An update on President Donald Trump's threat to play an additional 100% tariffs on China -- and the potential for Congress to act on a resolution overturning Trump's emergency tariffs related to Canada and Brazil -- led Bloomberg Intelligence's Washington Policy Pulse on Oct. 22. We note that any resolution, to become law, would need Trump's signature. We also discussed the current policy state of play for the crypto industry, including the potential rulemakings and legislation set to impact firms like Coinbase, Robinhood, Circle and Bullish. Finally, we reviewed our note on SEC efforts to "Make IPOs Great Again" and how smaller firms could be the beneficiaries of such actions. The Bloomberg Intelligence Financial Policy weekly call is designed to provide investors an opportunity to learn about the most recent relevant policy research, information regarding forthcoming political catalysts and other on-goings within Washington D.C. The call is open to all and is held every Monday at 10:00 a.m. EST. You can register for the call here: https://bloomberg.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN__PqCkwY-S2m3hbQqvVC1_Q#/registration

President Donald Trump pressed world leaders gathered at a summit on Gaza’s future to ensure the US-led truce between Israel and Hamas turns into a lasting peace, hailing the agreement as a “new beginning” for the war-torn region. “Today, for the first time anyone can remember, we have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to put the old feuds and bitter hatreds behind us,” Trump said in the Egyptian resort town of Sharm El-Sheikh.” “Together we’re going to forge a magnificent, great and enduring peace.”  Trump’s whirlwind trip, which also included a stop in Israel, heightened optimism for ending the two-year-long war between Israel and Hamas.  “Together, we’ve achieved what everybody said was impossible. At long last we have peace in the Middle East,” Trump said. “Now the rebuilding begins.” Yet the nascent ceasefire remains fragile, with many key details left to be worked out. Trump said food and aid has begun to flow into Gaza, which has been devastated by the conflict. “Numerous countries of great wealth” have pledged reconstruction funds, Trump added, though he did not name them.  Bloomberg Washington Correspondents Joe Mathieu and Kailey Leinz deliver insight and analysis on the latest headlines from the White House and Capitol Hill, including conversations with influential lawmakers and key figures in politics and policy.

With President Donald Trump vowing to pay the military on Oct. 15, the lack of a pressure point to bring Congress together to resolve the US government shutdown led Bloomberg Intelligence's Washington Policy Pulse on Oct. 13. The next major catalyst, in our view, would be if Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits run out at the end of the month, potentially impacting grocers like Walmart, Kroger and Albertsons. We also discussed the latest in Trump's threat to place tariffs on China, as well as an update on deposit insurance legislation, which could increase costs for banks like JPMorgan and Bank of America. The Bloomberg Intelligence Financial Policy weekly call is designed to provide investors an opportunity to learn about the most recent relevant policy research, information regarding forthcoming political catalysts and other on-goings within Washington D.C.

With the US government still shut -- and a re-opening unlikely this week amid continued brinkmanship -- questions about the market, sector and economic effects will be at top of market participant minds. On October 6, analysts from Bloomberg Intelligence, Bloomberg Economics and BloombergNEF hosted a client call to discuss paths for Congress to reopen the government, the fate of Obamacare subsidies and the economic fallout should the shutdown persist. The Bloomberg Intelligence Financial Policy weekly call is designed to provide investors an opportunity to learn about the most recent relevant policy research, information regarding forthcoming political catalysts and other on-goings within Washington D.C.

Hamas agreed to release the last of the hostages from its 2023 attack on Israel but said the rest of a US peace plan would be subject to negotiation, a stance that offered uncertain hopes for an end to the conflict in Gaza. President Donald Trump responded favorably to the Hamas statement even though the group failed to address other key elements of his 20-point proposal that Israel has also demanded, including that it disarm. He called on Israel to stop its bombing campaign and said discussions were underway on “details to be worked out,” suggesting that he was willing to give Hamas some leeway. “I believe they are ready for a lasting PEACE,” Trump said of Hamas in a social media post. “Israel must immediately stop the bombing of Gaza, so that we can get the Hostages out safely and quickly!” In a subsequent video post, Trump thanked the Muslim-majority nations he credited with assisting in the negotiations and pledged that “everybody will be treated fairly” in ongoing talks. “This is a big day,” Trump said. “We’ll see how it all turns out — we have to get the final word down in concrete.” For instant reaction and analysis, Bloomberg Balance of Power host Joe Mathieu speaks with: - Rep. Gregory Meeks of New York - Bloomberg News State Department and Foreign Policy Reporter Eric Martin - Former Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman
