1. [NY] Stablecoins and (Non)Crypto Shocks: A 2026 Update

This update examines the stability of fiat-pegged digital assets and their resilience to volatility within the broader crypto ecosystem. For our outlook, this is critical for assessing systemic risk and the potential for "shadow banking" contagion to leak into traditional money markets.

2. [RIC] What Unemployment Insurance Claims Can β€” and Cannot β€” Tell Us

The research suggests that falling continuing claims may be a lagging or misleading indicator rather than a sign of labor market strength. If this decline reflects worker discouragement or a shift in claim eligibility rather than re-employment, the Fed may be overestimating labor resilience, increasing the likelihood of a policy pivot.

Synthesis:

The current research highlights a tension between the evolving risks of digital financial infrastructure and a potential misreading of labor market health. We should remain skeptical of headline employment strength and closely monitor the regulatory trajectory of stablecoins as systemic integration increases.
