragile, with a focus on nuclear diplomacy and assessments of how much damage was done to Iran's nuclear program. 4) Alicia Levine, Head of Investment Strategy and Equities at BNY, joins to talk about volatility in equities and offers her S&P target. Traders are shifting their focus to the US economy and how trade risks and fiscal pressures could affect corporate earnings and growth, with a fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran appearing to hold.

Joor's Solution to Fashion's Need for Speed is a Digital Trade Show
In today's retail relay, growth hinges on handing buyers the baton of evergreen bestsellers and fresh-drop stock primed to ship at the speed of style. After all, McKinsey reported last November, one-third of consumers now expect same-day delivery to keep pace with their fashion fix. In response to these evolving demands, Joor developed a first-of-its-kind digital show to unite fashion brands with inventory available to sell (ATS) now. The fashion apparel sector's wholesale management ecosystem is calling it the Ready-To-Ship Style digital event, as developed to address the evolving needs of the industry's retail landscape. More from Sourcing Journal FedEx Faces $170M in Tariff Headwinds as US Cracks Down on De Minimis China Port Volumes Hit Record Highs on US Tariff Truce Footwear Firms Rejiggering Supply Chains Will See Long-Term Benefits 'Brands are seeking efficient ways to sell through existing inventory, while retailers require the agility to place orders closer to delivery, minimizing risk by reacting to trends and real-time product performance,' said Amanda McCormick Bacal, senior vice president of marketing at Joor. 'By focusing on available-to-sell inventory, this groundbreaking digital experience provides access to products before prices are impacted by upcoming tariffs, as well as a showcase for evergreen styles which have become increasingly vital to retailers' assortments.' The digital trade show, hosted on Joor Passport, features 145 brands—including Mother Denim, Juicy Couture and Farm Rio—all with ATS inventory. Participating players can showcase brand bestsellers, evergreen pieces and carryover styles to 'maximize visibility of current stock,' Joor said, 'and drive sales ahead of the upcoming tariff changes.' Retailers looking to address these evolving market needs quickly, meanwhile, can now source styles in stock and ready to ship rather than placing orders to be delivered six months later. Joor's exclusive transaction data revealed several 'seismic shifts' within the luxury wholesale fashion industry over the past five years. Retailers are increasingly placing orders on shorter lead times, the data found, and placing smaller initial orders to save more of the company's buying budget for in-season purchases. In fact, per the New York-based platform, the average time from a wholesale order being placed to the product shipping has fallen 66 percent—from a high of 253 days in 2019 to just 86 days in 2024. In addition, evergreen styles continue to signify the climbing importance of such core items' driving overall sales volumes—growing from 37 percent of gross merchandise value (GMV) on Joor in 2019 to 47 percent in 2024. 'The fact that nearly half of total transaction volume is now dedicated to evergreen products demonstrates brands continued focus on maximizing best sellers and retailers' continued desire to invest in proven commercial winners,' Joor said. Looming tariffs seriously influence the wholesale fashion market's need for speed as well. Joor's tariff survey from April confirmed that 85 percent of brands anticipate increasing prices because of global tariffs, creating an urgency for retailers to order and receive goods in advance of these price hikes. The Joor Ready-To-Ship Style passport show runs until August 18.

Musk-Trump Feud Reignites As Billionaire Attacks Spending Bill Backers
The feud between President Donald Trump and his former ally, Elon Musk, was reignited once again on Tuesday after the world's richest person said he'll back primary challenges against GOP lawmakers voting for the president's signature spending bill, prompting Trump to retaliate by threatening to scrap government subsidies for Musk's firms. Elon Musk looks on during a news conference with US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office of the ... More White House in Washington. AFP via Getty Images Musk attacked the spending bill in a series of post on X on Monday night and early Tuesday morning, saying: 'Every member of Congress who campaigned on reducing government spending,' and backed the mega bill 'will lose their primary next year if it is the last thing I do on this Earth.' The billionaire then tweeted, 'If this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day,' as he bashed what he described as the 'Democrat-Republican uniparty.' Musk later said that anyone who votes for the legislation after campaigning 'on the PROMISE of REDUCING SPENDING' will see their face on a poster of Pinocchio with the caption 'LIAR' followed by the text 'Voted to increase America's Debt by $5,000,000,000,000.' The X owner reshared the results of an unscientific poll he conducted on the platform last month during his public blow-up with the president and wrote 'VOX POPULI VOX DEI 80% voted for a new party.' Earlier on Monday, Musk had attacked the GOP and the spending bill, tweeting: 'It is obvious with the insane spending of this bill, which increases the debt ceiling by a record FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS that we live in a one-party country – the PORKY PIG PARTY!!' This is a developing story.
