‘Big Beautiful Bill' Raises Threat of Default for Litigation Asset-Backed Securities

Legislation tucked inside President Donald Trump's landmark tax bill could make it difficult for asset-backed securities tied to litigation funding to make timely interest payments, according to a note by Kroll Bond Rating Agency. The Tackling Predatory Litigation Funding Act, which is part of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act currently in the Senate, would impose substantial new taxes on profits from third-party litigation funding, says the June 27 note by authors including Joanne DeSimone and Zara Shirazi.

Gold holds steady as markets await US data

Gold prices held steady on Wednesday as investors awaited U.S. payroll data and assessed Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's cautious stance on interest rate cuts. A weaker dollar and the passage of a major U.S. tax and spending bill also offered some support. Spot gold stood at $3,338.22 per ounce as of 00:36 GMT, while U.S. gold futures were unchanged at $3,347.80. The U.S. dollar index fell to its lowest level in over three years, making gold more attractive to holders of other currencies. Reuters

Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq slip after record run as Tesla sinks with Trump tax bill in focus

US stocks edged lower Tuesday, pulling back from record highs as Wall Street watched for progress on trade talks and on President Trump's massive budget bill in the Senate. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) dropped about 0.3% after closing above 6,200 for the first time on Monday, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) slipped around 0.2%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) fell 0.4%, with Tesla (TSLA) stock sliding as CEO Elon Musk's feud with Trump flared up again. Senate lawmakers voted through the night and into Tuesday morning on amendments to finalize Trump's signature tax and spending bill, racing to meet the president's desired July 4 deadline. While Republican wrangling over the measures continues, one amendment passed with big bipartisan support: A strike-down of the ban on AI regulation by states. The vote is a blow to tech companies, many of which have supported Trump. Another looming deadline has prompted the US to scale back Trump's push for full-blown "reciprocal" deals with trading partners, the Financial Times reported. Instead, officials are racing to find narrower agreements before July 9, when the president's sweeping "reciprocal" tariffs are set to resume.

As markets grow optimistic that a rate cut is around the corner, the focus is on what Powell says about the Fed's policy stance at the ECB forum in Sintra, Portugal. Those Fed hopes have put the Thursday's release of the June jobs report in high focus this week. The watch is on for signs of cooling in the labor market that could bolster the case for a cut sooner rather than later. Tuesday's Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) kicks off this week's labor-market-focused data.

The S&P 500 (^GSPC) dropped about 0.3% after closing above 6,200 for the first time on Monday, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) traded roughly flat. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) fell 0.4%, with Tesla (TSLA) stock plummeting more than 7% as CEO Elon Musk's feud with Trump reignited. Nvidia (NVDA) fell 1% and Meta (META) dropped fractionally after the two members of the "Magnificent Seven" hit fresh records the prior day. Tesla (TSLA) stock sank as much as 6% before the market open Tuesday as the feud between CEO Elon Musk and President Trump reignited overnight, with the president once again threatening to cut government subsidies across Elon Musk's businesses, including Tesla and SpaceX ( 'Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far, and without subsidies, Elon would probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa,' Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social early Monday. 'No more Rocket launches, Satellites, or Electric Car Production, and our Country would save a FORTUNE. Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this? BIG MONEY TO BE SAVED!!!' The threats followed Musk's criticism of Trump's "big, beautiful" tax and spending bill over the weekend after the Senate advanced the bill with last-minute additions that would eliminate electric vehicle tax credits, which benefit Tesla customers, earlier than expected and add $1 trillion to the bill's original price tag.

The 10-year Treasury yield (^TNX) fell about 2 basis points to 4.20% on Tuesday — hitting its lowest level in two months — ahead of Fed Chair Jerome Powell's speech today at the ECB forum in Sintra, Portugal.

From President Trump's tariffs to the Federal Reserve rate cut saga, the US stock market has just completed a roller-coaster first half of the year. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) is up 5% year to date, rebounding from its April slump after Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs were announced. But what should investors watch for in the second half of 2025?
