WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's proposal to send $5,000 to every American adult if his Republican Party maintains control of the House and Senate in the November election needs congressional approval, House Speaker Mike Johnson said Sunday, while pledging to try to make it happen.
Trump made the unusual pitch at the party's midterm convention in Dallas last week, promising a "Trump Dividend" if voters keep the GOP in power on Capitol Hill. The president later told CBS News Texas that he did not think Congress would need to authorize the payments, though he did not specify how he could spend more than $1 trillion without lawmakers' authorization.
But Johnson, R-La., said congressional approval is needed. "I would ***** ume, yes, he'd need Congress to act, and that's a creative idea," he said.
A few hours later, Trump said he would deliver on his promise. "The 5,000's going to happen, 100%," he told reporters before boarding Air Force One in Ireland, where he attended a pro golf tournament at his resort.
Johnson, meanwhile, said he would work to get Trump's proposal through Congress despite a small Republican margin.

SPY surged 11% year-to-date while home prices hit all-time highs, powering a record $12.5 trillion single-quarter wealth gain to $185.7 trillion total.
The personal saving rate collapsed to 2.8% from 5.8% a year ago as Americans spend paper gains concentrated among the wealthiest households.
Household net worth hit 571% of GDP, just shy of the 574% record that previously preceded the Fed's most aggressive rate-hiking cycle in four decades.

American households just booked the largest quarterly wealth gain in history, and most Americans do not feel any richer. Federal Reserve data released this month shows U.S. household net worth jumped $12.5 trillion in the second quarter of 2026, reaching a record $185.7 trillion. That single-quarter increase exceeds the annual gross domestic product of every country on earth except the United States and China. It is the eleventh straight quarter of gains, a streak that has added $43.4 trillion to household balance sheets and pushed ***** ulative wealth creation since the 2020 pandemic to $83.9 trillion. Yet the University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index came in at 55.2 in July, a level the survey's own interpretation guide classifies as recessionary.

Fundstrat's Tom Lee took the Future Proof Citywide stage earlier this year with CNBC's Scott Wapner for a session that landed in the middle of a jittery tape that included geopolitical conflict, oil spiking, private credit cracking, and fresh doubts about AI spending. Not too far off where we find ourselves currently, but with an awful lot of volatility and shifting, uncertain outlooks between these six months. While their conversation was a snapshot in time, you can expect more of this kind of sharp, thoughtful ****** ysis next week.
The contrarian take of the session was oil. High crude, Lee argued, is actually constructive for U.S. equities. With the U.S. as a net exporter, our economic competitors are importers, and stalled global growth pushes investors toward growth stocks, which is about 80% of the U.S. market. On AI CapEx, he pushed back on the sticker shock, claiming roughly $700 billion a year is a fraction of the $60 trillion global labor market and small change against daily moves in gold.
Lee also made the case that software had bottomed at the time, that enterprises building their own tools inherit the maintenance burden software companies exist to carry, and that private credit is genuinely bad but not a GFC repeat, with the real fix being taking private companies public rather than pushing private product into retail portfolios. On crypto, his argument shifted from a perspective of digital gold to one of plumbing whereby Wall Street tokenizes ****** ets, and AI agents needing a settlement rail that handles fractions of a penny.
His parting advice was the oldest one in the book, dressed in new clothes: miss the 10 best days of each year and a 16% average return goes to roughly nothing. Danger and opportunity show up together. Staying invested is the perpetual drumbeat of advisors to their clients, but one that needs banging louder when markets feel much less certain.
Future Proof Festival is September 14–17 in Huntington Beach and includes four days on the boardwalk with advisors, ****** et managers, and fintechs building the modern wealth management industry. Find us at the ETF Oasis and don't miss the stellar agenda we've got lined up.

Extreme weather is creating a more demanding environment for property owners, insurers, and communities. According to the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), the United States recorded 27 confirmed billion-dollar weather and climate disasters in 2024, resulting in a total cost of $182.7 billion. These events spanned a wide range of extremes, including severe storm events, tropical cyclones, wildfires, drought/heat waves, and winter storm/cold wave events. Over the last decade, ***** ulative losses from these disasters have exceeded $1.4 trillion, driven significantly by population growth, material wealth, and increased development in hazard-prone areas. These figures suggest that the financial consequences of extreme events may increasingly depend on how accurately the value of exposed property is understood before a loss occurs.
That question becomes especially consequential during reconstruction. A 2026 report from Bloomberg, featured in Claims Journal, noted that surveys conducted by United Policyholders since 2007 found an average of two-thirds of wildfire survivors reporting that they were underinsured, with an average shortfall of $200,000 or more. The Insurance Information Institute has similarly estimated that two-thirds of American homeowners may be underinsured for wildfire losses, typically by about 20%, and in some cases by as much as 60%. These findings illustrate how the presence of an insurance policy can still leave a substantial difference between available coverage and the resources required to rebuild, particularly when construction costs rise after a catastrophe.
The financial implications can extend across the broader insurance ecosystem. Aon's 2026 Climate and Catastrophe Insight reported approximately $260 billion in global economic losses from natural catastrophes during 2025, compared with $127 billion in insured losses. For property stakeholders, such a figure may place greater attention on the relationship between the value ***** igned to an ***** et, the cost of restoring it, and the capital available when a loss occurs.
Frequency can add another layer to that calculation. Data from NCEI indicate that the average interval between U.S. billion-dollar disaster events was approximately 16 days during 2020–2024, compared with 82 days during the 1980s. NCEI notes that shorter intervals can leave less time and fewer resources for response, recovery, and preparation for subsequent events. As the time between major events contracts, property valuations may require more frequent attention because construction costs, labor conditions, materials, and local economic circumstances can change between policy reviews.

Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS) announced on September 7 that Warwickshire Pension Fund had appointed it to provide global custody, valuation reporting, capital call execution and performance measurement. The UK public pension fund has approximately £3.6 billion, or $4.8 billion, in ****** ets.
The appointment strengthens the pension-servicing franchise of Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS). Contract duration and fees were not disclosed in the announcement. The investment question is whether the relationship can generate meaningful recurring revenue and support further wins.
Scale sets the hurdle. Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS) reported $20.0 trillion of ****** ets under custody or administration at June 30. Warwickshire's ****** ets equal approximately 0.024% of that base. The pension ****** ets represent a servicing opportunity, with revenue depending on the services provided and contractual pricing.
Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS) won responsibility for several connected functions. Combining custody, valuation reporting, and performance measurement could make the relationship more embedded in the fund's operations. Capital call execution also provides a role in supporting private-market investments.
Warwickshire is one of 18 partner funds in Border to Coast Pensions Partnership. For Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS), successful delivery could provide a reference for additional pension mandates. The opportunity lies in repeating the service model across clients and expanding relationships as operational needs evolve.

President Donald Trump pledged Wednesday to send every American adult $5,000 if Republicans retain control of the House and Senate in the midterm elections, an extraordinary gambit to reverse his party's sagging fortunes in November.
The dubious promise would most likely cost more than $1 trillion and require congressional approval, and would further exacerbate the country's nearly $1.8 trillion annual budget deficit and concerns about inflation.
"If the Republicans win, you win with us and you get $5,000," Trump said during the GOP's midterm convention in Dallas. "It will be called the Trump Dividend."
He likened the payments to a corporation's distributions to shareholders, citing "our tremendous strength and success economically."
Within an hour, Vice President JD Vance appeared to try to walk back Trump's proposal — at least in part — by suggesting the dividend payments would not go to the wealthy. Vance suggested it could be paid for by U.S. tariff revenues, though the suggested payment dwarfs what the U.S. has taken in through the protectionist measures.

We've seen it with his remarks about Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) (calling it one of the "greatest companies in the history of humanity"), Meta Platforms (META) ("Nobody uses AI better than Meta"), and Nebius Group (NBIS) ("Nebius will take care of you").
Now the shine is on CrowdStrike Holdings (CRWD), the cybersecurity company known for its cloud-native platform for endpoint security. At CrowdStrike's recent Fal.Con 2026 conference in Las Vegas, Huang said that CrowdStrike is Nvidia's top security partner.

Based in Midland, Michigan, Dow Inc. (DOW) is a global materials science leader that develops and manufactures chemicals, plastics, coatings, silicones, and other advanced materials used across industries ranging from packaging and construction to automotive, electronics, and consumer products.

Nucor Corporation (NUE) is the largest steel producer and recycler in the U.S., with operations spanning steel mills, steel products, and raw materials. Headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, the company produces a broad range of steel, from sheet and structural steel to joists, girders, and tubing, serving critical end markets such as construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, and energy.
With a market capitalization of $58.2 billion, NUE firmly sits in the large-cap category, reflecting its scale, industry influence, and leadership within the U.S. steel sector.

When Cathie Wood makes a move, Wall Street tends to pay attention. Her trades have become something of a market signal, especially when they involve the high-growth themes she has consistently backed. And in September, that shopping list included a little bit of everything — ****** e, fintech, crypto and biotechnology — while ARK Investment Management trimmed several large technology and healthcare positions.
In fintech, ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) has been steadily adding to its Robinhood Markets (HOOD) bet. On Sept. 4, the fund bought 28,589 HOOD shares worth roughly $3.5 million, just a day after the stock jumped 16.6%. ARK then returned to the checkout counter on Sept. 8, purchasing another $3.3 million worth of Robinhood's shares. The buying reflects growing optimism around Robinhood's prediction markets, banking, and crypto businesses. The additions have also pushed HOOD into ARKK's top 10 holdings, with a 4.17% portfolio weight.

Dell Technologies (DELL) shares have surged more than 316% so far in 2026, fueled by robust demand for AI infrastructure, increased enterprise investment in modernizing IT systems, and continued expansion of its customer base.
The company is also benefiting from strong demand for its AI-optimized servers, and the momentum is likely sustainable in the coming quarters. At the same time, rising AI demand is also driving demand for traditional servers and networking equipment, further strengthening Dell's long-term growth prospects.

