Wall Street is buzzing again. Trump is getting serious this time—threatening to sue JPMorgan Chase within two weeks, accusing the financial giant of political discrimination on the issue of "debanking." At the same time, he urgently clarified and firmly denied the rumors of appointing JPMorgan Chase CEO as Federal Reserve Chair.

But this is not the main event. What truly makes the market tremble is the heavy bombshell he dropped—setting a 10% cap on credit card interest rates. With this move, bank stocks plummeted, and Wall Street analysts began frantic calculations of the shrinking profits.

The president and the financial giant have completely turned against each other, and the ripple effects of their confrontation are still spreading. Policy uncertainty is soaring, and market sentiment is swinging wildly. This marks the beginning of ongoing upheaval in the financial sector, with subsequent impacts gradually becoming evident. For traders focused on the macro environment, every upcoming move is worth close attention.

Once the interest rate ceiling was announced, the entire mempool exploded. With such a large selling pressure in bank stocks, we need to quickly scan on-chain data to see the institutions' dumping pace—how much arbitrage opportunity can be uncovered here depends on who has the most aggressive gas optimization.

The ceiling on credit card interest rates—Trump really dares to move the bank's cheese... Wall Street is feeling the pain this time JPMorgan Chase is crying and dizzy, and now they have to be told. I’ve made a killing from this wave of bank stock declines haha 10% ceiling? It feels like policy risk is the real bomb, there might be more to come Trump vs. Wall Street, this good show has just begun, let's wait and see how it unfolds Policy uncertainty is exploding, should we reduce leverage or add positions? I really can't figure it out Here it comes again, the century-long battle between the President and the banks—are they really playing for keeps this time? Credit card interest rates are locked, banks' profit margins are gone—could this actually be a good thing for retail investors? Wall Street analysts should be cursing right now, profit statements are plummeting in a straight line With the policy ceiling implemented, it seems like a bunch of aftereffects are waiting to explode Trump's move this time has directly turned the financial markets into a mess

Credit card cap at 10%? Banks are going to cry their eyes out, this move is truly brilliant JPMorgan Chase really stepped on a landmine this time, turns out Trump wasn't joking Honestly, if this policy really gets implemented, financial stocks will plummet to the core We'll see Wall Street's reaction when the market opens tomorrow, feeling a bit excited With the interest rate ceiling set, the era of banks' huge profits might be coming to an end? Interesting

JPMorgan is really feeling the pain this time. As soon as the 10% interest rate cap was announced, bank stocks plummeted for free😅

Data shows that after this policy implementation, bank stocks indeed experienced a significant decline, but the key is whether it can be truly enforced—historical data indicates that such political games often end in compromise. Don't be greedy and chase short positions.

10% ceiling? Banks are crying in the trading rooms. --- JPMorgan Chase is being called out again; this guy really doesn't stay quiet. --- Oh my God, policy reversals are happening faster than I cut my positions. --- Credit card interest rates are so high, next should be the mortgage, right? --- This wave on Wall Street really caught everyone off guard; it's good news for the crypto circle, everyone. --- Wait, can this really be implemented, or is it just another empty promise? --- Bank stocks are about to cry; I need to adjust my portfolio quickly. --- The de-banking issue has turned into a political struggle, this is too absurd. --- This plot twist is more exciting than a candlestick chart. --- The rumors about the Federal Reserve Chair haven't died down, but a clarification is also good.
