What Mattered Today

The ASX pulled back sharply today as AI-related margin fears continued to drive aggressive selling across software and high-multiple names. Despite the weak finish, the market still closed the week up ~2.4%, underpinned by a fantastic week from the banks on better-than-expected results.

13/02/2026 17:42

GQG Partners (GQG) $1.735

GQG +7.76%: Delivered solid FY25 earnings growth that came inline with consensus expectations. Portfolio underperformance has characterised the year, however CIO Rajiv Jain believes their bearish stance toward technology and AI remains the right call.

Question asked 07/02/2026

The new Fed Chair.

Hi From what I've been reading it would seem that Trumps pick for the new Chair of the Fed, Kevin Warsh, isn't going to start slashing interest rates down towards 1% which, judging by his various comments in recent months, is where Trump has thought they should be. So why do you think Trump went for Warsh instead of just installing a puppet who would do what he told them to do when it came to setting interest rates? Do you think Trump (or his advisers) had a moment of clarity and decided that it was better for the Fed to maintain the appearance of independence after all? Does the fact that setting interest rates is a majority decision by the FOMC make it too hard for Trump to actually influence those decisions? Or have I missed something about Warsh and he's actually likely to be influenced by Trumps bullying tactics? Regards, Carl
