Most stocks fall as hopes weaken for a September cut to interest rates
Most U.S. stocks slipped on Wednesday after doubts rose on Wall Street about whether the Federal Reserve will deliver economy-juicing cuts to interest rates by September. The S&P 500 edged down by 0.1%, coming off its first loss after setting all-time highs for six successive days. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 171 points, or 0.4%, and the Nasdaq composite rose 0.1%. Stocks felt pressure from rising Treasury yields in the bond market after the Federal Reserve voted to hold its main interest rate steady. The move may upset President Donald Trump, who has been angrily lobbying for lower interest rates, but it was widely expected on Wall Street. What may have surprised investors more was Fed Chair Jerome Powell's pushing back on expectations that the Fed could cut rates at its next meeting in September. Besides Trump, two members of the Fed's committee have also been calling for lower rates to ease the pressure on the economy, and they dissented in Wednesday's vote. But Powell would not commit to a September cut in rates, pointing to how inflation remains above the Fed's 2% target, while the job market still looks to be 'in balance.' A cut in rates would give the job market and overall economy a boost, but it could also risk fueling inflation when Trump's tariffs may be set to raise prices for U.S. consumers. The Fed's job is to keep both the job market and inflation in a good place. Trump on Wednesday announced a 25% tariff on imports coming from India, along with an additional tax because of India's purchases of Russian oil, beginning on Aug. 1. That's when stiff tariffs Trump has proposed for many other countries are also scheduled to kick in, unless they reach trade deals that lower the rates. 'The economy is in good shape, but it's in an unusual situation,' Powell said. He also said that the Fed will receive two months' worth of data on inflation, the job market and other economic indicators before it meets again to vote on rates in September. That could give the Fed more confidence that the risk of high inflation is no longer bigger than the risk of a weak job market, a combination that would prod officials toward lowering rates. Powell's comments drove traders to pare back bets on a cut in September. They now see just a 45% chance of that, down from a nearly 65% probability a day earlier, according to data from CME Group. The yield on the two-year U.S. Treasury note rose to 3.93% from 3.86% late Tuesday. It tends to closely follow expectations for what the Fed will do with its overnight interest rate. The 10-year Treasury, which also takes into account longer-term expectations for the economy and inflation, rose to 4.36% from 4.34%. A report earlier in the morning suggested the U.S. economy's growth was much stronger during the spring than economists expected. But underlying trends beneath the surface may be more discouraging. 'Cutting through the noise of the swings in imports, the economy is still chugging along, but it is showing signs of sputtering,' said Brian Jacobsen, chief economist at Annex Wealth Management. On Wall Street, Humana rose 12.4% after the insurer and health care giant reported stronger results for the spring than expected. It also raised its forecasts for profit and revenue over the full year. Video-game maker Electronic Arts climbed 5.7% after likewise topping Wall Street's expectations. Companies are under pressure to deliver solid profit growth. They need to in order to justify the big jumps in their stock prices during recent months, which has caused some critics to say the broad U.S. stock market looks too expensive. Trane Technologies, whose stock came into the day with a 27.5% gain for the year so far, tumbled even though it reported a stronger-than-expected profit for the latest quarter. The heating, ventilation and air conditioning company's revenue came up short of analysts' estimates, as did its forecast for profit in the current quarter. It dropped 8.4%. Freeport-McMoRan, a copper producer with mines around the world, tumbled 9.5% after Trump signed an executive order to tax imports of copper at 50%. Starbucks slipped 0.2% after reporting a weaker profit than analysts expected as it tries to turn around its operations. The company is hoping to boost its performance through improved store operations and new products, including a cold foam protein drink. All told, the S&P 500 slipped 7.96 points to 6,362.90. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 171.71 to 44,461.28, and the Nasdaq composite rose 31.38 to 21,129.67. In stock markets abroad, indexes were mixed across Europe and Asia. Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell 1.4%, and South Korea's Kospi rose 0.7% for two of the bigger moves. Choe writes for the Associated Press.

18 countries apply for EU billions as Europe seeks to provide for its own security without the U.S.
