Our Head of Corporate Credit Research Andrew Sheets explains why the recent revival of M&A activity has room to accelerate.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley. Today – a discussion of merger and acquisition activity or M&A. Last year, we had a view that this activity would pick up significantly. We think we're seeing that increase now. It has further to go. It's Wednesday, October 29th at 2pm in London. We have been firm believers at Morgan Stanley in a significant multi-year uplift in global merger and acquisition activity or M&A. That conviction remains. The incentives for this type of action are strong in our view; activity still lags what fundamentals would suggest, and supportive regulatory shifts are real. M&A has now returned, and importantly, we think there's much further to go. Indeed, M&A is very closely linked to corporate confidence, and we think investors need to consider the possibility that we'll see an even bigger surge in this confidence – or a boom. First, policy uncertainty is declining as U.S. tax legislation has now passed, and tariff rates get finalized. It's the relative direction of this uncertainty that we think matters most for corporate confidence. Second, interest rates are declining with the Fed, European Central Bank, and Bank of England all set to cut rates further over the next 12 months. Third, bank capital requirements may decline in the view of Morgan Stanley analysts, which would unlock more lending for these types of transactions. Fourth, and very importantly, the regulatory backdrop is becoming more accommodative in both the U.S. and in Europe. Indeed, we think that companies may think that this is going to be the most permissive regulatory window for transactions that they might get for some time. Fifth, private equity, which is a big driver of M&A activity, is sitting on over $4 trillion of dry powder in our view – at a time when credit markets look very wide open for financing their transactions. And finally, we're seeing a surge in capital expenditure on Morgan Stanley estimates, which we see as a sign of rising corporate confidence, and importantly an urgency to act – with corporates far less content to simply sit back and repurchase their stock. All of these favorable conditions together argue for activity to push even higher. We forecast global M&A volumes to increase by 32 percent this year, an additional 20 percent next year, and reach $7.8 trillion in volume in 2027. This is a global story with M&A rising across regions, especially in Japan. It has cross-asset implications with M&A already being one of the biggest drivers of bond outperformance within the U.S. high-yield market. And this is also a story where we see a lot of value in bringing together macro and micro perspectives. While we think the top-down conditions look favorable for all the reasons I just mentioned, we also see a very encouraging picture bottom up. We polled a large number of Morgan Stanley sector analyst teams and asked them about M&A conditions in their sector. A large majority of them see more activity. So, where could these more specific implications lie? Well, as you heard on yesterday's episode, Healthcare and Biotech may see an uptick in activity. In the U.S., we also think that Banking and Media stand out. In Europe, Business Services, Metals and Mining, and Telecom seem most ripe for more M&A. Aerospace and Defense is an interesting sector that may see more M&A within multiple regions, including the U.S. and Europe, as companies look for scale. And with smaller companies trading at a valuation discount to their larger peers across the world, Morgan Stanley analysts generally see the strongest case for activity in larger companies acquiring these smaller ones. Thank you as always for your time. If you find Thoughts on the Market useful, let us know by leaving a review wherever you listen, and also tell a friend or colleague about us today.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney Poised to De-escalate Trade Dispute with Trump. Conrad Black analyzes the US-Canada trade dispute ignited by Ontario Premier Doug Ford's ad criticizing US tariffs. Black notes that while Ford was "cheeky," President Trump overreacted by suspending negotiations and mandating 10% tariffs. Prime Minister Mark Carney, seen as a diplomatic and well-informed figure, is expected to de-escalate the issue and work toward a reasonable agreement at the upcoming Asian conference. 1913 WINNIPEG

Amid the ongoing government shutdown, we look at alternate sources of data to draw a picture of what's happening with inflation, the labor market, and home sales. Our experts provide insights on the market's reaction to these reports, the anticipated Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting next week, and the performance of different sectors and asset classes. We also touch on some unusual market dynamics, with low-quality and high-beta stocks outperforming higher-quality companies. Finally, we talk sandwiches in celebration of National Bologna Day. Speakers:Brian Pietrangelo, Managing Director of Investment StrategyGeorge Mateyo, Chief Investment OfficerStephen Hoedt, Head of EquitiesRajeev Sharma, Head of Fixed Income 02:06 – We highlight three key reports from the week: state-level initial weekly unemployment claims suggest no cause for concern, existing home sales are up slightly, and—despite the government shutdown—the Bureau of Labor Statistics was allowed to compile and release a mixed but overall favorable Consumer Price Index report.06:00 – Corporations seem to be navigating increased costs due to tariffs by cutting their labor force.08:50 – The Fed is likely to cut interest rates by 25 basis points at next week's FOMC meeting, with many expecting another 25 basis point cut in December, and several more next year. 10:44 – October continues to be a rally month for the bond market thanks to low market volatility, tight credit spreads, and abundant liquidity.12:59 – Equities continued to climb and set all-time highs as third quarter earnings season continues, with a spotlight on reports from Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta next week.15:53 – We discuss differences in quality within the equities and bond markets, and posit an apparent shift in principles and heuristics in equities between the pre- and post-pandemic periods. Additional ResourcesRead: Key Questions: Should Investors Get on Board With the Reshoring of American Manufacturing? Weekly Investment BriefKey QuestionsSubscribe to our Key Wealth Insights newsletterFollow us on LinkedIn

It's an Emmajority Report Tuesday on the Majority Report On today's show: U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins blames decades of farm consolidation for the rising cost of beef — an issue the Biden administration tried to address through an executive order promoting antitrust enforcement and support for small farms. But last August, Trump repealed that order, encouraging further consolidation in the agricultural sector. Meanwhile, American farmers are frustrated over Trump's decision to bail out Argentina with $40 billion and his tariff policies that pushed China to buy soybeans elsewhere, including from Argentina. And when reporters press Trump on the topic, he gets noticeably defensive. Justice correspondent for The Nation, Elie Mystal joins the program to discuss the gutting of the Voting Rights Act and other recent rulings by the Supreme Court. In the Fun Half: Laura Ingraham hosts two "independent journalists" who claim that SEIU representatives were claiming to recruit "youths" into the DSA at the No Kings Rallies over the weekend. A clip from 2016 where RFK, Jr perfectly defines how Trump is building a vicious Batya Ungar-Sargon claims Trump has no history of racism only for Keith Boykin to rattle off a list of Trump's racist activity spanning six decades.

De-Risk, Delegate, and Deliver a Great Exit: How Certified Exit Planner Julie Keyes Helps Founders Sell Smart Business Valuation Text Ad: Want a quick estimate of how much your business is worth? With our free valuation calculator, answer a few questions about your business, and you'll get an immediate estimate of the value of your business. You might be surprised by how much you can get for it: https://flippa.com/exit -- In this episode of The Exit, Steve welcomes Julie Keyes, a serial entrepreneur turned Certified Exit Planner and faculty member at the Exit Planning Institute (EPI). Julie shares how her own difficult exit nearly two decades ago inspired her to guide business owners toward smoother, more profitable transitions. Julie breaks down exit preparedness into two core pillars: owner readiness and business readiness. She stresses that true readiness starts long before a sale: owners must update legal, tax, and estate plans, and ensure their personal finances and mindset are aligned with life after the exit. On the business side, she focuses on transferability, decentralizing the owner's role, building strong teams, and creating a company that can thrive without its founder. Julie also discusses timing the sale, navigating the “five Ds” (death, divorce, disagreement, disability, and distress), and structuring negotiations with the help of skilled M&A advisors. Her message is clear: “Don't wait for an offer to learn what your business is worth.” This episode is a practical masterclass on planning early, reducing risk, and protecting your life's work. -- Julie Keyes is the founder and owner of KeyeStrategies, an advisory firm helping entrepreneurs build enterprise value and prepare for successful business transitions. A lifelong entrepreneur turned Certified Exit Planning and Value Growth Adviser, Julie brings firsthand experience from starting, growing, and selling multiple companies. Recognized twice as EPI's “Thought Leader of the Year,” she's a national speaker, faculty member for the CEPA Program, and author of Poised for Exit: A Woman Entrepreneur's Guide to Business Transition.

