The Canadian dollar strengthened against its U.S. counterpart on Wednesday, clawing back some of the previous day's sharp decline, as the Federal Reserve's signaling about prospects for interest rate cuts was not as hawkish as some investors had feared. The loonie was trading 0.5% higher at 1.3710 to the U.S. dollar, or 72.94 U.S. cents, after it touched intraday on Tuesday an 11-day low at 1.3784. The currency has been pressured in recent weeks by a wider gap between U.S. and Canadian yields as investors anticipated a delayed start to Fed rate cuts.

The former U.S. president and Republican presidential candidate secured 36 million shares of Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), increasing his stake from 57.6% as of March. Reuters reported last week that Trump would secure a stock bonus worth $1.3 billion from TMTG, equivalent to about half the majority stake he already owns in it, thanks to the wild rally in its shares. The bonus also reflects the exuberant trading in TMTG's shares, which have been on a roller coaster ride since the company listed on Nasdaq last month through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) and was snapped up by Trump supporters and speculators.

McDonald's (MCD) first-quarter earnings report showcased a combo meal of international headwinds, including global sales growth slowing behind figures from this time last year and boycotts related to the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict. Additionally, inflation and rising menu prices are taking a toll on lower-income consumers. On the fast-food chain's earnings call, McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski stated that "consumers continue to be even more discriminating with every dollar that they spend as they face elevated prices in their day-to-day spending." Placer.ai Head of Analytical Research R.J. Hottovy sits down with Catalysts to discuss whether McDonald's item prices are beginning to price out certain consumer demographics. Placer.ai data found McDonald's to maintain higher monthly foot traffic growth over the past year than its competition. "Right now consumers are really focused on value, and not just discounts. I think that low price point is something that they're certainly focused in on," Hottovy says. "We've seen groups that really market around a low price point, generally a higher visitation trade.
