Fedul desfășoară în principal politica monetară prin modificarea țintei pentru rata dobânzii la fondurile federale. Pentru a încuraja ratele de dobândă pe termen scurt să se apropie de intervalul țintă, Fedul utilizează diverse instrumente de politică, inclusiv: dobânda pe soldurile rezervate și rata facilității de repurchase inversă pe o noapte

Prețurile aurului sunt influențate de ofertă și cerere, cu o producție excesivă care duce la scăderi ale prețurilor. Speculațiile și schimbările de atitudine ale investitorilor pot cauza fluctuații rapide ale prețurilor la aur. Un dolar puternic și creșterea ratelor dobânzilor pot afecta negativ prețurile aurului.

Cele mai bogate 10% dintre gospodăriile americane dețin majoritatea absolută, aproximativ 90% sau mai mult, a pieței bursiere a SUA, cu cei mai bogați 1% deținând peste jumătate din toate acțiunile, potrivit datelor Federației Reservelor, evidențiind o concentrare extremă a bogăției. Aceasta înseamnă că cei mai mulți americani, în special cei din ultimii 90%, au un interes foarte mic în piață.

The statement regarding JPMorgan expecting a Federal Reserve rate hike in 2027 is a hypothetical scenario and does not reflect an official position of the firm, which typically maintains a more neutral outlook in its formal communications. 

Hypothetically, such an expectation—pushing back the timeframe for rate cuts and introducing a potential hike far in the future—would generally be interpreted as follows:

Bearish for Risk Assets: A higher-for-longer interest rate environment increases borrowing costs, which can reduce corporate profits and make equities (stocks) less attractive compared to fixed-income investments.

Bullish for Cash & Safe Havens: Higher interest rates increase the returns on cash, money market funds, and safe haven assets like U.S. Treasuries, making them more appealing to investors seeking income and stability. 

For official information regarding the Federal Reserve's monetary policy outlook and interest rate expectations, refer to the official Federal Reserve website. For insights into JPMorgan's market analysis, clients can consult their official research publications or financial advisors.

Independența Fed-ului în discuție în timp ce DoJ-ul lui Trump vizează Powell

Temerile că Banca Centrală a SUA va pierde independența cresc după ce Departamentul de Justiție al SUA a emis o cerere de producere a documentelor către banca centrală în vineri.

Powell a emis un comunicat în care afirmă că politica monetară trebuie să fie stabilită fără „intimidare” politică; Trump a negat orice cunoaștere a cererilor de producere.

Piața reacționează negativ la știre în tranzacțiile de luni, cu dolarul american, de obicei un refugiu în perioadele de incertitudine, scăzând față de livrul britanic și euro, iar prețurile aurului și argintului crescând.

Îndoielile privind independența viitoare a celei mai importante bănci centrale din lume au crescut de duminică, când președintele Fed a anunțat că Departamentul de Justiție al SUA a emis cereri de producere împotriva Fed-ului și a amenințat cu o investigație penală.

Amenințarea, care se concentrează asupra declarațiilor pe care Powell le-a făcut în fața Congresului atunci când a fost întrebat despre costurile excesive pentru renoirea clădirii Fed-ului, marchează o escaladare majoră a conflictului de lungă durată dintre președinte și președintele SUA, Donald Trump.

Pentru Powell, această mișcare recentă semnifică o încercare de a forța o politică monetară care să fie în interesul președintelui. Pentru participanții la piață, aceasta aduce riscuri de inflație.

Financials fall as Trump's credit card rate cap plan rattles investors

Traders work on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, U.S., December 10, 2025. REUTERS/Brendan McDermid/File Photo Purchase Licensing Rights, opens new tab

Jan 12 (Reuters) - U.S. financial stocks and UK-listed lenders fell on Monday and weighed on global indexes as President Donald Trump's call for a one-year cap on credit card interest rates threatened a key revenue stream for the industry.

The move amplified concerns over the sector with investors already grappling with interest rate uncertainty and will likely dull the potential benefit from a shift toward value stocks.

More than 60 economists — including high-profile figures like French economist Thomas Piketty and others from major European universities — have signed an open letter to members of the European Parliament (MEPs) urging them to back the proposed digital euro.
• They argue that a strong public digital euro is not an optional “nice-to-have”, but rather essential to protect European monetary sovereignty, resilience and stability in a world where digital payments are increasingly dominated by non-EU players.
• The letter warns that without a digital euro, the eurozone risks becoming more dependent on US-based payment systems like Visa, Mastercard and PayPal, exposing Europe to geopolitical and commercial leverage beyond its control.

• The European Parliament is expected to vote on legislative approval for the digital euro project later this year, a crucial step before it can go forward.
• The European Council has already backed the European Central Bank’s proposal to have a digital euro operational by around 2029.
• The economists stress that Europe’s reliance on foreign payment systems in many euro-area countries — where some have no domestic digital equivalent — underscores the need for a public digital currency.

The UK's communications regulator, Ofcom, has launched a formal investigation into the social media platform X for potential breaches of the Online Safety Act, not a general "cybersecurity law". The investigation specifically concerns the platform's handling of explicit and non-consensual sexual imagery generated by its AI chatbot, Grok. 

