As long predicted, much of the federal government shut down Oct. 1 after Congress failed to pass required spending bills, with Democrats demanding Republicans renew the expiring Affordable Care Act subsidies in exchange for votes. While a shutdown does not affect Medicare and Medicaid, it could eventually hinder activities from every corner of the Department of Health and Human Services. Meanwhile, as Democrats and Republicans point fingers, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pursues policies and personnel undermining vaccines. Lauren Weber of The Washington Post, Shefali Luthra of The 19th, and Rachel Cohrs Zhang of Bloomberg News join KFF Health News' Julie Rovner to discuss the news. Also this week, Rovner interviews KFF Health News' Cara Anthony, who wrote the latest “Bill of the Month” feature, about an out-of-network eye surgery that left one kindergartner's family with a big bill. Plus, for “extra credit,” the panelists suggest health policy stories they read this week that they think you should read, too: Julie Rovner: KFF Health News' “Big Loopholes in Hospital Charity Care Programs Mean Patients Still Get Stuck With the Tab,” by Michelle Andrews.

Collateralized loan obligations, particularly those backed by middle-market borrowers, are a growing opportunity for investors, according to Crescent Capital Group. “You have to work really hard to blow those structures up,” said John Fekete, the company’s head of tradeable credit, speaking of CLOs generally. Middle-market deals will make up a “larger and larger percentage of CLO issuance,” he tells Bloomberg News’ James Crombie and Bloomberg Intelligence’s Jody Lurie in the latest episode of the Credit Edge podcast. We also discuss leveraged loan relative value, the outlook for US consumers and casinos, tariff damage and the impact of liability management exercises.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a rambling news conference that shocked public health experts, President Donald Trump this week — without scientific evidence — blamed the over-the-counter drug acetaminophen, and too many childhood vaccines, for the increase in autism diagnoses in the U.S. That came days after a key immunization advisory committee, newly reconstituted with vaccine doubters, changed several long-standing recommendations. Former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention official Demetre Daskalakis joins KFF Health News' Julie Rovner to discuss those stories. Meanwhile, Sandhya Raman of CQ Roll Call and Anna Edney of Bloomberg News join Rovner with the rest of the news, including a threat by the Trump administration to fire rather than furlough federal workers if Congress fails to fund the government beyond the Oct. 1 start of the new fiscal year.

En la edición de hoy del Radar Empresarial, centramos nuestra atención en Tether, la empresa que está detrás de USDT, la stablecoin más utilizada a nivel mundial. Según declaraciones de su CEO, Paolo Ardoino, la compañía se encuentra analizando una posible ronda de financiamiento que podría situar su valoración en unos 500.000 millones de dólares. De acuerdo con Bloomberg News, la firma estaría considerando captar entre 15.000 y 20.000 millones de dólares, enfocándose en atraer a inversores de alto perfil. Ardoino comentó en la red social X que esta estrategia busca no solo fortalecer su posición en el sector de las stablecoins, sino también expandirse hacia otras industrias como la inteligencia artificial y los recursos naturales. La empresa está dispuesta a ofrecer un 3% de participación, teniendo en cuenta que USDT —su principal activo— cuenta con una capitalización de mercado cercana a los 173.000 millones de dólares. Tether ha sido una de las compañías beneficiadas por el enfoque favorable hacia las criptomonedas por parte de la administración de Donald Trump, quien expresó en repetidas ocasiones su deseo de convertir a Estados Unidos en el epicentro global del ecosistema cripto. En agosto, Tether incorporó a Bo Hines, ex asesor de la Casa Blanca, con el propósito de liderar su estrategia de crecimiento dentro del territorio estadounidense. Hines fue uno de los impulsores de la Ley GENIUS, considerada por el Foro Económico Mundial como el primer paso legislativo de EE. UU. hacia la regulación de stablecoins. Esta normativa establece requisitos como que los emisores de estas monedas digitales deben ser entidades depositarias aseguradas o mantener una reserva en proporción 1:1 respecto a las monedas emitidas. Pero el alcance de Tether no se limita únicamente a USDT. A comienzos de este mes, la firma lanzó un nuevo activo digital llamado USAT, con el objetivo de fortalecer su presencia en el mercado estadounidense. Hines asumirá el rol de director ejecutivo en este nuevo proyecto. Además, Tether continúa desarrollando actividades en el sector de la minería de Bitcoin. Recientemente, surgieron rumores sobre su posible retiro de Uruguay debido al alto costo de la energía, aunque la compañía ha asegurado que sigue en diálogo con autoridades y actores locales para encontrar soluciones viables.

Traded corporate debt is much more attractive than private credit, according to RBC BlueBay Asset Management. “Public credit is far superior,” Tom Moulds, senior portfolio manager for investment-grade fixed income at the $534 billion firm, tells Bloomberg News’ James Crombie and Bloomberg Intelligence’s Tolu Alamutu in the latest Credit Edge podcast. “There’ll probably be a point where you do see losses and people get very concerned,” says Moulds, referring to private debt, which he doesn’t invest in. “If we did slip into a period where growth looked weaker, then I think it would be a problem,” he adds.

The Labor Department, which oversees the BLS, ordered the independent review to examine “procedures and practices for the equitable and timely provision of data to the public.” The findings of the 60-day external review were published Tuesday and included a number of recommendations to improve processes and communications. “We have already begun the work of turning the team's recommendations into a roadmap to recommit our agency to data security and equitable access to data,” BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer said on a call Tuesday. Well, she didn't. This corresponds pretty well to the problems President Trump cited on the day he gave her the boot: Note that he didn't object to the data itself, as Summers and his buddies claimed; he objected to the constant revisions of the data, big, unprecedented revisions, released at politically sensitive times, always good for the Democrats and always bad for the Republicans, pretty well nullifying the purpose of collecting data at all.  She also said she'd have the problems under control -- and she didn't, so out she went.
