Lawmakers in the US House Committee on Agriculture’s Subcommittee on Commodity Markets, Digital Assets, and Rural Development held a Tuesday hearing on how the Commodity Futures Trading Commission could oversee prediction market companies, including discussion of pending crypto market structure legislation. Carl Kennedy, a partner at New York law firm Katten Muchin Rosenman, said the agency is likely too short-staffed to fully manage regulation and enforcement for platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket. According to Cointelegraph, Kennedy said the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, or CLARITY Act, under consideration in the US Senate could give the CFTC more authority not only over digital assets but also over the rapid growth of prediction markets. Kennedy said the CFTC should receive additional resources if it is to address new asset classes in cash markets and crypto, as well as the growth of prediction markets. His comments came amid broader legal and regulatory debate over the CFTC’s approach under Chair Michael Selig, who has taken the position that the agency has exclusive jurisdiction over the companies and that event contracts on the platforms are swaps under the CFTC’s authority. Selig is the only Senate-confirmed member leading the agency, which normally has five commissioners. The stance has drawn criticism from Democratic senators, who say it amounts to an assault on state authorities seeking to regulate prediction market platforms, and several US states have filed lawsuits against Kalshi and Polymarket over sports betting. Last week, Selig ordered Kalshi to ignore a Michigan court ruling, and the company said it was placed in an impossible position between state and federal authorities. Some legal experts expect one or more of the cases to reach the US Supreme Court. Republican senators pushing for a vote on the CLARITY Act before the chamber breaks for August state work periods said they expect the bill’s text to be released soon. As of Tuesday, details on how the legislation could address prediction markets, ethics, and other issues raised by lawyers had not been made public. In June, gambling industry groups asked the US Senate to add language to CLARITY that would explicitly prohibit event contracts tied to sports and casino-style gaming. The White House also confirmed reports that the Trump administration agreed to what it described as the most comprehensive and wide-ranging ethics provision in history and said it had bent over backward to accommodate Democrats’ concerns.

According to CNBC, investors have been moving into short-term Treasury exchange-traded funds while reducing exposure to longer-dated government bonds after JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon warned this week that stocks and bonds could both face pressure. The iShares 0-3 Month Treasury Bond ETF (SGOV) has taken in $47.5 billion in net inflows this year, making it the biggest bond ETF for inflows and the third-largest bond ETF overall with close to $100 billion in assets. Dimon said in an interview on Monday that he would not buy long-dated Treasurys and put the 10-year bond at 4% to 4.5%; the 10-year Treasury yield was 4.6%.

According to CNBC, OpenAI appointed David Vélez, CEO of Nubank, and Robin Vince, CEO of BNY, to its nonprofit and for-profit boards of directors as it moves closer to a prospective initial public offering. The company said the two executives will bring complementary perspectives on how technology can reshape industries and support economic growth. OpenAI said the appointments come as it is valued at more than $850 billion and has confidentially filed its prospectus with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in June, though it has not disclosed a timeline for a public debut. The company completed a recapitalization in October that established the OpenAI Foundation as a nonprofit with a controlling stake in the for-profit OpenAI Group PBC, and it said the nonprofit’s equity was valued at around $130 billion at the time.

According to Yonhap, South Korea's producer prices were unchanged in June as declines in petroleum and chemical products offset gains in computers, electronic devices, financial services, agricultural products and industrial liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply services, Bank of Korea data showed. The producer price index, a leading indicator of consumer inflation, followed on-month increases of 1% in May and 2.7% in April, while the index rose 8.6% from a year earlier. The central bank said lower global oil prices after a ceasefire in the Middle East pulled down energy costs, but a Bank of Korea official said the easing in producer-price growth may continue to feed through to non-energy sectors and add upward pressure on consumer prices. The domestic supply price index, which reflects both producer and import prices, rose 0.7% on month in June.
