I write about markets, business, investing, and the small signals behind big financial moves.
Will the Fed cut interest rates? The answer is crystal clear now. Don’t expect any rate cuts in 2026; we’ll be lucky if they don’t hike rates again. Ignore all the market speculations, the hard data speaks for itself. America’s April CPI hit a 3-year high of 3.8% year-on-year, with a 0.6% month-on-month rise, and core inflation stood at 2.8%, all exceeding forecasts. With inflation still running hot, how could the Fed slash rates? That would only make things worse and undo all its past efforts to curb inflation.
kta has added support for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore to its Okta for AI
kta has added support for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore to its Okta for AI Agents product and extended the offering to work with non-Okta identity providers. The changes are designed to help organisations manage the identity, access and governance of AI agents across different platforms and enterprise systems. The Amazon Bedrock AgentCore integration gives customers a way to manage agent identities built on Amazon Web Services through ownership assignment, lifecycle controls and deactivation tools. The service can also discover agents by monitoring new OAuth consent grants in browsers and import agents from AgentCore through the Okta Integration Network. Once registered, agents can be assigned a human owner and baseline governance policies in a central system. Organisations can also define which resources those agents may access, set authentication methods and determine the scopes they receive. The product also includes workflow tools for user access requests and certification for AI agents. Customers can revoke an agent's access with a single action and capture system logs, tool calls and authorisation decisions for compliance and incident response.
