South African scholar: US tariff policy is "self-destructive" and "cutting off its own retreat"

according to data from Jinshi, experts at home and abroad in the United States have been continuously issuing warnings recently, saying that the so-called "equal tariff" policy will severely damage its own economy. South African scholar Tan Zheri also expressed a similar view. He believes that the US tariff policy first hits the United States itself. To some extent, the United States is "losing face" and "cutting off its own path". The United States has put itself in a very passive situation, with fewer countries willing to trade with it. Global trade is shifting from the traditional Western center to other emerging centers, and many countries are beginning to reduce their reliance on the US dollar. Taking the African Free Trade Area as an example, I believe that African countries now have the momentum to accelerate the integration policy. In addition, regions such as Southeast Asia will also accelerate economic integration and maintain their internal diversity.

  • Hyperliquid Policy Center Urges US SEC and CFTC to Adopt Unified Perpetual Contract Framework

    On August 25, the Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) submitted comments to the US SEC and CFTC, stating that the two agencies have been striving to find answers regarding the classification of perpetual contracts over the past year. HPC believes that perpetual contracts for stocks, which possess traditional features of futures contracts, can be classified as securities futures. HPC urges the US SEC and CFTC to establish a unified classification system for perpetual contracts, based on the characteristics of each contract and its trading methods, grouping similar products together regardless of whether they reference Bitcoin, crude oil, or individual securities. HPC calls for the US SEC and CFTC to take the following four actions: 1. Confirm that the definition of securities futures includes the established features of futures contracts, allowing cash-settled stock perpetual contracts with these features to be listed as securities futures. 2. Retain the flexibility that trading venues currently have in making product listing decisions. 3. Maintain consistency in classification between the two agencies so that perpetual contracts, regardless of the underlying asset, receive the same threshold classification. 4. Modernize the securities futures framework to revitalize the category and adapt to new product structures.
