FED CHAIR POWELL: THERE ARE WIDESPREAD CONCERNS THAT THESE ATTACKS WILL CONTINUE — AND THAT WOULD POSE A PROBLEM — REITERATING THE FED'S COMMITMENT TO BEING GOOD STEWARDS OF THE PUBLIC'S MONEY, WITH WALLER AND THE…

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell expressed concerns about the potential continuation of recent attacks, emphasizing the Fed's commitment to fiscal responsibility. This statement highlights the central bank's focus on maintaining stability amid rising geopolitical risks, which could influence risk appetite in financial markets. The remarks may particularly affect equities and financial sector stocks, as investor sentiment could shift in response to perceived threats to economic stability. Traders will likely pay close attention to upcoming economic data releases, such as inflation figures, which could further inform the Fed's monetary policy stance.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
