A discussion of why and why not the US government will shutdown on October 1 -- and the implications for markets -- led Bloomberg Intelligence's Sept. 29 Washington Policy Pulse. We continue to note one of the most important impacts for market participants will be a potential lack of government data -- such as Bureau of Labor Statistics employment reports. We also discussed President Donald Trump's recent tariff announcements -- including a 100% tariff on films made outside the US. We have previously ascertained that such a tariff is on weak legal grounds. Finally, we discussed recent developments in the crypto space, impacting firms like Robinhood, Coinbase and Bullish.
