International Paper Chairman & CEO Andrew Silvernail discusses the company's improvement plan taking shape and equity outlook. International Paper has outlined early steps to improve performance, including boosting Ebitda to $4 billion in the medium term from $2 billion over the past 12 months. Costs savings are expected to account for $1.2 billion of the boost, with the remaining $800 million from its new commercial strategy. This is on top of integrating the DS Smith acquisition, which is projected to close in January. Execution is a risk since the shift represents a complete change in mindset from running mills full out. Silvernail spoke with Bloomberg's Alix Steel and Paul Sweeney

In a live interview with Texas Bureau Chief Julie Fine, Rob Kaplan, Goldman Sachs Vice Chair and former Dallas Fed President, shared his views on the appointment of Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve Chairman. Kaplan expressed confidence in Warsh's ability to lead, noting the significant challenges ahead, particularly with the upcoming Fed meeting. He highlighted the shift in market expectations over the past eight weeks, from anticipating a rate cut later in the year to now considering a possible rate increase or no change due to persistent inflation and elevated oil prices. Kaplan emphasized that Warsh will need to navigate internal Fed dynamics, including addressing recent dissent and clarifying the Fed's forward guidance. A key focus will be explaining the forthcoming dot plot, which is expected to indicate firmer interest rate expectations rather than lower ones. Kaplan underscored the importance of Walsh's preparation for the press conference and his efforts to unify the Fed's messaging amid complex economic conditions.
