On October 29th, Eastern Time, the Federal Reserve announced its second rate cut of the year by 25 basis points, lowering the interest rate range to 3.75%-4%, and scheduled to end the balance sheet reduction on December 1st.

Trump's &#34;tariff attitude&#34; has undergone a major reversal, authorizing a 90-day tariff suspension for countries that do not take retaliatory actions. A White House spokesperson stated that tailored negotiations will continue. US stocks staged a violent rebound last night, and gold prices surged. It is worth mentioning that US Treasuries faced a fierce sell-off after the tariffs were implemented, reaching an extremely dangerous moment, and only after Trump's attitude reversal did the decline barely stop and begin to recover, avoiding a &#34;collapse&#34; predicament.

China New Yuan Loans Fell in April

New yuan loans in April were -¥10 billion, indicating a concerning trend in credit demand. Year-to-date lending totals ¥8.59 trillion, down from ¥10 trillion last year. This decline suggests weakening economic momentum, prompting potential monetary policy easing by Beijing. Additionally, the US-Iran conflict is raising energy prices, further impacting China's economy, which relies on Iranian oil imports for about 15% of its total needs.

- In April, new RMB loans amounted to -100 billion, raising concerns about potential issues in credit demand following previous fluctuations.  
- The total new bank loans for the year so far reach 8.59 trillion RMB, significantly down from approximately 10 trillion RMB during the same period last year.
