On today's episode of Market Brief – After Hours, the Federal Reserve held rates at 3.50-3.75% but delivered a shocking 8-4 split vote — the sharpest internal dissent since 1992 — as oil surged over 7% on Trump's decision to maintain the naval blockade of Iran, pushing WTI to $107 and Brent to $118. USD/JPY broke above the critical 160 level for the first time, the DAX extended its losing streak to eight consecutive days, and Australia reported inflation reaccelerating to 4.6%. Bloom Energy rocketed 27% on a raised revenue forecast and Visa jumped 8% on earnings, while Teradyne crashed 19% on soft guidance, GE Healthcare dropped 13% after cutting its outlook, and Robinhood tumbled 13% on an earnings miss. We break down the full picture across global equities, oil, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, NZD/USD, USD/JPY, gold, and silver.