Regulator: Ofcom, the UK's independent communications regulator, which is responsible for enforcing the Online Safety Act.

Legislation: The UK Online Safety Act requires social media platforms to take steps to protect users from illegal content, including the creation or sharing of non-consensual intimate images, which covers AI-generated deepfakes.

Reason for Probe: The investigation was initiated following reports that X's integrated AI chatbot, Grok (owned by Elon Musk's xAI company), was used to generate and disseminate sexually explicit images of individuals, including women and potentially minors, without their consent.

Ofcom's Actions: The regulator made "urgent contact" with X and xAI to understand what measures were in place to comply with legal duties to protect UK users and has now opened a formal investigation to determine if a breach has occurred.

Potential Penalties: If X is found to be in breach of the Online Safety Act, Ofcom has powers that range from "heavy, heavy fines" (up to 10% of global annual turnover) to potentially banning the platform in the UK.

Declarația "99% vor fi șterse în 2026" este o afirmație provocatoare folosită în cercurile financiare și tehnologice, în principal referindu-se la rata așteptată de eșec a start-up-urilor de inteligență artificială sau la posibile schimbări majore în sistemul financiar global. Nu este o profeție general acceptată, ci mai degrabă o predicție a experților în anumite piețe volatile.

În Contextul Start-up-urilor de Inteligență Artificială

Utilizarea cea mai frecventă a acestei fraze prevede o corecție a pieței în industria inteligenței artificiale.

Aplicații "Wrapper": Predicția se adresează start-up-urilor care construiesc interfețe simple pentru utilizatori, sau "wrapper-uri", în jurul modelelor de bază de inteligență artificială (cum ar fi cele din OpenAI, Google sau Anthropic) fără tehnologie unică sau date proprietare.

Competiție: Companiile mari de tehnologie își integrează rapid funcții de inteligență artificială în ecosistemele lor existente, făcând dificil pentru produsele mici și independente de inteligență artificială să concureze și să supraviețuiască.

Corecție a Pieței: Experti, inclusiv unii legați de Y Combinator (YC), sugerează că actualul "bătăi de cap AI" este similar cu burbulă dot-com, iar o scăpare semnificativă este inevitabilă până în 2026. Supraviețuitorii vor fi aceia care rezolvă probleme specifice și profunde în anumite domenii și construiesc un "zid" sau un model de afaceri defensibil.

CryptoQuant Founder Criticizes X for Restricting Crypto Content Instead of Improving Bot Detection

Today's crypto news highlights a strong criticism from Ki Young Ju, founder of CryptoQuant, directed at X for restricting crypto-related content while failing to address bot spam. Data reveals more than 7.7 million daily posts containing the keyword "crypto," as Ki Young Ju argues that X is unable to distinguish real users from bots. X's product lead, Nikita Bier, attributed the reduced visibility to low-value posts such as repeated "gm" messages. Ki Young Ju called X's strategy of banning crypto content instead of improving bot detection "absurd."

Odaily Planet News: Ki Young Ju, founder of CryptoQuant, stated that the X platform is suppressing the influence of posts related to cryptocurrencies, yet has failed to curb the surge in automated spam, effectively punishing legitimate users. Data shows a surge in automated activities related to the keyword "crypto," generating over 7.7 million posts in a single day. Ki Young Ju pointed out that X is unable to distinguish between automated accounts and real user accounts, and its paid verification system has become a mass messaging tool for bots.

CPI Drops Below 2% as Fed Faces Rate-Cut Pressure Amid Cracking Labor Market

U.S. inflation falls to 1.88% while job growth slows sharply, forcing the Fed Reserve toward rate cuts and renewed liquidity injections.

Liquidity expectations rise as markets price in policy reversal

A sharp drop in inflation has reignited debate over the Federal Reserve’s policy stance after CPI reportedly declined to 1.88% year over year. This reading places inflation well below the Fed’s long-standing 2% target and strengthens the argument that price pressures have effectively collapsed. Market participants now view inflation as no longer the primary threat to economic stability.

Labor Market Shows Clear Signs of Strain

At the same time, the U.S. labor market has begun to show visible cracks. December payroll growth came in far below expectations, adding only around 50,000 jobs and marking one of the weakest monthly readings in recent years. Slowing hiring momentum signals that higher interest rates have begun to meaningfully restrain business activity and consumer demand.

Fed’s Soft Landing Narrative Loses Credibility

For months, the Federal Reserve maintained that it could engineer a soft landing by cooling inflation without damaging employment. Recent data has undermined that thesis. Falling inflation paired with weakening job creation suggests that restrictive monetary policy has overshot its target. The economy now appears to face deceleration rather than controlled moderation.

Rate Cuts Shift From Speculation to Expectation

As inflation fades and labor conditions soften, the Fed’s room to maintain elevated interest rates narrows rapidly. Markets increasingly price in imminent rate cuts as policymakers confront the risk of overtightening. With inflation no longer justifying restrictive policy, the Fed faces pressure to act decisively to prevent deeper economic contraction.
