Weekly Washington Policy Pulse: Crypto Bill Deal, Trump China Trip (May 11, 2026)

A more in-depth conversation about the future of the CLARITY Act -- a crypto market structure bill slated for Senate Banking Committee markup on May 14 -- led Bloomberg Intelligence's May 11 Washington Policy Pulse discussion. We think a deal between Senate lawmakers over stablecoins -- which the banking sector has pushed back against -- will likely hold. We also previewed what President Donald Trump's trip to China may bring, including potential deals related to Boeing and soybeans. Finally, we gave updates on housing legislation, Kevin Warsh's confirmation vote and private credit. The Bloomberg Intelligence Financial Policy weekly call is designed to provide investors an opportunity to learn about the most recent relevant policy research, information regarding forthcoming political catalysts and other on-goings within Washington DC.   The call is open to all and is held every Monday at 10:00 a.m. EST.
