US Markets Wrap: Markets Make New Highs as Politics, Profits and the Fed Collide

View descriptionShare

US stocks pushed to fresh record highs, shaking off political noise around a DOJ probe into Fed Chair Jerome Powell, but the tension is far from over. Christine Short, Head of Research, TMX Datalinx discusses what strong Q4 earnings momentum means for 2026, and why President Trump’s renewed push to cap credit card fees is unsettling bank stocks. We also look at consumer credit health as a key test of the soft-landing narrative, and why investor confidence in Fed independence may quietly become one of this earnings season’s biggest risks.
