Plan to sell off public land in the West nixed from ‘big, beautiful bill' amid GOP backlash
A controversial plan to sell hundreds of thousands of acres of public land across Western states — including California — was axed from the Republican tax and spending bill amid bipartisan backlash, prompting celebration from conservationists. Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), who spearheaded the proposal, announced he was pulling the provision on Saturday night on the social media platform X. Lee had said the land sale was intended to ease the financial burden of housing, pointing to a lack of affordability afflicting families in many communities. 'Because of the strict constraints of the budget reconciliation process, I was unable to secure clear, enforceable safeguards to guarantee that these lands would be sold only to American families — not to China, not to BlackRock and not to any foreign interests,' he wrote in the post. For that reason, he said, he was withdrawing the measure from the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' that Trump has said he wants passed by July 4. Lee's failed measure would have mandated the sale of between roughly 600,000 and 1.2 million acres of Bureau of Land Management land in 11 Western states, including California. The areas available for auction were supposed to be located within a five-mile radius of population centers. The effort represented a scaled-back version of a plan that was nixed from the reconciliation bill on Monday for violating Senate rules. The initial plan would have allowed for the sale of up to 3.3 million acres of land managed by BLM and the U.S. Forest Service. Lee's decision to scrap the proposal arrived after at least four Republican senators from Western states vowed to vote for an amendment to strike the proposal from the bill. At lease five House Republicans also voiced their opposition to the plan, including Reps. David Valadao of California and Ryan Zinke of Montana, who served as the Interior secretary during Trump's first term. The death of the provision was celebrated by conservationists as well as recreation advocates, including hunters and anglers, even as they steeled themselves for an ongoing fight over federal lands. The Trump administration has taken steps to open public lands for energy and resource extraction, including recently announcing it would rescind a rule that protects 58.5 million acres of national forestland from road construction and timber harvesting. Some critics saw the now-scrapped proposed land sale as means to offset tax cuts in the reconciliation bill. 'This is a victory for everyone who hikes, hunts, explores and cherishes these places, but it's not the end of the threats to our public lands,' said Athan Manuel, director of Sierra Club's Lands Protection Program, in a statement. 'Donald Trump and his allies in Congress have made it clear they will use every tool at their disposal to give away our public lands to billionaires and corporate polluters.' Chris Wood, president and chief executive of Trout Unlimited — a nonprofit dedicated to conserving rivers and streams to support trout and salmon — described protecting public lands as 'the most nonpartisan issue in the country.' 'This is certainly not the first attempt to privatize or transfer our public lands, and it won't be the last,' Wood said in a statement. 'We must stay vigilant and defend the places we love to fish, hike, hunt and explore.' Lee, in the Saturday X post, suggested the issue remained in play. He said he believed the federal government owns too much land — and that it is mismanaging it. Locked-away land in his state of Utah, he claimed, drives up taxes and limits the ability to build homes. 'President Trump promised to put underutilized federal land to work for American families, and I look forward to helping him achieve that in a way that respects the legacy of our public lands and reflects the values of the people who use them most.'

Options Markets Show Traders Reposition as Mideast Tension Fades
(Bloomberg) -- Stocks hit record highs last week and energy futures retreated after Middle East tensions eased. But in some parts of the options markets, there are still signs of stress as investors position for potential geopolitical and macroeconomic upsets. Philadelphia Transit System Votes to Cut Service by 45%, Hike Fares Squeezed by Crowds, the Roads of Central Park Are Being Reimagined Sprawl Is Still Not the Answer Mapping the Architectural History of New York's Chinatown Sao Paulo Pushes Out Favela Residents, Drug Users to Revive Its City Center In the short term, equity investors are getting more bullish, with the premium for puts shrinking. But longer term, skew has barely changed, signaling less enduring optimism. Likewise, longer-dated futures on the Cboe Volatility Index have remained higher, showing more deferred angst around the economic impact of tariffs. 'Derivative markets have not fully returned to February levels,' Rocky Fishman, the founder of research firm Asym 500 LLC, wrote in a note Friday. 'This shows a justifiable lasting effect of April's volatility. The VIX futures curve has steepened, leaving the six-month area of the curve at a level that was rare in much of 2023-24.' There were signs of VIX call buying last week, when the Cboe VVIX Index — the so-called vol of vol — dropped below 90, which has been the lower end for the measure since last July. Oil markets are also slow to fully recover from the Israel-Iran conflict, even as attention is turning back to economic and fundamental factors. Brent implied volatility has fallen to the levels from early June, and the skew is flat, indicating there's no bullish or bearish bias. Still, bets for crude swings hold a wider premium to equities, after the S&P 500 Index's rally to a peak has put options under pressure. In a note last week, JPMorgan Chase & Co. derivatives strategists including Emma Wu suggested equity-oil hybrid trades, saying crude prices could rise should Middle East stress flare back up just as stocks may fall with interest rates staying higher for longer. While correlation between the two asset classes recently reached a high, they highlighted that the relationship tends to turn negative in periods of geopolitical tension. The fast-evolving geopolitical situation has given many investors whiplash. Hedge funds and other large money managers cut their net-long positions in Brent crude futures and options by the most since early April in the week through June 24, according to ICE Futures Europe data, after building up the largest bullish position in 11 weeks. And it's not just for oil. In the European natural gas market, trend-following Commodity Trading Advisors flipped to 18% net shorts from 9% net longs last Tuesday, according to data from Bridgeton Research Group LLC. The algorithms often exacerbate market moves, making it harder for traders with physical exposure to navigate the market. One area that has seen a rare influx of investor interest has been calendar spreads on crude oil, with options open interest reaching a record high this month. In an unusual situation, traders had bet that short-term tightness could reverse to a glut as OPEC and other producers add barrels to the market just as an uncertain economic outlook risks crimping demand. That 'hockey-stick' shaped curve — which disappeared due to the Israel-Iran attacks — has reverted to where it was three weeks ago. 'The sharp drop in the geopolitical risk premium likely reflects traders' recent experiences with major geopolitical shocks without significant oil disruptions, Iran's restrained response, strong US and China incentives to avoid large disruptions, and the likely shift to large inventory builds from the fall,' Goldman Sachs Group Inc. analysts including Yulia Zhestkova Grigsby and Daan Struyven wrote in a note. --With assistance from Alex Longley.
