Phyrex posted on X. As January 2026 progresses, the U.S. stock market has been underperforming, with international stocks consuming nearly all net inflows into developed market equities. Currently, developed market equity funds have seen over $50 billion in net inflows, with international shares accounting for $39 billion. Europe and Japan have attracted $5 billion and $2 billion respectively, while the U.S. has only seen $771 million in inflows. A significant factor affecting the U.S. market is U.S. President Donald Trump's stance on tariffs related to Greenland, which could lead to substantial capital withdrawal from U.S. stocks into international markets. The exposure of international markets to U.S. income is approximately 22%, which is insufficient to offset the risk of capital outflow from the U.S. Trump's focus on securing votes appears to be diverging from his goal of revitalizing the U.S. stock market.

Phyrex posted on X. U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a potential 100% tariff on all Canadian goods entering the United States if Canada finalizes a strategic partnership agreement with China. This agreement focuses on cooperation in energy, clean technology, and climate competitiveness. Under the deal, Canada would allow up to 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles into its market with a most-favored-nation tariff rate of 6.1%. In return, China would reduce the comprehensive tariff rate on Canadian canola to approximately 15%, and Canadian canola meal, lobster, crab, and peas would be exempt from anti-discrimination tariffs until the end of the year. While there is no official response from China and Canada yet, it is anticipated that both countries might react on Monday. The market is concerned that if Trump imposes the 100% tariff, it could lead to retaliatory measures from China and Canada. Currently, the market is experiencing low liquidity and minor fluctuations, typical of short-term investor activity over the weekend. There is uncertainty about how the market will react to Trump's tariff threat on Monday. The distribution of market positions remains healthy, and there is hope for the formation of a more stable support level. Observers are also waiting for the Supreme Court to define Trump's tariff policies. Meanwhile, there is a call for restraint from Trump to avoid further market disruptions.

The number of Bitcoin nodes indicating support for Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 110 (BIP-110) has increased to 2.38%. According to Cointelegraph, 583 out of 24,481 nodes are currently running BIP-110, with Bitcoin Knots being the primary node software implementation for this temporary soft fork. BIP-110 aims to limit the size of transaction outputs to 34 bytes and cap the OP_RETURN data limit to 83 bytes. This temporary measure is set to last for one year, with the possibility of extension or modification thereafter, as detailed on the proposal’s GitHub page. The OP_RETURN script code, which allows users to embed arbitrary data, has been a contentious topic within the Bitcoin community, especially following the release of Bitcoin Core version 30. This latest upgrade of the widely used Bitcoin node software removed the OP_RETURN limit, which had been capped at 83 bytes. The change, introduced through a controversial pull request first proposed in April 2025, faced significant opposition from the Bitcoin community. The update went live in October 2025, leading to criticism that removing the arbitrary data limit could encourage spam on the Bitcoin ledger. Critics argue that the increase in arbitrary data raises the storage costs of running a Bitcoin node, potentially leading to greater centralization of the network. Unlike high-throughput blockchains that require specialized hardware, Bitcoin nodes can typically be run on consumer-grade computers. However, increasing hardware requirements could undermine Bitcoin's value proposition as a decentralized monetary network. Bitcoin advocate Matthew Kratter likened the situation to a parasitical plant overwhelming a tree, suggesting that spam could similarly threaten Bitcoin's structure. Conversely, Bitcoin Core contributor Jameson Lopp supports the uncapped OP_RETURN limit, asserting that filters are ineffective in preventing spam on the network.
