On April 13, the peace negotiations between the United States and Iran failed, further shifting the bond market's focus to inflation issues and reinforcing expectations that interest rates will remain elevated for an extended period. For investors in the $31 trillion U.S. Treasury market, rising energy costs could exacerbate existing price pressures, potentially delaying the Federal Reserve's rate cut actions, a risk that looms ahead. Traders and strategists from Pacific Investment Management Company, Brandywine Global Investment Management, and Natixis North America are preparing for a scenario where yields remain high—many are reluctant to make significant adjustments to their asset allocations until they have a clearer understanding of the inflation outlook. Last Friday, the U.S. March CPI monthly increase reached its highest level since 2022, prompting the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield to exceed 4.3% and leading traders to reduce expectations for rate cuts this year. On Monday, yields rose further by 3 basis points to reach 4.35%.

On April 13, Trump and the U.S. Central Command expressed differing views on the scope of the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. military's official statement was more restrained, focusing only on Iranian ports rather than the entire Strait of Hormuz. Trump stated yesterday that the U.S. Navy would blockade the Strait of Hormuz, intercepting all vessels paying tolls to Iran. However, the Central Command announced that its forces would begin implementing a maritime blockade on all traffic in and out of Iranian ports starting at 10 AM Eastern Time on April 13 (10 PM Beijing Time today). This blockade will be applied equally to all foreign vessels entering or leaving Iranian ports and coastal areas, including all Iranian ports in the Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. The Central Command forces will not impede the freedom of navigation for vessels traveling to and from non-Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz.

On April 13, Mike Selig, the Chair of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), stated in an interview that the CFTC holds "exclusive regulatory authority" over predictive markets, and that states cannot replace federal derivatives regulation with state laws. Selig emphasized, "Regardless of whether the underlying subject involves sports, politics, or other areas, any product legally offered by CFTC-regulated trading platforms falls under our jurisdiction." This statement comes as the CFTC has filed lawsuits against Arizona, Illinois, and Connecticut to solidify its regulatory dominance over predictive markets. Selig mentioned that the CFTC is clarifying the regulatory details for predictive markets through a formal rulemaking process and welcomes input from all sectors regarding the evaluation process. In addition to the predictive market dispute, Selig also referred to the final digital asset classification guidance jointly released by the CFTC and SEC last month, which delineates clear boundaries between tokenized securities and commodities. In the future, if companies wish to self-certify digital asset futures products, regulators can directly determine the nature of the tokens based on this classification framework, ensuring alignment between the two agencies.

On April 13, Aave founder Stani announced on X the strategic direction following the approval of the AWW proposal. Stani stated that Aave will transition to a fully AAVE token-centric model, where holders will not only possess economic rights to the protocol but also to the brand, users, and integrated ecosystem. All revenue from applications and products (including AavePro, Aave App, Horizon, and Aave Kit) will flow back into the DAO treasury, with the exchange functions of Aave.com and Aave Pro generating an additional $10 to $20 million in new revenue.

On the product front, Aave App aims to attract millions of users with a fintech-level experience, offering each user a $1 million account guarantee and introducing a debit card; Aave Pro will cater to advanced users; and Horizon will expand support for RWA (Real World Assets). Stani emphasized the goal of growing Aave from a $40 billion protocol to over $1 trillion, positioning it as the foundational credit and repurchase market for the entire $400 trillion traditional financial asset space.

On April 13, Iranian Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian stated on social media that the recent negotiations between Iran and the United States held in Islamabad, Pakistan, are just 'one step away' from reaching an agreement.
