You could call this an early Christmas gift. A delayed September PCE report was released last week, focusing on core inflation—a price measure closely watched by the Federal Reserve.

While attention is on this week's rate decision, eyes are already on next year. You could say the current Fed Chair, Jerome Powell, is on Trump's naughty list, and the nominee to replace him will likely be named in early 2026. What will that mean for the direction of monetary policy? Kenny Polcari, the Chief Market Strategist at Slatestone Wealth, shares insights on what investors are expecting from the Fed this week, who they think may replace Powell, and what to anticipate from the markets in the final weeks of 2025.

For years, there has been a push in Congress to ban lawmakers from investing in the stock market. Earlier this week, a House committee held a hearing on the STOCK Act, which passed in 2012 and tightened rules, requiring lawmakers to disclose their gains. However, some lawmakers, including Tennessee Republican Congressman Tim Burchett, say that the bill doesn't do enough. Rep. Burchett recently spoke with FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony about why he feels there are too many "inside traders" in Congress and why he wants tougher laws to stop them.

Powers speaks with Barb Clapp, CEO of Dwyer Workforce Development, a nonprofit that helps people get training in healthcare, who says by 2030 the shortage of nurses will dramatically effect all levels of healthcare.
