PiQ Morning Blast is a daily live markets podcast hosted by Ryan Paisey and Michael Brown, covering global macro, geopolitics, and trading markets with no filter.
This morning Ryan and Michael opened with a significant overnight development: US military forces intercepted Iranian attacks on US destroyers in the Strait of Hormuz, then struck the Iranian military facilities used to carry out the attacks. Trump framed it as defensive action and confirmed the ceasefire remains in effect. The key question: with Iran so fractured and leaderless after months of strikes, does anyone actually know who fired first?
On UK elections, a senior Labour source summed up the results in three words not printable here. With a third of English council results declared, Reform UK is winning roughly one in three seats declared while Labour is losing close to half of what it was defending. Projections of 1,800 Labour seat losses are circulating. Keir Starmer said he “will stand as Prime Minister at the next general election” – a quote both Ryan and Michael agreed will age badly. Watch the Sunday papers and the weekend political shows for when the real manoeuvring begins.
On NFP, Michael walked through the April US jobs report due at 1:30pm London: consensus 65,000, with leading indicators broadly positive including ADP at 109,000 and initial claims at cycle lows. But as Michael put it, this is unlikely to move the needle on Fed policy – markets are pricing virtually nothing from the Fed through year end and the central bank is firmly focused on inflation, not payrolls.
