Traders eyeing KIS futures highlight the steady increase in margin balances, indicating leveraged positioning aimed at capturing potential upside from next week’s CPI release. The rapid growth is also visible in monthly stablecoin transaction volumes. Corporate transactions surged from less than $100 million in early 2023 to more than $3 billion by early 2025. Colin Woodall , senior vice president of governmental affairs for the NCBA, is apparently pretty impressed with the effort in which the Trump Administration is investing in its attempt to close the several ongoing trade deals that between the US and multiple other countries that still remain in negotiations. The main focus, of course, is on China right now. Given the level of discussion currently, with the USTR's office and Chinese delegates down to negotiating the finer points of a deal, Woodall says things look fairly promising that a pact will at some point hopefully in the near future be made. Quant models show KIS futures beta versus S&P 500 at 0.95 this quarter, reflecting near-parallel movement with U.S. equities during risk-on phases.
