This follows a Wall Street Journal report that while such calls were not recorded on Warshs schedule, the two had spoken multiple times. The senators argued that withholding information could give the impression that the White House was controlling monetary policy. Last month, Warsh did not directly respond to Van Hollens questioning. The senators demanded that Warsh provide written confirmation of any contact with Trump since taking office, or amend his schedule to disclose such calls. White House National Economic Council Director Hassett downplayed these calls in early August, stating that Trump did not pressure Warsh on interest rate decisions; Trump himself stated that he had only had one brief conversation with Warsh. In contrast, former Federal Reserve Chairman Powell meticulously documented his conversations with Trump and disclosed several face-to-face meetings.On August 20th, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is pushing to end some of Canadas ban on the retail sale of U.S. alcohol, hoping to push for a finalized U.S.-Canada trade agreement. Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston stated that Carney, during a conference call with provincial premiers on Wednesday, urged them to reinstate the sale of U.S. wine and spirits in their local stores once the agreement is finalized. In Canada, provincial governments are responsible for setting rules for the sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages. Last year, in retaliation for tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, most Canadian provinces removed U.S. alcoholic products from their shelves, leading to a significant decline in export sales for U.S. wine and spirits producers. Currently, most provinces maintain their bans on the sale of U.S. alcoholic beverages, including Canadas three most populous provinces—Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia. It remains unclear whether the provincial premiers will agree to Carneys request. If they refuse, the preliminary U.S.-Canada trade agreement announced by Trump on Tuesday evening could be at risk. The White House considers ending these bans to be one of the core pillars of any U.S.-Canada trade agreement.According to Nikkei, Japans Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry will seek 7.7 trillion yen in its fiscal year 2027 budget.

Crypto Assets Shed $800 Billion in Market Value in A Month

According to statistics site CoinMarketCap, crypto assets have lost about $800 billion in market value in the last month, reaching a low of $1.4 trillion on Tuesday, as the end of free monetary policy dampens desire for risk assets.


Bitcoin, which accounts for roughly 40% of the cryptocurrency market, fell to a 10-month low on Tuesday before rebounding to $31,450, only six days after hitting $40,000. It was down more than 54% from its all-time high of $69,000 on November 10th.


Prices of digital assets have fallen, reflecting a drop in stocks on worries of aggressive interest rate rises throughout the world to combat decades-high inflation. The Nasdaq, which is heavily weighted in technology, was down 28% from its all-time high in November 2021.


According to CoinMarketCap, the total crypto market worth was $2.2 trillion on April 2, down from an all-time high of $2.9 trillion in early November.


"Bitcoin remains closely tied to larger economic circumstances, implying that the road ahead may regrettably be bumpy, at least for the time being," stated blockchain data firm Glassnode in a note.


Investors were also alarmed by signs of weakness in stablecoins, which are normally a safer crypto currency. TerraUSD, the fourth-largest stablecoin in the world, lost a third of its value on Tuesday after losing its dollar peg.


According to a study issued on Monday by digital asset management Coinshares, despite bitcoin's price drop, funds and products related to it saw inflows of $45 million last week as investors took advantage of market weakness.


"An enormous amount of liquidity has inflated some of these cryptocurrencies," said Nordea Asset Management's senior macro analyst, Sebastien Galy. As various central banks tighten their monetary policies, he expects crypto, which is also tied to high-growth equities, will face pressure.
