Why does this newsroom cover the White House as a market story?

Because executive actions on tariffs, regulation, energy, and digital assets change asset prices directly, and because the relationship between the White House and the Federal Reserve shapes rate expectations. We report what was done, what it affects, and how markets responded, and we keep opinion out of the news pages.

What is an executive order and what can it do?

A directive from the president to the executive branch that carries the force of law within the president’s existing authority. It cannot create new law or spending on its own, which is why courts and Congress often become the next chapter of any major order.

How does the White House influence crypto policy?

Through appointments to the SEC, CFTC, and Treasury, through executive orders that set agency priorities, through support or opposition to legislation moving in Congress, and through the tone it sets for enforcement. Personnel and posture change faster than statutes, which is why administrations matter so much to the industry.
