    On today's podcast:

    (1) Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell led his colleagues to an outsize interest-rate cut designed to preserve the strength of the US economy as risks to the labor market mount, marking an end to their single-minded focus on quashing inflation.

    (2) Traders ramped up their bets on the pace of future US interest-rate cuts after the Federal Reserve reduced its benchmark by half a point and signalled more cuts coming this year.

    (3) The Bank of England is likely to decide against cutting interest rates for a second straight meeting, maintaining a patient approach to reversing the most aggressive policy tightening in decades.

    (4) Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant declared what he called a “new phase” in the war with regional Islamist groups and said troops would be diverted to the Lebanese border, an indication that long-held fears of a wider conflict may soon be realized.

    (5) The City of London thinks the UK could attract as much as £7.7 billion ($10.2 billion) more investment by 2030 if it did a better job of attracting foreign sovereign wealth.
