Late-Night Under Fire: Is This the End of Free-Wheeling Monologues in the Trump Era and Beyond? The suspension of Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show by ABC this week should alarm anyone who believes in the principles of free speech and the role of comedy in a democracy.

It is about the growing pressure on networks to silence critical voices, especially when those voices take aim at the political right.

The $14 Trillion US Stock Rally is Seeking a Fed Cut Playbook
One of the most striking developments in the global financial landscape this year has been the $14 trillion rally in the US stock market, driven by investor optimism that the Federal Reserve will soon begin lowering interest rates. The optimism that looser monetary conditions will prolong the economic growth cycle is reflected in this surge, which is primarily concentrated in equities but also spreads across sectors and asset classes. It also reveals the delicate balance between market realities, policy signals, and expectations. The rally began gathering momentum as inflation in the U.S. showed clearer signs of moderation compared to the peaks of recent years. For months, the Federal Reserve has maintained a cautious stance, keeping rates elevated in order to ensure that inflationary pressures do not reignite. However, investors are now increasingly convinced that a pivot toward rate cuts is inevitable. The belief is that slowing consumer prices, cooling labor market conditions, and global economic uncertainties will collectively push the Fed to loosen policy. Since the most recent low, market capitalization has increased by nearly $14 trillion as a result of strong inflows into stocks based on this assumption. Because technology stocks are particularly sensitive to expectations regarding interest rates, they have been at the forefront of this rally. With lower borrowing costs on the horizon, high-growth companies, especially in artificial intelligence, semiconductors, and cloud computing, appear more attractive to investors. Mega-cap firms have delivered impressive earnings and provided guidance that aligns with a lower-rate environment, amplifying enthusiasm for the sector. Yet, the rally has not been confined to technology alone. Cyclical sectors, industrials, financials, and consumer discretionary shares have also joined the climb, signaling a broader belief in economic resilience.
