Summary
Sara Eisen joins from the ECB Forum in Portugal after speaking with global central bank leaders on a blockbuster panel, including Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh. Then, Anthropic investor Matt Witheiler of Wellington Management joins after Anthropic announces the Trump Administration reversed its ban on two of the company's AI models. Plus, we bring you Palantir…
Fed Chair Warsh dodges rate guidance at ECB forum, Meta surges on cloud push, GM sales dip, Anthropic export ban lifted, and experts say $2.50 gas is a long shot.
Key takeaways
- Fed Chair Kevin Warsh explicitly rejected forward guidance, emphasizing framework-level communication over data-point reactions, while reaffirming the Fed's commitment to 2% inflation and independence from political pressure.
- Meta's move into cloud compute sales (competing with AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud) signals a major strategic pivot, with the stock surging ~11% as excess AI infrastructure becomes a monetizable asset.
- Anthropic's export control standoff with the Trump administration highlights a core tension in US AI policy: restricting frontier models from allies while Chinese open-source models remain freely accessible domestically.
Why this matters
Central bank communication is undergoing a structural shift away from forward guidance toward framework guidance, while simultaneous moves by Meta into cloud compute and ongoing AI export control debates are reshaping the competitive and regulatory landscape for enterprise AI investment.
