NEW YORK/WASHINGTON, May 15 (Reuters) - As talks over raising the U.S. government's $31.4 trillion debt ceiling intensify, Wall Street banks and asset managers have begun preparing for fallout from a potential default. Citigroup (C.N) CEO Jane Fraser said this debate on the debt ceiling is "more worrying" than previous ones. U.S. government bonds underpin the global financial system so it is difficult to fully gauge the damage a default would create, but executives expect massive volatility across equity, debt and other markets. Banks, brokers and trading platforms are prepping for disruption to the Treasury market, as well as broader volatility. Bond trading platform Tradeweb said it was in discussions with clients, industry groups, and other market participants about contingency plans.

I asked her how confident she was in the contingency plan for a default that’s been developed by the Treasury Market Practices Group (more on that later).

Journal Editorial Report: Paul Gigot interviews former Trump White House economist Kevin Hassett. Images: AP/Zuma Press Composite: Mark KellyFrom Wall Street to Silicon Valley, from the Permian Basin to the Chicago Loop, an iron net of regulation has descended across the American economy. Churchill’s metaphor conveys the magnitude of the onslaught and the peril it poses to the American economy and our freedom. We face not an errant regulator or an officious bureaucrat, but a sea change in the economy’s regulatory ecosystem. In the short term, President Biden’s regulatory tsunami will fuel inflation and make a recession more likely.

"I had stopped engaging some of the most — things that I love in my life," Fetterman told CBS News. "The whole thing about depression is that objectively, you may have won, but depression can absolutely convince you that you actually lost. Fetterman revealed that between the November 2022 election and his swearing-in ceremony in January 2023, his depression began to accelerate. Last year's Pennsylvania Senate election, which was an open seat contest as a result of then-Republican Sen. Pat Toomey's impending retirement, was seen as one of most competitive races in the country. But Fetterman won the race 51%-46%, picking up a critical seat for Democrats and affording the party an expanded 51-49 majority in the upper chamber.
Senator John Fetterman has been discharged from hospital where he was treated for weeks for depression, his office said on Friday, adding he will return to the Senate mid-April. Fetterman's depression is now in remission, his office said in a statement, citing a doctor. Fetterman had checked into a Washington-area hospital for treatment for clinical depression in mid-February. Fetterman, who suffered a stroke last May and later acknowledged he had "almost died," has faced challenges adjusting to life in the Senate during his recovery. During the course of Fetterman's depression treatment, his speech abilities also improved as he worked with speech-language specialists, his office said on Friday.
Sen. John Fetterman has been hospitalized for clinical depression since February 15. Casey is coordinating with Fetterman staff on constituent services issues and legislative priorities, according to recent reports, but doesn't call Fetterman directly so as not to disturb his ongoing recovery. Some of the others working hard to meet that internal standard include legislative assistant Madeleine Marr, a former aide to Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire. Conservative commentator Stephen L. Miller has been more blunt, accusing Fetterman's staff of unduly wielding power in his absence. "John Fetterman's chief of staff is not an elected senator," Miller wrote in an op-ed run by the Delaware Valley Journal.

Stablecoins have been touted as one of the biggest beneficiaries of the end of Silvergate and Signature . The problem is, though, that stablecoin issuers still need access to a crypto bank, so the risk is now further concentrated."

Every fish gets its turn in the barrel. Senate Republicans got their turn in 2022, when 21 of their seats were up, compared with 14 Democratic seats. No Democratic seat was in a state Donald Trump carried in 2020, while two GOP seats were in states Joe Biden won—Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Republicans lost the Pennsylvania seat, left open by the retirement of Sen. Pat Toomey , and couldn’t offset that with a pickup in Arizona, Georgia or Nevada. That gave Democrats control of the Senate, 51-49.
Feb 22 (Reuters) - Apollo Global Management Inc (APO.N) said on Wednesday former U.S. Senator Patrick Toomey has been appointed to its board, effective March 15. In a political career spanning decades, Toomey represented Pennsylvania in the Senate from 2011 to 2023, serving on the Senate banking, housing, and urban affairs, budget, and finance committees. Toomey, a member of the Republican Party, previously served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1999 to 2005, where he was a member of the house budget committee. Earlier in February, New York-based Apollo said its fourth-quarter adjusted net income rose 77% owing to strong earnings from its retirement services business, even as gains were partly offset by a steep decline in its PE portfolio.
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) departs a closed-door, classified briefing for Senators at the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday, Feb. 14, 2023 in Washington, DC. Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., checked himself into a hospital to "receive treatment for clinical depression," his chief of staff said Thursday. "While John has experienced depression off and on throughout his life, it only became severe in recent weeks," the statement said. "Yesterday, Dr. Monahan recommended inpatient care at Walter Reed. "After examining John, the doctors at Walter Reed told us that John is getting the care he needs, and will soon be back to himself," Jentleson said.
The association also is considering changes to its professional conduct rules around the vetting of clients. The ABA’s rules for professional conduct are typically used as a basis for the rules enforced by state courts, which serve as primary regulators of the legal trade. Under current rules, lawyers have an ethical obligation to keep confidential all information relating to the representation of their clients. Requiring lawyers to report suspicious transactions by their clients also could undermine attorney-client privilege, the group argued in their resolution. Those committees are expected to file a resolution at the annual meeting of the ABA’s policy arm later this year.

If the first Cold War was defined by the development of nuclear weapons, this Tech Cold War is defined by the computer chip. The massive Intel plant in Ohio is a key part of the race with China for the future of tech. Even before the Intel plant, the Columbus area was well acquainted with these sorts of trade-offs. But, the Ohio State study found, Columbus' residential tax-abatement programs did little to meaningfully address the housing problem, while draining the city's funds. Federal, state, and local subsidies add up to billions of dollars that Intel is saving on its new Ohio semiconductor factory.
New York CNN —The largest six banks in the United States have been given until July to show the Federal Reserve what effects disastrous climate change scenarios could have on their bottom lines. The Federal Reserve first announced the pilot program in September, noting that Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo would participate. In its announcement the Federal Reserve stressed that the exercise “is exploratory in nature and does not have capital consequences.” It also said that it would not publish individual banks’ results. San Francisco Federal Reserve President Mary Daly told CNN in October Thursday that this was a learning and exploratory exercise for the Federal Reserve. The other side: Critics of the pilot program have argued that the Federal Reserve was overstepping its boundaries and that they might soon begin to enforce financial penalties.
The 2024 Senate elections — which will run concurrent with the presidential race — are approaching. In 2024, 34 senators will be up for reelection: 20 Democrats, 11 Republicans, and three Independents. But Sinema's election itself is another matter; she has not yet announced whether she will run for reelection in 2024. He has not yet decided if he will run in 2024, but Republicans have been eyeing his seat for years. But he has done it before, winning in 2018 despite Republicans going all-out to defeat him.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is one of the most powerful lawmakers in Washington, DC. He was elected to a Brooklyn- and Queens-anchored House seat in 1980 when he was just 29 years old. Schumer won his first Senate race in 1998 and became the leader of the Democratic caucus in 2017. He also served as chair of the Senate Democratic Policy Committee and vice chair of the Senate Democratic Caucus before succeeding Harry Reid of Nevada in 2017 as leader of the Senate Democratic Caucus. And last November, Democrats flipped the open US Senate seat in Pennsylvania being vacated by GOP Sen. Pat Toomey, securing a 51-49 majority headed into the new Congress.
