On October 13, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) stated in Chapter 3 of the October 2026 Global Financial Stability Report that as of July 31, the scale of tokenized real-world assets, excluding repurchase agreements and stablecoins, reached approximately $65.1 billion. This includes $30.4 billion in tokenized credit, $17.5 billion in money market funds, and $2.3 billion in tokenized equities. The report noted that automatic settlement, instant clearing, continuous trading, and programmable collateral could accelerate forced liquidations and amplify financial shocks during market stress. The cross-platform reuse of collateral may also increase leverage, allowing risks to transmit more quickly across different institutions and markets. The IMF identified four obstacles to the broader application of the tokenized market: legal certainty, regulatory clarity, blockchain network interoperability, and reliable settlement assets. It recommended adopting technology-neutral regulations, enhancing supervision, establishing circuit breakers, and preventing instability in automatic settlements.

Bank of America Warns Market Risk Aversion May Last Until Mid-November Amid Three Ongoing Risks
On October 23, Bank of America strategist Michael Hartnett stated in a recent client report that the current global market risk aversion may continue until mid-November. He emphasized a tactical caution towards risk assets until the uncertainties surrounding AI financing risks, pressure in the French bond market, and the U.S. midterm elections are alleviated. In terms of liquidity, although investors are shifting towards defensive positions, technology stocks remain crowded. EPFR Global data shows that technology stock funds recorded the largest inflow since July in the past week, while Bank of America's October fund manager survey indicates that global investors' allocation to technology stocks has reached its highest level since August 2020. Hartnett believes that if the credit spreads related to AI super cloud companies peak, it could signal an important improvement in risk appetite. He is also monitoring the yield on French 10-year government bonds and the France-Germany yield spread, as well as the policy uncertainties surrounding the U.S. midterm elections on November 3. Until these risks are re-priced, the market may maintain a defensive stance in the short term.