That said, Shopify shares have reversed their intraday gains in recent hours and are now headed to end the Sept. 9 session down more than 5%.

The S&P 500 Index ($SPX) (SPY) closed down -0.48% on Wednesday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ($DOWI) (DIA) closed down -0.77%, and the Nasdaq 100 Index ($IUXX) (QQQ) closed down -0.29%. E-mini S&P futures (ESU26) fell -0.46%, and September E-mini Nasdaq futures (NQU26) fell -0.30%.
Stock indexes retreated on Wednesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling to a 5-week low. The broader market was under pressure for a second day amid mounting inflation risks. WTI crude oil prices surged more than +3% today to a 3.25-month high amid escalating hostilities in the Middle East, heightening concerns about energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz. The surge in energy prices is boosting inflation expectations and pushing bond yields higher. The 10-year T-note yield rose to 4.85% on Wednesday, the highest in 2.75 years. The higher bond yields weighed on stocks.

Nvidia (NVDA) Jensen Huang was seated next to US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on a G20 stage on Sept. 2, recalling the first time the two of them met, when he put a number on what the world is about to spend. "You recognize that the infrastructure buildout is not going to be in the tens of billions, but is going to be in the tens of trillions," Huang said. "That supply chain security is going to be necessary."
The venue was the US-hosted G20 innovation ministerial in Chapel Hill, NC, and the chief executive was in a fireside conversation with the Commerce secretary. Sam Altman appeared at the same event. The exchange was carried live and the "tens of trillions" line went out the same afternoon across the wires.

Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, says 91% of its balance sheet rests on money **** ody can take back. JPMorgan runs on deposits customers can pull any day. Strategy calls that the safer design.
The claim comes from a slide that the company put in front of investors. It puts Strategy's short-term funding gap at zero and JPMorgan's at negative $1.2 trillion. Strategy wrote those definitions itself.
"MSTR inverts TradFi," says Strategy.

Wall Street rarely changes its mind about a stock on the day a new phone gets announced. The number an ****** yst publishes is a bet on earnings two or three years out, and a keynote does not move that math on its own.
That's why ****** yst notes pile up in the days before an Apple launch. Firms restate where they stand, walk investors through what they expect on stage, and save the real estimate revisions for the quarter that follows.
Bank of America filed its note on Sept. 8. The rating and the target did not move. What sits underneath them did, however, and that's the part worth reading.
Apple (AAPL) shares closed at $316.22 on Sept. 8, down 1.17% on the session, according to StockAnalysis.com. That leaves the stock roughly 8% below the 52-week high of $344.57 it set in late July, with a market value near $4.61 trillion.
The pattern around these events is well documented. Shares have often drifted lower into a launch and again just after it, then recovered over the following 30 to 60 days, a cycle Bank of America mapped across 24 iPhone launches dating back to 2007.

Oracle's remaining performance obligations surged 363% to $638 billion, but $56 billion in quarterly capex pushed free cash flow deeply negative.
Jensen Huang disclosed NVIDIA can only meet 70% of current demand, while CoreWeave burned $5.7 billion in Q2 free cash flow against $104 billion in backlog.
Just released. Our **** ysts combed the entire stock market and named the ten best stocks to buy right now, and Oracle didn't make the cut. Enter your email to see the names that beat ORCL. The report is free. Enter your email and see if any of your stocks made the cut.
OpenAI now plans to spend roughly $750 billion on compute infrastructure through 2030, a figure that represents a 25% increase from earlier 2026 estimates. The company still calls itself "really short" on capacity. That gap, between three-quarters of a trillion dollars in planned spend and a stated capacity shortfall, is the number that reframes every AI infrastructure bet on the board, starting with Oracle (NYSE:ORCL).
Oracle is the clearest public-market conduit for that OpenAI dollar. In Q4 FY26, Oracle disclosed remaining performance obligations of $638 billion, up 363% year over year, of which $75 billion is tied to prepaid or customer-supplied GPU arrangements. Cloud Infrastructure revenue reached $5.79 billion, up 93% year over year, and Oracle Multicloud AI Database grew 404% in Q4. Global GPU utilization sits at 97.5%, and management said "there's still a massively higher demand than there is supply."

American Century Investments, an investment management company, released its first-quarter 2026 investor letter for the "American Century Investments Focused Dynamic Growth Fund". The letter can be downloaded here. U.S. stocks advanced sharply with double-digit quarterly gains largely due to robust earnings, resilient economic data, and momentum in AI-related stocks. However, there was a slight pullback in June as momentum waned and investors anticipated potential interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. Growth and AI stocks outperformed value stocks, while large-cap companies generally surpassed small- and mid-cap stocks. Underperformance was noted in healthcare and communication services, while industrials, particularly in aerospace and defense, contributed positively to performance. The fund's investor class returned 16.38%, slightly below the Russell 1000 Growth Index's 16.74%. The investment approach focuses on bottom-up financial ******* ysis to identify large-cap companies with long-term earnings growth potential, while aiming to mitigate non-financial risks. Please review the Fund's top five holdings to gain insights into its key selections for 2026.
