On August 21st, based on market data, the US stock BNB Treasury company Windtree Therapeutics (WINT) received a notification from Nasdaq on August 19, 2025. Due to the fact that its stock price remained below $1 for an extended period (Rule 5550(a)(2)), after multiple reverse stock splits and failing to meet the usual extension criteria, its common stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market on August 21st and will be traded on the OTC market. This piece of news led to its stock price starting to plummet early today, ultimately closing down by 77.21% with a market capitalization of only $3.152 million.

August 21st. The minutes of this week's Federal Reserve meeting made eight references to "stablecoins". Many participants engaged in discussions regarding recent and future developments related to payment stablecoins and their potential implications for the financial system. These participants pointed out that with the recent enactment of the "GENIUS Act" (the "U.S. Stablecoin Guidance and National Innovation Act"), the usage of payment stablecoins may witness an increase. Payment stablecoins contribute to enhancing the efficiency of the payment system. It has also been noticed that such stablecoins may lead to an increase in the demand for the underlying assets supporting them (including U.S. Treasuries). (Jinshi)

August 21st: In Nick Timiraos' latest article, titled "the Fed's Whisperer", it was reported that the minutes of today's policy meeting indicated that there was widespread support within the Fed for the decision made last month to keep interest rates unchanged. Although two officials advocated for a rate cut, a few others have aligned with Bullard and Bostic, suggesting that they may support a rate cut at the Fed's next meeting on September 16th and 17th. They pointed out that the transmission of tariff increases to consumer prices has been slower than anticipated, which is expected to help ease concerns about the potential new inflationary impact resulting from rising import costs. However, the "hawks" who are focused on inflation noted that since the last meeting, price pressures have been on the rise, including in the services sector. Kansas City Fed President Esther George stated in a speech last week that the impact of tariffs on inflation is limited. This is partly because the F

On August 21st, the minutes of the Federal Reserve's July meeting indicated that during the meeting held on July 30th, the concerns of some Federal Reserve officials about an economic slowdown had grown stronger. The minutes stated: "Several participants suggested that they anticipated that the pace of economic activity in the second half of the year would be significantly slower." The minutes also further noted: "Regarding the household sector, several participants observed that the deceleration in real income growth might be impeding the growth of consumer spending." It is important to note that these viewpoints were expressed several days before the release of the July jobs report, which revised down the estimated job gains for May and June by 258,000. Therefore, since the July meeting, the concerns about an economic slowdown potentially triggered by the softness in the labor market may have further intensified for some officials. (Jin10)
