The Federal Reserve assesses the impact of Trump's new administration on the economy and inflation, and the uncertainty of interest rate cuts increases

Well-known journalist Nick Timiros pointed out in the Wall Street Journal that the Federal Reserve is reassessing the potential impact of the new Trump administration on the US economy and inflation. According to people familiar with the matter, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell expressed dissatisfaction with the public statements of some officials, believing that they too directly linked the Fed's policies to Trump's policy changes. At present, the market generally expects that the Fed's future interest rate cuts will be slower and more cautious. Analysts point out that the prospect of the Fed's interest rate cut in 2025 is full of uncertainty, and investors need to deal with the economic turmoil that may be brought about by the Trump administration. According to CME data, in January next year, the probability of the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates unchanged is 87.2%, and the probability of a 25 basis point cut is 12.8%. By March next year, the probability of maintaining the current interest rate unchanged is 50.6%, the probability of a 25 basis point cut is 44.1%, and the probability of a 50 basis point cut is 5.4%.

The Securities Commission of Malaysia took action to rectify the situation: Bybit was ordered to cease operations due to unregistration

The Securities Commission of Malaysia has taken strict enforcement action against cryptocurrency trading platform Bybit and its CEO for operating a crypto asset trading business locally without proper registration. The regulator stated in a statement on Friday that Bybit must immediately cease operations of its website, mobile application and other digital platforms in Malaysia and require it to complete rectification within 14 working days from December 11. In addition, Bybit was also required to terminate all advertising activities targeting Malaysian investors and close the Telegram group that provides support to local users.

The regulator said the decision was based on concerns about the platform's compliance with local regulatory requirements and the protection of investor rights. Under Section 7(1) of the Capital Markets and Services Act 2007, it is an offence to operate a digital asset trading platform (DAX) without obtaining a registration as a Recognized Market Operator (RMO) of the Securities Commission. As early as July 2021, Bybit and its CEO were included in the Securities Commission Malaysia's investor warning list for similar violations.