The Supreme Court is gearing up for what could be one of the most significant cases of the November term, and it directly involves President Donald Trump. Just last month, on September 9th, the Court made the unusual decision to grant certiorari and expedite a case involving the Trump administration, consolidating it with another related matter. The case, officially docketed as number 25-250, pits Donald J Trump, President of the United States, against V.O.S. Selections, Inc. and other parties.What makes this particularly noteworthy is the speed at which everything is moving. The Supreme Court rarely fast-tracks cases, but they've done exactly that here, setting oral arguments for Wednesday, November 5th, 2025. That's less than three weeks away. The case originated from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which issued its decision on August 29th. Within days, Trump's legal team filed a petition for certiorari and immediately requested expedited consideration. The Court granted both the motion to expedite and the petition on September 9th, consolidating it with case number 24-1287.The briefing schedule has been incredibly compressed. Respondents in the consolidated case and petitioners had to file their opening briefs by September 19th. Amicus curiae briefs, those filed by interested parties not directly involved in the case, were due by September 23rd. The response briefs from the petitioners and respondents were due tomorrow, October 20th, with supporting amicus briefs due by October 24th. Reply briefs must be filed by October 30th, just days before the oral arguments begin.Meanwhile, in Texas, Attorney General Ken Paxton secured a victory in the Fifteenth Court of Appeals on October 15th against what he called a radical, open borders group that allegedly illegally told people not to vote for President Trump. This development adds another layer to the ongoing legal battles surrounding the Trump administration.The Supreme Court has allocated one hour for oral argument in the consolidated cases, which is standard for cases of significant importance. The Court has already received the record electronically from the Federal Circuit and from the United States Court of International Trade, making everything available through PACER, the federal court electronic records system.What remains unclear from the public docket is the specific nature of the questions presented, though the involvement of V.O.S. Selections and the routing through both the Court of International Trade and the Federal Circuit suggests this may involve trade or tariff issues. Multiple amicus briefs have been filed, including one from Advancing American Freedom and various state respondents, indicating broad interest in the outcome.With oral arguments set for November 5th, we're likely to see intense preparation from both sides over the next two weeks. The Court's decision to expedite and consolidate these cases signals their recognition of the urgency and importance of the issues at stake.Thank you for tuning in, listeners.

Supreme Court Poised to Limit Racial Gerrymandering; War Powers Debate on Venezuela. Richard Epstein discusses how the Supreme Court appears ready to limit the use of race in drawing voting districts (racial gerrymandering), reflecting a shift towards colorblind jurisprudence. However, the Court is likely to avoid restricting political gerrymandering. Separately, Professor Epstein argued the president's use of "narcoterrorism" to justify military action in Venezuela is inappropriate, noting that the War Powers Act is often circumvented. 1937 SCOTUS

Domino's Pizza (DPZ) reports earnings tomorrow morning. Ahead of the release, Likefolio's Landon Swan says the company's unique approach to value and customer experience is paying off. Despite a recent pullback in the stock, Swan believes Domino's is undervalued, citing high consumer happiness numbers and a 7% year-over-year increase in web visits. Swan attributes the divergence between web visits and stock price to the company's efforts to attract price-conscious customers with deals like the "Best Deal Ever." With a brand refresh on the horizon, Swan sees a potential buying opportunity in Domino's, especially if the company can deliver on same-store sales and international growth.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this episode of Poised for Exit, we are excited to be joined again by Heide Olson, Founder & CEO All In One Accounting for Part 2 of the conversation on preparing a company's books and operations for a successful transition. Heide explains why clean financials, accurate month-end closes, reconciled balance sheets, and meaningful budget reviews are essential to telling a credible story that buyers and stakeholders can trust.Our discussion explores the key metrics every business should track, how technology and automation can save time and reduce risk, and why having a second set of eyes on financials strengthens confidence and value. Heide also highlights the difference between running a lifestyle business and building a transferable asset by sharing real client stories that show how timely reporting can uncover risks and create opportunities.Ultimately, behind every set of numbers is a narrative, and when that story is clear, consistent, and well-documented, it builds confidence for owners, inspires trust from buyers, and sets the stage for a successful transition! Connect with Heide hereLearn more about All In One Accounting here Connect with Julie Keyes, Keyestrategies LLCFounder, Consultant, Author, Pod-caster and Instructor

In the latest episode of the Crude Report: TMX Series, Argus Americas Crude west coast reporter John Cordner talks with deputy editor Amanda Smith about Canadian crude exports via the Trans Mountain pipeline. Increased production and more favorable arbitrage economics are expected to boost waterborne exports from the Vancouver area. Topics discussed: Although most Canadian crude exports head to the US, last year's Trans Mountain Pipeline Expansion (TMX) has provided the conduit to export an average of 440,000 b/d to the US west coast and Asia this year. Canadian and condensate production is projected to reach a record 5.05mn b/d in the fourth quarter, increasing the need for export capacity. December TMX export volumes may match March's record levels of 530,000 b/d, with indications suggesting the heavy Canadian waterborne fob Vancouver premium to inland prices in Alberta will be high enough to make pipeline flows more lucrative.
