BREAKING: The US Financial Conditions Index is down to -1.75, the lowest in at least 2.5 years.
Financial conditions have eased -0.80 points since March as markets recovered.
Most of this easing was driven by equity gains and tighter credit spreads.
By comparison, the index stood near 0 in March 2025.
This comes despite the market pricing in ~20 bps of Fed rate hikes by the December 2026 Fed meeting, a complete reversal from the 40 bps of rate cuts expected before the Iran War.
Financial conditions are easing even as inflation risks continue to build.
BREAKING: Nvidia, $NVDA, officially becomes the first company in history to hit a market cap of $5.5 trillion.
The stock is at a fresh record high after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang was invited on President Trump’s trip to China.
Checkout our pre-print where we conducted a large scale clinical analysis looking at VTE rates in GBM. Excited to share mechanistic work in the near future showing how thrombosis drives GBM progression.

9 years ago, @HopeCollege took a chance on this kid, offering me the opportunity of a lifetime, to chase my wildest dreams. Today, I’m thrilled to announce my successful participation in the #neurosurgerymatch2024 pursuing my biggest dream yet.
Epilepsy surgery saves lives. Hemispherectomy is a powerful tool we offer patients. We investigated risk of postoperative #Hydrocephalus following hemispherectomy surgery, hoping to make this powerful tool safer
