We have a very divided Fed committee and external pressure, creating a much higher hurdle for the Fed to follow through, especially next week.

Cuts, if any, are likely in the back half of the year. Markets will remain volatile and reactive to data pricing in the crisis impact.
Asks for the 30-second portfolio play.
