Warsh Takes Fed Chair With U.S. CPI at 3.8% as ECB Eyes Hikes and Global Rates Stay Elevated

Kevin Warsh inherits the Federal Reserve with U.S. inflation at 3.8% and markets pricing just a one-in-three chance of any 2026 rate cut. The ECB is moving toward a June hike, and China's banking system faces undisclosed bad-debt concerns. Three major economies are simultaneously tightening — or holding — amid persistent inflation and geopolitical pressure.

Q4 2026 Biotech Catalyst Season: Regulatory Deadlines and Data Readouts Against Cost Discipline and Slipping Timelines
From late October 2026 to January 2027, mid-cap biotechs cluster pivotal data presentations (ESMO, AHA, AASLD), FDA decision dates (ivonescimab BLA on 2026-11-14, lorundrostat on 2026-12-22) and Q3 earnings. Alongside these, several companies are managing capital: lowering R&D and SG&A guidance, pushing clinical milestones into 2027, authorizing a $400M buyback, and pursuing a delisting. Late-stage programs in oncology, hepatitis delta, hypertension and women's health look near commercial inflection, while cost cuts and delays point to uneven balance-sheet strength.

Where sources disagree
Ford Motor Company
Both facts give cash for Ford Motor Company at the same point in time (2025-12-31; FY 2025 year-end and Q4 2025 year-end are the same date). Both are labelled USD, but the values are 23,356,000,000 and 23.356, which cannot both be true in USD. The two numbers agree once the second is read as billions (23.356 bn = 23,356,000,000), so the economic content is consistent and the conflict is a unit/scale error in the Q4 2025 record. The period is not the reason for the conflict: a Q4 and an FY figure at the same year-end date should match.
