    Baltimore bridge: Supply chain is a 'complex animal,' but 'bigger picture' looks okay

    As investors grapple with rate cut uncertainty, they are eager to assess how it will impact the current market dynamics. NewEdge Wealth Senior Portfolio Manager Ben Emons joins Yahoo Finance Live to discuss market outlooks. Emons notes that GDP data has shown strengths "across the board." He highlights the importance of government spending, stating that as long as it remains steady and "doesn't change," it gives him confidence in the economy — suggesting that the market rally has the potential to "broaden." Regarding the Baltimore Key Bridge tragedy, Emons believes its effect on the supply chain will be "offset" by other ports of entry. He acknowledges that the supply chain has always been a "complex animal," saying investors cannot truly predict "the exact chain of effects that will take place from here" or how it will affect markets until the situation fully unfolds. However, he notes that the market is currently "watching and waiting." For more expert insight and the latest market action, click here to watch this full episode of Morning Brief.

    US STOCKS-Wall St lackluster ahead of Easter break, eyes sharp Q1 gains

    Wall Street's main indexes struggled for direction on Thursday in lean trading ahead of Easter break, while investors awaited data to gauge the Federal Reserve's policy path on the last business day of a strong first quarter. The three main U.S. indexes were set for robust quarterly gains, with the S&P 500 on track for its best first quarter performance since 2019, as an AI-fueled rally and optimism around the timing of the Fed's rate cuts helped lift Wall Street to record highs this month. At current levels, the blue-chip Dow is less than 1% away from the 40,000-mark, a level it has never breached.
