Liu Haoling, Vice Chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC), stated in his address that China is a major contributor to and a stabilizing force for global economic growth, and a fertile ground for foreign investment. Since the beginning of this year, foreign capital has steadily flowed into the Chinese stock market through various channels. As of now, overseas investors hold over 4 trillion yuan in A-share market capitalization, becoming significant participants in Chinas capital market.On May 28th, European Central Bank Chief Economist Lane stated on Thursday that even if the Middle East conflict is resolved quickly, the resulting energy shock could still have a lasting impact on inflation. While historically, oil prices tend to fall back to their original levels after a surge, the current situation may be different as countries replenish their inventories or adjust their energy mix, potentially keeping energy costs high. Lane stated, "Global oil supply experienced a fairly rapid and significant drop overnight, a situation previously masked by inventories. Even as the initial energy shock begins to subside, the second wave of effects will continue for some time." Lane indicated that some policy lessons can be learned from past energy shocks, such as how rising energy costs can suddenly push up inflation and trigger "various non-linear" mechanisms, thus broadening the scope of price increases. "But this is different from the non-linear situation four years ago," when supply disruptions caused by the war in Ukraine and strong demand from the economic reopening following the COVID-19 pandemic jointly pushed up inflation. Lane stated that central banks must face any major shocks and their potential impact on inflation, but should avoid overreacting when formulating monetary policy.

Voyager Digital Holdings Inc., a cryptocurrency company, has been granted permission by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York to restore $270 million in client funds, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.


Voyager Digital Holdings Inc., a cryptocurrency company, has been granted permission by the US Bankruptcy Court in New York to restore $270 million in client funds, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.


According to the Journal, Judge Michael Wiles, who is in charge of Voyager's bankruptcy, said the firm had "sufficient grounds" to back up its claim that clients should be given access to the custodial account kept at Metropolitan Commercial Bank.


The business did not immediately respond to requests for comment.


Voyager, one of several businesses that struggled after the widespread turbulence on the cryptocurrency market, filed for Chapter 11 last month.


Voyager reported that it had between $1 billion and $10 billion in assets and liabilities, as well as over 100,000 creditors, in its bankruptcy case.


The Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp (FDIC) issued an injunction to the firm last week directing it to stop making "false and misleading" promises about the government's protection of its clients' cash.


The firm only had a bank account at Metropolitan Commercial Bank, according to the authorities, and none of the investors using its platform were covered by the FDIC.


During the COVID-19 epidemic, cryptocurrency lenders like Voyager saw a surge in business, luring depositors with high interest rates and convenient access to loans that conventional banks seldom ever gave. Lenders have suffered from the recent decline in cryptocurrency markets, which was brought on by the failure of two significant tokens in May.
