Stifel Financial (SF) CEO Ron Kruszewski and Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi at the 2025 World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, to talk about the macro issues impacting the investment banking firm, including geopolitical tensions and the growing US deficit.

Kruszewski says that tensions between the US and other global powers impact Stifel. "Anything that impacts global flows impacts US flows, and as a financial institution, we're at the fulcrum between savers and people who need capital. We don't want to see those tensions."

The CEO raises some macroeconomic concerns about the growing US debt. "We are the reserve currency of the world. That has a huge advantage. However, we should never take that for granted, and so that's the other warning, you have got to be careful, is that we don't just believe we can print money forever,"

"This is about unleashing the economic activity primarily in the United States, and growth always trumps these concerns [about the national deficit]."

As the World Economic Forum continues in Davos, Switzerland, Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi is joined by Ralph Lauren (RL) CEO Patrice Louvet to talk about the impacts of US President Donald Trump's proposed tariffs on all imports from China.

"We've diversified our sourcing pretty dramatically over the past seven [to] eight years," Louvet says, explaining, "We used to be very dependent on China. China was more than 50% of our sourcing today. It's a low single-digit [to] mid-single digit [today]."

The CEO says, "What we've come to realize, and this is true for sourcing, but it's true for our overall approach as a company, diversification is critical ... For us, this ability to flex and to stay agile and nimble, I think, has served us pretty well and is going to continue to be a priority."

Despite efforts to move its supply chain away from China, Louvet indicates Ralph Lauren relies on China for some products. "China has some unique expertise in certain categories for us. Some of our more sophisticated sweaters are made in China. Some of our more sophisticated footwear is made in China."
