Reuters Image Acquire Licensing RightsAnalysts at Morgan Stanley reckon the term premium and debt sustainability worries could prompt a rethink of the bill-coupon supply balance.

The FTC proposed a rule on Wednesday that would ban all hidden and misleading fees. Businesses who use hidden fees might have to give consumers refunds, per the rule. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe Biden administration has been trying to crack down on the hidden fees that pop up when you try to book a plane or a concert ticket or even just order food — and now wants to outright ban them. Those junk fees "plague" Americans across all sorts of transactions. The CFPB's Wednesday guidance clarified that provision to ensure every American knows they do not need to pay junk fees to get basic information from their bank.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — A poker player who said he had terminal cancer and accepted thousands of dollars in donations so he could play in a World Series of Poker tournament in Las Vegas now admits it was all a lie. Rob Mercer told the Las Vegas Review-Journal he made up a stage 4 colon cancer diagnosis for his GoFundMe page in June, the newspaper reported Wednesday. If I would have done that from Day One, who knows what would have happened," Mercer told the newspaper. However, the 37-year-old says he won't be refunding anyone because he believes he has undiagnosed breast cancer.

☆ The lawsuits to block student-loan forgiveness keep coming — and the latest would keep borrowers who 'have earned the forgiveness' in debt, Biden's Education Department says
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-07 | by ( Ayelet Sheffey | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Conservative groups filed a lawsuit last week to block Biden's latest student-debt relief effort. The relief would discharge loans for over 800,000 borrowers on income-driven repayment plans. But there are similarities in the arguments from the October lawsuit, and the most recent one challenging the income-driven repayment relief. "Unlawful cancellation of student-loan debt reduces the amount of a borrower's PSLF-cancellable debt and thus reduces the amount by which PSLF benefits qualified employment," it said. It's unclear how this lawsuit will impact debt discharges, but the administration has made no indication yet that the process will be halted.

European shares (.STOXX) slipped 0.6%, bruised by disappointing earnings reports and elevated U.S. bond yields, on course for their third straight day of losses. Sterling extended losses after the BoE decision, falling as much as 0.7% to its lowest since June 30. The BoE decision was closely watched for clues on how central banks globally will balance taming inflation and maintaining growth. U.S. 10-year yields hit a new nine-month peak of 4.17%, while 30-year yields rose to a fresh nine-month top. In Asia, MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan (.MIAPJ0000PUS) fell 0.4%, extending losses after a drop of 2.3% a day earlier.

European shares (.STOXX) slipped 1.1% after falling on Wednesday to two-week lows as rating agency Fitch cut the U.S. government's credit rating. UK shares (.FTSE) fell 1.3%, with the Bank of England (BoE) expected to raise interest rates later in the day. Pressuring stocks were a climb in long-term U.S. Treasury yields after stronger-than-expected private employment data and the announced refunding of the U.S. government's maturing debt. U.S. 10-year yields hit a new nine-month peak of 4.17%, while 30-year yields rose to a fresh nine-month top. The risk, investors said, was that a repeat of June's surprise half-point increase could fuel bets that major central banks are not done tightening yet.

☆ Auction sizes set to increase at US Treasury refunding

The Treasury earlier this month posted a $228 billion budget deficit for June, up 156% from a year earlier. "They have to grow coupon auction sizes - not just at the August refunding, not just at the November refunding, but also at the February refunding as well, because they are ultimately trying to balance this supply picture between bills vs coupons and this growing financing need," Swiber said. The Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee (TBAC) recommends that bills make up 15-20% of the total marketable debt. The Treasury will release its quarterly borrowing requirement Monday afternoon, and its refunding news comes Wednesday at 0830 ET/1230 GMT. The Treasury surveyed dealers about their opinion on how some details of the program should work ahead of the August refunding.

July 14 (Reuters) - The U.S. Treasury Department is asking primary dealers their views on what specific bonds it should issue more of when it needs to raise more funds through the bond market, and for details around how a likely bond repurchase program would work. The Treasury noted that it may need to “modestly” increase the size of some of its coupon-bearing debt auctions as soon as August and asked banks which maturities they expect to see increased, and how size increases should be managed across the Treasury curve. It also queried dealers on whether it should increase sales of floating-rate notes and/or Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) as part of this process. The Treasury also asked banks their opinions on details around a bond repurchase program that it has previously indicated is likely to begin in 2024. The questions are being posed as part of its regular survey of dealers before each of its quarterly refunding announcements.

