The FTC is about to undergo leadership changes. Wedbush analysts believe that this is a major positive for large technology companies led by Amazon, Meta Platforms and Microsoft. Shares of Amazon and major technology companies rose on Wednesday after President-elect Trump said he would appoint Andrew Ferguson to lead the FTC, replacing Lina Khan, the current FTC chairman. Khan is the main critic of large technology companies. She filed a lawsuit against Meta and Amazon, and also challenged Microsoft to acquire Activision Blizzard for $69 billion, but it was unsuccessful. Ferguson is a Republican and has served as a member of the Federal Trade Commission.

We expect the strong to be stronger, because Mag 7 has started the M&A engine again, and Microsoft, Oracle Bone Inscriptions, Alphabet, Amazon and Tesla will accelerate the transaction to expand their technology moat. "Inflation data released the Fed's interest rate cut in December, but it lit up a yellow light for next year. The latest inflation data may make the Fed more cautious about the pace of interest rate cut, but not now. The latest report shows that inflation in the United States in November was in line with expectations, so investors still generally expect the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by 25 basis points next week.

This concern may prompt officials to be more restrained in predicting the number of interest rate cuts in 2025, while waiting for more evidence that inflation will steadily reach the target. Fed policymakers will release new forecasts and interest rate outlook at the end of the policy meeting in Washington on December 17-18. "I think they can safely cut interest rates by 25 basis points in December. The market is ready for this, "said Loretta Mester, former president of Cleveland Federal Reserve Bank. "However, they must reconsider next year, because now it seems that the progress of inflation has really stagnated."
