MSG SPORTS AND THE NEW YORK KNICKS RINGING THE CLOSING BELL AT THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE (NYSE) HOUSTON, TEXAS, UNITED STATES (JANUARY 16, 2026) (REUTERS -  Access all) 2. (SOUNDBITE) (English) CONCURRENT ASSET MANAGEMENT, CHIEF INVESTMENT STRATEGIST, LEAH BENNETT, SAYING: “I think the market is really interesting today for a multitude of reasons. One, I do think it's quite fascinating if you think about the market in general, it likes stability and we have not had stability this year, especially from a macro perspective and geopolitical perspective. And I think we have this big battle between secular spending on AI and the headwind with potential missteps by the administration or on policy in general.” 3. WHITE FLASH 4. (SOUNDBITE) (English) CONCURRENT ASSET MANAGEMENT, CHIEF INVESTMENT STRATEGIST, LEAH BENNETT, SAYING: “So I think there is a variety of things that could materialize as far as potential missteps. The obvious is the changes in the Fed and potential concerns about independence of the Fed as we go through the change in composition there. So that's one area. If there is a belief there is less independence by the Federal Reserve, that could certainly cause a pullback in the market. I don't think we know the long term ramifications of Venezuela yet. Certainly more lower oil prices would be a positive. But what are going to be the economics for oil companies as they… as they come in Venezuela? And what is the long term stability of that country as well. So and I still don't think we really know what's going to happen with tariffs. Are we going to to see additional revenue generated by tariffs to pay down the debt? So there's a lot of uncertainty and the any potential missteps and some of those items could lead to a pullback in the markets.’ NEW YORK, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES (JANUARY 16, 2026) (NYSE - Access all) 5.
