REX Shares Launches Energy Long and Short MicroSectors ETNs Tracking Solactive Index
February 15, 2023--Oil & Gas are the main ingredients of a great variety of industrial products such as transportation fuels, plastics, solvents, and a source of electricity and heat generation. Recently, demand and supply for these commodities as well as their prices have been rising in volatility on a global basis, especially due to market concerns about energy shortages, Covid-19 restrictions in China, and a recession in the horizon.
However, the restraints of Russian oil by the European Union, China's reopening, and the prospect of a change in the Fed monetary policy can establish a different scenario for these commodities' prices. Solactive is pleased to announce REX Shares, LLC ("REX") launched two Exchange Traded Notes (ETNs) issued by Bank of Montreal ("BMO") linked to the Solactive MicroSectors Energy Index (ticker: BIGOIL). The ETNs, MicroSectors Energy 3x Leveraged ETNs (ticker: WTIU) and MicroSectors Energy -3x Inverse Leveraged ETNs (ticker: WTID) started trading today on NYSE Arca.
CBO-Federal Debt and the Statutory Limit, February 2023
February 15, 2023--Summary
The debt limit-commonly called the debt ceiling-is the maximum amount of debt that the Department of the Treasury can issue to the public or to other federal agencies. The amount is set by law and has been increased or suspended over the years to allow for the additional borrowing needed to finance the government's operations. On December 16, 2021, lawmakers raised the debt limit by $2.5 trillion to a total of $31.4 trillion.
On January 19, 2023, that limit was reached, and the Treasury announced a "debt issuance suspension period" during which, under current law, it can take well-established "extraordinary measures" to borrow additional funds without breaching the debt ceiling.
The Congressional Budget Office projects that, if the debt limit remains unchanged, the government's ability to borrow using extraordinary measures will be exhausted between July and September 2023-that is, in the fourth quarter of the current fiscal year. The projected exhaustion date is uncertain because the timing and amount of revenue collections and outlays over the intervening months could differ from CBO's projections. In particular, income tax receipts in April could be more or less than CBO estimates. If those receipts fell short of estimated amounts-for example, if capital gains realizations in 2022 were smaller or if U.S. income growth slowed by more in early calendar year 2023 than CBO projected-the extraordinary measures could be exhausted sooner, and the Treasury could run out of funds before July.
CBO-The Budget and Economic Outlook: 2023 to 2033
February 15, 2023--The Congressional Budget Office regularly publishes reports presenting its baseline projections of what the federal budget and the economy would look like in the current year and over the next 10 years if current laws governing taxes and spending generally remained unchanged.
This report is the latest in that series.
The Budget
CBO projects a federal budget deficit of $1.4 trillion for 2023. (Deficits and spending have been adjusted to exclude the effects of shifts that occur in the timing of certain payments when October 1 falls on a weekend.) In the agency's projections, deficits generally increase over the coming years; the shortfall in 2033 is $2.7 trillion. The deficit amounts to 5.3 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2023, swells to 6.1 percent of GDP in 2024 and 2025, and then declines in the two years that follow. After 2027, deficits increase again, reaching 6.9 percent of GDP in 2033-a level exceeded only five times since 1946.
SEC Proposes Enhanced Safeguarding Rule for Registered Investment Advisers
February 15, 2023--The Securities and Exchange Commission today proposed rule changes to enhance protections of customer assets managed by registered investment advisers. If adopted, the changes would amend and redesignate rule 206(4)-2, the Commission's custody rule, under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and amend certain related recordkeeping and reporting obligations.
The proposed rules would exercise Commission authority under section 411 of the Dodd-Frank Act by broadening the application of the current investment adviser custody rule beyond client funds and securities to include any client assets in an investment adviser's possession or when an investment adviser has authority to obtain possession of client assets. Like the current rule, the proposed rule would entrust safekeeping of client assets to qualified custodians, including, for example, certain banks or broker-dealers.
SEC Finalizes Rules to Reduce Risks in Clearance and Settlement
February 15, 2023--Final rules will shorten process for settling securities transactions from two business days to one.

The final rule is designed to benefit investors and reduce the credit, market, and liquidity risks in securities transactions faced by market participants.