BRUSSELS — Eighteen European Union countries have applied for billions of euros from a new defense fund aimed at helping Europe provide for its own security, the bloc's executive branch said Wednesday, with Poland seeking more than a third of the money. The Security Action for Europe (SAFE) fund is a 150-billion-euro ($173 billion) program of cheap loans that member countries, Ukraine and outsiders with an EU security agreement, like Britain, can use to buy military equipment together. The fund was launched after the Trump administration signaled that Europe is no longer a U.S. security priority. It's for buying key equipment like air and missile defense systems, artillery, ammunition, drones and 'strategic enablers' like air-to-air refueling. The European Commission said that Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia and Spain had applied for money so far. They have requested at least 127 billion euros ($147 billion) in total, it said. Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz said on Tuesday that his government has identified defense projects worth around 45 billion euros ($52 billion), but that the amount it receives will depend on how the commission allocates funds. Countries using the fund are urged to buy much of their military equipment in Europe, working mostly with European suppliers — in some cases with EU help to cut prices and speed up orders. Earlier this month, 15 EU countries were also permitted to use a 'national escape clause' to allow them to spend more on defense without breaking the bloc's debt rules. U.S. allies in Europe are convinced that President Vladimir Putin could target one of them if Russia wins its war on Ukraine. The SAFE fund and budget leniency are aimed at preparing Europe to defend itself from attack by the end of the decade, but even EU governments concede that this is an ambitious target.

White House lays out crypto policy priorities for Congress, regulators
The White House on Wednesday laid out its policy priorities for regulating digital assets, offering detailed guidance to Congress and federal regulators on how it hopes to fulfill President Trump's campaign promise to make the U.S. the 'crypto capital of the planet.' The 166-page report from Trump's digital assets working group provides recommendations for lawmakers and regulators on everything from crypto oversight to taxation to banking rules. 'We think this is probably the most comprehensive product that's ever been produced in regards to digital assets,' a White House official said on a call with reporters Wednesday morning. 'I think the industry will be extremely pleased with us.' The report, produced in response to a January executive order from the president, comes after months of efforts in Congress to pass digital asset legislation. Earlier this month, Trump signed the first major crypto bill, the GENIUS Act, into law. The legislation laid out a regulatory framework for dollar-backed digital tokens known as stablecoins. Meanwhile, lawmakers have continued to advance legislation seeking to clarify rules for the rest of the crypto market, most critically by splitting up oversight between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The House passed its version, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, earlier this month, while the Senate released a discussion draft of its own bill shortly afterward. The White House report put forward several recommendations for Congress, many of which appear primed to be included in such legislation. It calls for lawmakers to ensure the CFTC has spot market authority over non-security digital assets and to affirm a right to self-custody, in which crypto users can hold their assets themselves without the need for a third party. The report also directs Congress to determine the applications of the Bank Secrecy Act to the crypto market, while specifically calling for an exemption from such rules for software providers. It urges lawmakers to pass a law banning the creation of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) as well. Concerns over CBDCs nearly threatened to derail the passage of the GENIUS Act earlier this month, as a contingent of hardline Republicans refused to move forward on a trio of crypto bills without further assurances on an anti-CBDC measure. GOP leadership ultimately agreed to put an anti-CBDC provision in the National Defense Authorization Act, must-pass legislation that increases its chances of reaching Trump's desk. Meanwhile, as lawmakers continue to hash out legislation, the White House report suggests that the SEC and CFTC should 'use their existing authorities to immediately enable the trading of digital assets at the federal level.' This appears to give the two key regulators broad leeway to move forward with crypto regulation on their own. The SEC has already taken steps to lay out its approach to digital assets. After rolling back Biden-era rules and dismissing cases and investigation against numerous crypto cases, the agency has turned its attention to offering guidance on various crypto issues, from meme coins to tokenization. The CFTC, on the other hand, has been much quieter on the crypto front. The agency is currently operating with only two out of five commissioners after a series of departures. Both of the remaining commissioners have also indicated they plan to leave as well. Banking regulators, such as the Federal Reserve, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, are tasked with providing banks with clarity on crypto-related activities by the working group. The White House report also cautions these regulators against providing guidance based on specific technology, in a callback to concerns about so-called 'Operation Chokepoint 2.0.' The crypto industry and Republicans have accused Biden-era regulators of targeting the industry by discouraging banks from working with crypto firms — an effort they compared to an Obama-era program that targeted firearm dealers and payday lenders. The report also suggests banking regulators offer more clarity on the process for obtaining bank charters and Fed master accounts, as crypto firms like Circle and Ripple file applications. However, this is likely to be a point of contention going forward, as the banking industry urges regulators to pump the brakes on such efforts. The report underscores Trump's heavy focus on crypto in his second term in office. After once dismissing crypto as a 'scam,' he embraced the industry during his 2024 campaign, in which he promised to make the U.S. the 'crypto capital of the planet.' Since taking office, Trump has continued full-steam ahead, naming venture capitalist David Sacks as his artificial intelligence (AI) and crypto czar, hosting crypto leaders at the White House and signing an executive order establishing a strategic bitcoin reserve and digital asset stockpile. However, his embrace of the industry in his personal life has drawn scrutiny. The president and his sons launched a crypto venture, World Liberty Financial, last fall, which has since released a stablecoin. Trump also launched a meme coin shortly before inauguration and met with the top investors in the token earlier this year, while his media company has filed to offer several crypto-related assets.
