BlockBeats News, February 12 — Krishna Guha of Evercore ISI stated that Kevin Warsh’s tough stance on inflation may be exaggerated. Although his nomination initially pushed up yields and lowered gold prices, Warsh should be viewed more as a pragmatic conservative who can distinguish between supply-driven inflation and demand-driven inflation — this could make the Fed policies under his leadership more flexible.
Warsh previously pointed out that advancements in artificial intelligence and productivity are positive supply shocks that could ease the pressure of tightening policies. He also supports the Fed reducing its balance sheet but is unlikely to pursue aggressive tightening policies that could disrupt markets. In a politically tense environment, the consensus-driven policies of the Fed are expected to continue, despite facing unusual pressures.

What signals did the US SEC send behind the new 2% discount regulation for stablecoins?
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued guidance on payment stablecoins on February 19, allowing broker-dealers to treat stablecoins with a 2% discount when calculating net capital, thereby giving them a legitimate status in capital calculations. This adjustment helps to integrate stablecoins into the mainstream financial system and promotes digital asset trading and services. Peirce's statement and the GENIUS Act could potentially change the market landscape, although federal and state frictions still exist. Nonetheless, this move paves the way for regulatory integration of stablecoins.

Rising oil prices suppress expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts, strengthening the dollar
ChainCatcher reports that, according to Gate market data, the dollar has strengthened against all major currencies due to rising oil prices prompting swap traders to reduce their bets on the Fed cutting interest rates this year. The market currently expects about 59 basis points of rate cuts from the Federal Reserve, down from 61 basis points last Friday. Gareth Berry, a strategist at Sydney's Macquarie Group, said this could be an early signal that the market believes sustained oil price increases will lead to higher inflation pressures in the US, thereby reducing the Fed's willingness to cut rates. Deteriorating risk sentiment has also contributed to the dollar's rise, with S&P 500 futures down 1.5%.
