Veteran US politics and policy analyst Steve Okun, founder and CEO of APAC Advisors, joins Kopi Time to offer a cogent analysis of the US political cycle. We begin by assessing the gravity of the November mid-term elections, examining the domestic and foreign policy implications. Steve then details the momentum of key races and issues at stake for the voters. We talk about the elections likely to be a referendum on Donald Trump’s presidency, the role of special interests, and the predictive power of polls. We consider a set of scenario analyses, from a blue sweep to status quo, and even the possibility of a constitutional crisis in January 2027. We conclude with how all this will set things up for the 2028 presidential elections.

With West Asia tensions yet to be resolved and public spending in major economies rising relentlessly, global bond markets are expressing their concern. Long-term yields are hitting highs not seen in years, with the risk of policy intervention on bond and currency markets rising. Meanwhile, AI buildup continues to dominate financial markets, trade tensions have been widening, and China-US issues remain unresolved. Markets have held up remarkably well this year, but resiliency does not mean invulnerability. Please join us at our September Livestream as I go over global macro, Senior Rates Strategist Eugene Leow takes stock of the bond market, and Senior Currency Strategist Chang Wei Liang looks at the FX/credit/digital assets space.
Macro Insights Livestream September: Bond markets to the fore
The convergence of tokenization and artificial intelligence is reshaping the foundations of capital markets. Just as ETFs and electronic trading expanded market access and transformed financial infrastructure, tokenization is creating a new digital representation of value, while AI is enabling increasingly autonomous decision-making capabilities. Together, these technologies could redefine how assets are issued, traded, financed, and managed in the years ahead. Against this backdrop, we also examine the risks of tokenization and the policy considerations required to foster innovation while preserving market integrity and financial stability.

I just came back from a trip to the US, where I had the privilege to interact with a number of public and private sector officials. In this podcast, I lay out eight key takeaways, all under the overarching shadow of tense geopolitics and ballooning debt burden. (i) AI and the economy, (ii) the dollar, (iii) International relations, (iv) Midterm elections, (v) Fed and monetary policy, (vi) Fiscal dominance, (vii) Market risks, and (viii) Middle powers.
