US Says Iran Ceasefire Still In Place After Hormuz Clash | Balance of Power 05/05/2026

From Bloomberg Markets and Finance.

"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today’s show, Representative Bryan Steil (R-WI) says while he hopes to see lower interest rates in the near future, the Fed must remain "data-driven, not politically-driven" in its decision making. Javier Garcia, CEO of World Central Kitchen, discusses the humanitarian impact of the conflict in the Middle East, saying he hopes to provide meals in Iran “if we can.” Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) expresses optimism about the path forward for the CLARITY Act in Congress.
