Chip Somodevilla The release of the minutes from new Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's first Federal Open Market Committee meeting scores as the most hawkish in over four years, according to recent sentiment analysis shared by SoFi Chief Market Strategist Liz Thomas. This intense hawkishness draws immediate comparisons to the economic backdrop of 2022. During that period, the Fed began aggressively raising interest rates and reducing its balance sheet to combat inflation that was surging well above its 2% target. The June FOMC minutes highlight that policymakers are deeply concerned about elevated inflation and are heavily prioritizing price stability, signaling a continued tight monetary policy environment rather than imminent rate cuts. Some Fed officials brought up the case for raising rates at the FOMC's June 16-17 meeting, though they didn't support a hike at that gathering. Rather, rates were held steady at 3.50% to 3.75%. The shift in tone is corroborated by Augur Infinity's data, which similarly spiked to a multi-year high.

Porsche Sales Tumble To Weakest In Six Years As Chinese Demand Plummets Days after Germany's top financial newspaper, Handelsblatt, reported that Porsche AG is planning more than 4,000 job cuts, the sports-car maker on Thursday revealed first-half sales figures that were the weakest in six years, with its China business falling off a cliff. For the January to June period, Porsche reported 122,306 vehicle deliveries across global markets, a 16% decline from the same period a year earlier. The first-half slump marked Porsche's weakest sales performance since 2020, with its top market, North America, seeing a 13% decline in vehicle sales, while China suffered an outright 32% decline. Softening luxury demand in the West and China's deepening slowdown are increasingly concerning for the high-end automaker. "With around 122,000 customer deliveries in the first half of 2026, we are below the same period last year but in line with our expectations," Matthias Becker, Member of the Executive Board for Sales and Marketing at Porsche AG, wrote in a statement. Porsche blamed the slowdown in North America on several issues: Among the sales regions, North America remains at the top with 37,712 deliveries. The decline of around 13 per cent can be attributed, among other factors, to the expiration of tax incentives for electric and hybrid vehicles as well as the end of production of the combustion-engined 718. Dismal delivery figures follow a report by Handelsblatt that said Porsche was considering eliminating as many as 4,000. Porsche's profit eroded further in the first quarter as the automaker faced mounting pressure from tariffs, geopolitical turmoil, and gaps in its model lineup. The emergence of Chinese EV giants like BYD and Chery in Europe has been a troubling development not just for Porsche but other legacy EU automakers. Porsche is part of the Volkswagen Group, where the VW CEO recently warned that more than 100,000 jobs could be eliminated as part of a massive overhaul. ...

CHUYN/iStock via Getty Images Analysts at Goldman Sachs on Thursday downgraded shares of infrastructure and construction company Granite Construction ( GVA ) to Sell from Neutral, saying much of its operational transformation and favorable industry tailwinds are already reflected in the stock price. The firm assigned a $139 price target, suggesting modest downside from current levels and making Granite ( GVA ) one of the less attractive opportunities within its engineering and construction coverage universe. The downgrade comes despite widespread praise for Granite's execution over the past several years. Once viewed as a company burdened by riskier project exposure, Granite has reshaped its business through acquisitions, investments in higher-margin operations and a deliberate effort to reduce exposure to large design-build megaprojects that historically carried greater execution risk. A key element of that strategy has been expanding the company's vertically integrated materials business, which generally generates stronger margins than traditional construction contracting work. Analysts said those investments have helped improve profitability and create a more resilient operating model. The turnaround has been difficult for investors to miss. Granite shares have climbed roughly 268% over the past five years, significantly outperforming many peers in the construction sector. During that same period, estimates for next-12-month earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization have increased by approximately 186%, reflecting both stronger fundamentals and improving investor confidence. Different environment ahead The concern now is less about Granite's ( GVA ) execution and more about the environment it faces going forward. The company benefited from one of the strongest periods of public infrastructure spending in recent history, fueled by federal funding programs and elevated government investment in transportation and public works projects. That back...
