Wall Street on Edge: Inflation Spike, $58B Debt Test, and Trade Turmoil Collide
Wall Street is holding its breath as two market-moving forces line up: inflation and debt. Investors are watching closely as the U.S. and China restart trade talks in London, aiming to ease tensions and avoid another round of tariff escalations. Meanwhile, a $58 billion Treasury auction could test demand for U.S. debt at a time when long-end yields hover near 5%a level many thought would spark broader market reactions. BMO's Ian Lyngen calls this week's combo of May CPI and Treasury supply a tradable event, with core inflation expected to accelerate to 2.9% year-over-yearthe first uptick of the year. The S&P 500 (SPY) sits roughly 2% from its February peak, but volatility could return fast depending on how these numbers land. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Sign with META. Despite the rebound from April's tariff-driven slide, institutional investors have yet to jump back into equities in full force. Deutsche Bank notes that institutional positioning has been this low less than a quarter of the time since 2010. JPMorgan and Barclays, however, suggest the tide could be turning, with more big money managers set to ramp up equity exposure. That shift hasn't shown up yetBank of America's clients were net sellers last week, with institutions pulling out while hedge funds and retail buyers stepped in. Strategist Jill Carey Hall thinks the market may have already priced in much of the deglobalization risk, but not the potential upside from underappreciated tax policy tailwinds. On the corporate front, action is heating up. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) isn't grabbing headlines today, but its peers are moving fast. Meta's (NASDAQ:META) CEO Mark Zuckerberg is going all-in on artificial general intelligence, quietly assembling a powerhouse team to build out the next big wave in AI. Boeing (NYSE:BA) just secured its biggest monthly order tally in over a yearmuch of it inked during President Trump's trip to the Middle East. Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO) is rolling out new AI-powered upgrades across its networking portfolio to stay competitive in the enterprise race. Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM) posted a 40% revenue surge in May as chipmakers rushed to build inventory ahead of potential trade roadblocks. Not everything was rosyMcDonald's (NYSE:MCD) was slapped with a rare sell rating from Redburn Atlantic, and Citigroup (NYSE:C) is preparing to book hundreds of millions more in loan loss provisions, signaling early cracks in consumer credit health.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (NYSE:TSM) is one of the 1. On June 10, the company reported its May revenue, which surged 40% year-over-year to NT$320.5 billion ($10.7 billion) as demand remained high for its AI chips. The contract chipmaker, which supplies to tech giants such as Apple and Nvidia, had its revenue up 39.6% from a year earlier but down 8% from April's figure. According to TSMC's CEO C.C.
