Sen. Bessent Urges Passage of Crypto Clarity Act This Spring

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged Congress to pass the Clarity Act, a bipartisan proposal to establish federal rules for digital assets, by spring 2026 to be signed into law. He said the legislation would provide stability amid recent crypto volatility, despite industry opposition. Passage is at risk if the House shifts to Democratic control in November 2026.

30s Retirement Savings: Average 401(k) vs Individual Progress

Your 30s are a critical decade for retirement readiness. As of 2025, the average 401(k) balance for individuals in their 30s is $74,000$103,000, while the median is $22,000$40,000, highlighting the importance of early compounding. Missing this window means harder work in later years to catch up.
Strategies include automating savings, pocketing raises (e.g., directing 50% of raises to savings), and using low-cost taxable brokerage accounts for ETFs. Financial planners recommend aiming for 15%+ savings and increasing 401(k) contributions by 2%3% with raises to leverage tax-deferred growth and build momentum by the 40s.

Kalshi Forms Game Point Capital Hedge Deal Amid Intensifying State Regulatory Battles

Kalshi (NASDAQ: KALSHI) announced a partnership with sports insurance broker Game Point Capital to hedge performance bonuses for professional sports teams, leveraging its platform for near-half the pricing of traditional reinsurers. Last week, Game Point executed two NBA hedges: a playoff berth bonus at 6% versus 1213% OTC, and a second-round advance at 2% versus 78% OTC.
Sports markets, representing over 80% of Kalshi’s business, are under intense scrutiny as regulators in Massachusetts, Nevada, and Connecticut seek temporary bans, citing unlicensed sports betting under state law. Kalshi and rival Polymarket are litigating to block the bans, with the CFTC supporting the cause and SEC Chairman Paul Atkins signaling potential SEC oversight over securities aspects.
Despite the turmoil, institutional funding remains strong, with Jump Trading securing small equity stakes in both Kalshi and Polymarket for market-making liquidity. The sector’s trading volume leapt to $63.5 billion in 2025 from $15.8 billion in 2024, per CertiK, amid growing Web3 integration and integrity risks.

小米YU7 1月中国销量翻倍登顶,几乎为Model Y两倍 (01810.HK)

In January 2026, the iQOO YU7 electric SUV led China’s monthly sales with about 38,000 units, roughly twice the 17,000 units of the Tesla Model Y, according to data from the China Automobile Manufacturers Association and Autohome. Model Y slipped to 20th place in January and fell from first to seventh in the new energy segment.
Launched in summer 2025, YU7 entered the market at about CNY 10,000 less than the Model Y, with a competitive range and a lower price point. Excluding gasoline vehicles, Tesla ranked fifth in China in 2025, while Xiaomi ranked 10th. BYD led the year with over 3 million units, followed by吉利 with about 2.6 million.
Notably, YU7 outperformed in a cooling phase for China’s EVs. Following safety reviews of its driving-assistance and hidden-door handles, the firm added external indicators to comply with Beijing’s ban on the latter. Xiaomi also plans to enter Europe in 2027.

New World Order: Shift from US to Global and International Assets (USMBC, EUROFX, MSCI ACWI)

U.S. Bank strategist Michael Hartnett highlights a discernible reallocation of capital away from U.S. dollars and stocks toward international assets, signaling the decline of the “American Exception” and the rise of a “global realignment.”
Since late 2024, EPFR Global data shows $104B flowing into stock funds in Europe, Japan, and other developed markets versus $25B in U.S. funds. Following Trump-era policy shifts and trade measures in April 2024, market confidence in U.S. economic and financial primacy has waned, with the dollar index down about 10% since late 2024 and the S&P 500 outperforming international peers.
Since late 2024, the S&P 500 gained 15%, while the MSCI ACWI (excluding U.S.) rose 39%, validating the shift. Hartnett favors emerging market producers of commodities and sees significant upside in China and India as AI demand growth and current market allocation remain underserved.

The White House is reviewing exemptions and scaling back broad levies, signaling a potential shift from expanding to targeted duties amid mid-term election-year pressure to curb inflation. The policy shift could moderate input costs for industries reliant on aluminum, zinc, nickel, and lead.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) advises selling two-year U.S. Treasuries in a tactical trade, citing a resilient economic outlook that makes aggressive Fed rate cuts unlikely. The median forecast for core CPI in January is 2.5%, with JPM expecting a “firm” 0.39% rise. Traders price a 0.25% cut in July and a potential cut by year-end. The two-year yield held near 3.47% Friday as the CPI report approaches, amid volatility this week. JPM strategists note heightened inflation risk could push the 10-year yield toward 5% quickly, while others, like Greenlight Capital’s David Einhorn, anticipate a more aggressive Fed easing.

Jan CPI Report (02-16) to Test Whether Inflation Trend Was a Mirage

January Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, released Friday, February 16, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. ET, will test whether recent inflation trends were a mirage. The report, delayed by a government shutdown, comes after core CPI fell to 2.7% in December from a 2025 high of 3.0%.
Economists expect headline and core CPI to rise in January, with the Dow Jones survey forecasting an annual rate of 2.5% and a 0.3% month-over-month increase. Wells Fargo anticipates core inflation to climb 0.33% MoM, higher than its 12-month average of 0.22%, citing delayed pass-through of tariff costs and start-of-year price resets.
The January jobs report, revised down to 181,000 from 584,000, adds pressure to the Federal Reserve’s decision-making as it balances price stability and employment. Most analysts project no interest-rate cuts until late summer at the earliest.