☆ Are you owed a slice of the $100 million fine Bank of America has to pay?
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-14 | by ( Elisabeth Buchwald | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +3 min

New York CNN —Bank of America was fined $250 million this week by US federal regulators for allegedly harming customers by double-dipping on fees, withholding credit card rewards and opening fake accounts. Of those fines, $100 million is set to go directly to consumers who were impacted by the bank’s alleged wrongdoing. People are generally bad at keeping or knowing how to access relatively recent bank records, said Harvey Rosenfield, founder of Consumer Watchdog, a nonprofit consumer advocacy group. It’s unlikely the average customer saved copies of their bank records or credit reports for over a decade, he said. As part of the agreement Bank of America settled with the CFPB, it is also required to identify consumers who were harmed.

According to data from the U.S. Department of Transportation, around 20 percent of flights were delayed last year. President Biden and the transportation secretary, Pete Buttigieg, announced a proposed new rule on Monday to compensate passengers affected by carrier-caused slowdowns. Under the proposal, airlines would be required to cover certain expenses for passengers as well as pay them for the inconvenience of flight delays and cancellations. “I know how frustrated many of you are with the service you get from your U.S. airlines,” Mr. Biden said during the announcement at the White House. Additionally, inconvenienced fliers would be entitled to a payment in the form of cash, miles or travel vouchers.

WASHINGTON, May 3 (Reuters) - The U.S. Treasury's estimate that it could run short of cash to satisfy all U.S. payment obligations as early as June 1 is its "best estimate" based on recent tax receipts, Treasury Assistant Secretary for Financial Markets Joshua Frost said on Wednesday. He told a news conference after Treasury's quarterly refunding announcement: "Receipts and outlays are just inherently variable, and the actual date will depend on realized receipts and outlays, and the date on which we have exhausted our resources could be a number of weeks later than those estimates."

The Securities and Exchange Board of India's rules say that only advisers registered with it can offer investment advice. Companies potentially facing enforcement action are digital investment platforms which offer financial products and investment advice without appropriate regulatory licences, the sources said. "This is a part of series of enforcement actions that the regulator is taking to tackle unsolicited investment advice being peddled on social media," said the second source cited above. The regulator will consult the market participants on ways to regulate social media financial influencers more broadly. These influencers could be required to make disclosures and disclaimers on their social media platforms before they offer any public advice.

Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., center, her husband Paul, and Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, are seen in the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, November 16, 2022. Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., is calling on the Federal Election Commission to require campaigns to send illegal campaign contributions to the U.S. Treasury instead of refunding the money to the original donor. Cortez Masto's call for the new FEC rule comes after numerous foreign donors and companies have been caught making illegal campaign donations. Still, as Cortez Masto points out, the fine could have limited impact on Zekelman as there is expected to be a full refund of the illegal contribution. Though Cortez Masto does not mention cryptocurrency exchange FTX or its co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried in her letter, his contributions to campaigns could come under the same scrutiny by the FEC if it enacted such a rule.

A Chinese dealership briefly listed a Porsche Panamera for a mere $18,000. A Panamera costs at least $92,000 in the US, and has a starting price of $148,000 in China.

That's roughly one-eighth of the 998,000 yuan, or $148,000 dollars, the starting price listed on Porsche's China website.

It looks less like fighting the Fed, than a mild disagreement. Powell didn't endorse that market view - which now has just one more quarter point rise to a terminal rate under 4.9% by May and 40 basis points of cuts from there by December. But he seemed ambivalent about investors' more optimistic take on disinflation and indicated the central bank was increasingly keeping its options open about a 'couple of hikes'. Meta's stock boomed as its earnings update showed stricter cost controls and a new $40 billion share buyback. With the risk around the BoE's split monetary policy council for a smaller quarter point move, it was the euro that looks set to emerge the winner of the three big central bank events.

☆ Fewer Treasury bills and liquidity questions – what to expect from the U.S. refunding
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-26 | by ( Karen Brettell | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +4 min

Jan 26 (Reuters) - The U.S. Treasury Department next week is likely to announce that it will offer fewer Treasury bills in the second quarter, after hitting its statutory borrowing limit. Next week, the Treasury is likely to say that it will reduce its issuance of Treasury bills, debt that matures in one year or less, and run down its cash balance to buy more time. That is because the U.S. government wants to increase bills as a percentage of overall debt to meet its long-term goals. BofA’s Swiber said that Treasury buybacks, which the Treasury queried dealers about in a previous survey, are a better solution to boost liquidity during times of market stress. These “allow Treasury to more directly manage Treasury liquidity, to more directly manage the outstanding supply of securities and they can effectively buy back things that are cheap on the curve and help support liquidity in the more liquid parts of the curve as well,” she said.
