Global markets are far broader than Latvia alone, Kremlin says on Riga’s grain decision
  • Latvia ‘inspired’ by transatlantic tariff methods, Kremlin says

    Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said trade wars are continuing and that Latvia appears to be “inspired” by transatlantic approaches to tariffs as Riga considers imposing a 300% duty on grain shipments from Russia. An expert said ending transit along the route would not cause a critical global shortage but would raise prices by increasing risks and complicating logistics, benefiting exporters from the EU, US, Argentina and Australia.

Record China-US bond yield gap unlikely to trigger capital flight: Marsh Investment

Investment executives at Marsh Investment say the record widening gap between Chinese and US government bond yields is unlikely to cause catastrophic capital flight from China. The spread between 10-year benchmark yields reached 3.17 percentage points this week, which they attributed to US fiscal pressures and global macro trends rather than a structural retreat from Chinese assets.

SEC gives Bitcoin-heavy trusts a new 15% window beyond listing rules

The SEC approved a Nasdaq Texas rule allowing qualifying commodity-linked trusts to place up to 15% of their exposure in specified digital commodities or securities that fail existing eligibility tests, while permitting active management. At least 85% must remain in cash, commodities or other qualifying assets, and sponsors must check compliance daily. The change streamlines listings but does not approve any particular fund.

Paolo Ardoino says 650 million people decentralized US debt, but Tether still controls the T-bills

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said 650 million users holding USDT had created the “decentralized ownership of US debt.” Tether’s own documents, however, say holders own transferable tokens and certain contractual redemption rights, while Tether International owns and manages the reserves. Holders are not entitled to Treasury investment gains, and the 650 million figure lacks an independently published methodology.
