Opening Bid

• Bond market braces for potential summer turbulence

  The bond market has been enduring its fair share of unknowns post President Trump’s Liberation Day. Some pros say the bond market is in a mini-crisis, while others aren’t willing to go that far yet. What happens in the bond market is important as it’s the lifeblood for how consumers buy and save – among other financial system considerations. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi chats with Doubleline Deputy CIO Jeff Sherman to see how his teams have been navigating the heightened bond market volatility of the past month. Interestingly, Sherman reveals Doubleline has been fairly measured during the bout of uncertainty in markets at the hands of the Trump administration’s trade war. But that doesn’t mean Doubleline isn’t taking some actions with an eye toward helping clients profit. Sherman warns that the bond market convulsions may not be done, as the Trump administration continues its trade war and looks to pass a new tax plan by July 4.

• Alcoa’s former CEO has a message for Trump

  One of the biggest debates in the business world right now is how major manufacturers will respond to fresh tariffs from the Trump administration. If you’re Apple (AAPL) CEO Tim Cook, can you uproot decades of supply chain work in China and build iPhone manufacturing sites in the US to beat tariffs? Or does it make more sense to absorb the Trump tariffs on China while also passing some of the pain on to consumers? Apple isn’t alone in this dilemma—automakers such as General Motors (GM) and Ford (FORD) have large plants in Mexico and Canada, also targeted by the Trump administration’s tariffs. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi speaks at length with former Siemens (SIEGY) and Alcoa (AA) CEO Klaus Kleinfeld. Kleinfeld—author of the new book Leading to Thrive—is no stranger to interacting with policymakers and world leaders. He was still CEO of Alcoa in 2017 when he was among the executives summoned to the White House to meet with then-first-time President Trump. He also joined other CEOs in exiting Trump’s special councils. Kleinfeld weighs in on the industrial and economic impact of Trump’s tariff actions, warning they will prove far from just a US headwind.

• TGI Friday’s CEO on how he will rescue once bankrupt restaurant chain

  The fight for restaurant relevance. Within the past year, the sit-down dining industry has seen its fair share of troubles. Hooters filed for bankruptcy earlier this year. Red Lobster managed to emerge from bankruptcy in September 2024. At the heart of the bankruptcies were changing demographics, shifts in how people work and poor decisions on food quality and experience. No sit-down restaurant encompasses this more than TGI Fridays. The company filed for bankruptcy in November 2024 following years of missteps. The company closed dozens of locations as part of the bankruptcy process. What has emerged is a much smaller franchisee led chain that is hoping to find some form of relevance again after a storied history with cocktails and potato skins. Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi sits down on the Opening Bid podcast with the person responsible for that turnaround, TGI Fridays CEO Ray Blanchette. Blanchette started as a manager trainee in 1989, rising the ranks to hold the CEO role for six years. Blanchette left in 2023. Can he save TGI Fridays? The clock is ticking.

• What Trump tariffs really mean to semiconductors: former Intel CEO

  There isn’t much Pat Gelsinger hasn’t done in the tech industry. He created cutting edge technology decades ago at Intel (INTC). Then went off to VMWare to reinvest the tech player. He then returned to Intel several years ago to revive the chip giant. But Gelsinger’s tenure at Intel was rocking as the company fell behind rivals like Nvidia (NVDA) and AMD (AMD)with AI chips. The company also made a big decision to start making its own chips, which came at a material cost to the bottom line. With results and the stock price under pressure, Gelsinger and Intel parted ways in December 2024. Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi talks with Gelsinger now that he has had some to reflect on his Intel tenure. Gelsinger has emerged as an investor in startups, taking his experience at Intel and seeking to help the next generation of tech leaders. Learn more about your ad choices.
