On February 13th, JPMorgan strategists recommended selling two-year U.S. Treasury bonds as a "tactical" move, arguing that the U.S. economic growth outlook remains robust, making it difficult for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates significantly. The strategist team wrote in a report, "The economic fundamentals are strong, and once Kevin Warshs nomination is confirmed and he takes over as Fed chair, it will be very difficult for him to influence the decisions of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC)."

The high crude oil costs are unlikely to diminish their suppressive effect on gasoline and diesel refining spreads in the future.Huawei Chinas official Weibo account announced that the Huawei China Partner Conference 2026 will be held from March 19th to 20th.February 13th - The National Hydrogen Energy Storage and Transportation Equipment Quality Inspection and Testing Center (Guangdong) has recently received formal approval from the State Administration for Market Regulation for its establishment.
