Data Blackout Amid Government Shutdown, What it Means for the Fed

Scott Welch joins Diane King Hall to discuss the "resilient" state of the economy as investors forge ahead without labor market data during the government shutdown. He believes this latest data won't make much of an impact on the Federal Reserve's decision as he says the rising inflation levels could give the Central Bank pause before another cut. Right now, Scott thinks the market is pricing in at least 1 more cut this year and says 2Q earnings season was strong. Later, he provides commentary on megacap tech stocks' outperformance saying "it's not necessarily like the dot com era" even with elevated valuations and a "circular investing" pattern taking place.
