U.S. Government Shutdown Begins – Impact on Markets, USD & Treasuries Description: The U.S. federal government has officially shut down after Congress failed to reach a funding agreement. This marks the first shutdown since 2019 — and it comes amid a bitter fight between President Donald Trump and Democrats over healthcare subsidies (ACA) and Medicaid cuts. In this video, I explain: • Why the U.S. government needs funding approvals • What ACA and GOP mean, and why they are at the center of the fight • The political deadlock between Trump and Democrats • Immediate fallout: furloughed workers, disrupted services, risk of millions losing healthcare • Market impact: volatility in U.S. stocks, USD movement, and Treasury yields • Global spillover risks for Asia, Singapore, and investors like us History shows shutdowns are often temporary — but the longer this lasts, the bigger the damage to confidence, growth, and markets. 👉 Stay tuned as we track the economic and investment implications for Singaporeans, Malaysians, and global investors.
