Recent financial shifts have sparked debate and legal action across Wall Street. A group including Citadel Securities and Cboe is pursuing a lawsuit over the regulatory approval of single-stock perpetual contracts, a trading product derived from the cryptocurrency sector. Meanwhile, markets have seen significant volatility, with the 10-year Treasury yield recently exceeding 5%, hitting a 24-year high. Economists are analyzing whether these rising yields and recent stock selloffs are driven by massive corporate debt issuance related to AI infrastructure or deeper concerns regarding the $40 trillion U.S. national debt and $2 trillion budget deficit.
