  • Amundi Purchases 2-Year U.S. Treasury Bonds, Bets on High Oil Prices and Financing Costs Weighing on U.S. Economy

    Amundi, with assets under management of $2.8 trillion, has begun purchasing 2-year U.S. Treasury bonds and has closed its short positions on U.S. short-term interest rates. Portfolio manager Nicolas Dahan believes that rising oil prices to $100 per barrel and soaring financing costs increase the risk of a slowdown in the U.S. economy. As the yield on 2-year U.S. Treasury bonds rises above 4.50%, their appeal as a safe-haven asset increases. Amundi is reallocating its bond investments in the U.S., Europe, and the UK while extending the duration of its portfolio.

  • Trump Family Transfers Over 20 Billion WLFI Tokens to New Ownership Contract to Facilitate Future Sales

    On September 14, according to the Washington Sun, President Trump and other founders of World Liberty Financial have transferred over 20 billion WLFI tokens into a new ownership contract, clarifying the path to future liquidity, replacing the previous indefinite lock-up. On May 19, four wallets simultaneously transferred their holdings into this contract, with one allocation matching Trump's disclosed holdings and the other three believed to correspond to allocations held by family members. According to governance rules approved in May, founders can choose an indefinite lock-up or a new timeline—destroying 10% of the allocation and gradually unlocking the remaining tokens over three years after a two-year cliff period. These tokens are currently not available for sale. World Liberty Financial denies that this move is preparing for a sale, while critics argue that the founders voluntarily chose the only option that ultimately allows token liquidity. Reports indicate that retail investors have lost over $1 billion.

  • Fed's Rate Hike in September Almost Certain, Analysts Say Current Conditions Resemble the 1990s Rather Than 2022

    On September 14, news emerged that following a rise in the U.S. core CPI in August, expectations for a Federal Reserve rate hike in September have surged, making an increase this week a high-probability event. LPL Financial's analysis of six tightening cycles since 1994 shows that the S&P 500 has averaged negative returns in the first four months after the initial rate hike, with an average increase of 6.7% over 12 months and a median of 10.7%. Notably, after the rate hike in March 1997, the S&P 500 rose by 42% over the year, while after the March 2022 hike, the maximum drawdown was approximately 25%. LPL believes the current macroeconomic environment is more akin to the late 1990s: the economy remains resilient, inflation is below the peak levels of 2022, and the starting interest rates are already relatively high. The AI investment boom may support capital expenditures. However, the firm does not expect a simple replication of the 42% increase seen in 1997, and the scale of this tightening cycle is unlikely to approach the cumulative 5.25 percentage points seen from 2022 to 2023.

  • U.S. 10-Year Treasury Yield Rises to 5%, First Time in Nearly Three Years

    On September 14, the yield on U.S. 10-year Treasury bonds rose to 5%, marking the first time in nearly three years.

  • 10-Year U.S. Treasury Yield Surpasses 5% Ahead of Federal Reserve Decision

    On September 14, ahead of this week's Federal Reserve meeting, the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yield rose to the critical psychological level of 5% on Monday, marking the first time in nearly three years. The market widely expects the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates to curb inflation. Data released last Friday showed that consumer prices in the U.S. accelerated in August, intensifying market expectations for a rate hike by the Fed to tackle inflation. Tom di Galoma, Managing Director at Mishler Financial, stated that this "could be the last straw that breaks the camel's back." Over the past month, yields have continued to rise due to increasing rate hike expectations, a surge in corporate and government debt supply, optimistic economic growth prospects, and concerns about the long-term fiscal path of the U.S. Galoma noted, "Our budget, deficit, and overall debt structure continue to expand." Moving forward, whether the 10-year Treasury yield can maintain its position above 5% will be a critical test of whether the economy and stock market can support higher interest rate levels.

  • Burry, Prototype of 'The Big Short': AI Leaders' Call to Slow Development is 'Selfish' and Humans Need Not Fear

    On September 14, Business Insider reported that Michael Burry, the investor who inspired 'The Big Short', stated in a post on X platform on Sunday night that the calls from executives at AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic to slow down AI development are 'selfish'. Burry outlined four reasons: first, large language models are not AI and will not become AGI, so there is nothing to slow down; second, slowing down benefits incumbents and hinders smaller competitors; third, promoting AI as an extinction-level threat fuels the 'hype and boasting' that supports IPOs; fourth, the intention to slow down provides cover for 'truly uncontrollable growth slowdowns'. Burry further stated in his Substack that the support from senior executives at Anthropic and OpenAI for slowing down is 'to enhance their perceived power before an IPO', and claimed that models like Claude and ChatGPT do not achieve true reasoning capabilities. Previously, AI leaders such as Sam Altman and Dario Amodei have called for a slowdown, with Musk also expressing support.
