🧑‍💻 This week on "Minding the Gap:"

Clarified through social media, President Trump has nominated Michael Selig as the next chairman for the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).

“I pledge to work tirelessly to facilitate Well-Functioning Commodity Markets, promote Freedom, Competition, and Innovation, and help the President make the United States the Crypto Capital of the World," said Selig on X.

With the federal government shutdown, major appointments are now being announced via social media. Could this be the new normal for regulatory announcements? Read Eugene's full insight here: https://www.ftfnews.com/a-new-nominee-for-cftc-chairman-emerges/.

$244,700 💰

That's the average Wall Street bonus in 2024. You read that right--BONUS. And 2025 is shaping up to be even bigger.

Profits for Wall Street and midtown firms could set a record and surpass $60 billion in 2025 if key patterns continue. “As market activity and profits have increased, the overall bonus pool in 2025 is likely to increase as well,” according to New York State Comptroller, Thomas P. DiNapoli.

The numbers don't lie:
💠 First-half profits: $30.4 billion
💠 Trading revenues: Up 73.4% compared to last year
💠 Projected bonuses: Investment banking roles expected to see ~20% increase

Volatility may shake the markets, but clearly not the bonus pool.

🎯 This week's "Minding the Gap": A.I.'s proving ground - Does it actually work?

Bill Stone, CEO of SS&C Technologies (), has watched every major IT revolution since the 1980s. But he's not impressed by hype—only results.

His test for success? Simple: Does the technology dramatically drive down costs and prove its value?
→ "A lot of the magic is how it helps everybody. That's how technology really changes what happens."

Read Stone's full take on why A.I. must earn its place in securities operations: https://www.ftfnews.com/bill-stone-says-a-i-must-prove-its-value/.
