Powell to Stay on Fed Board as Governor, Blocking Trump’s Path to Majority

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell announced he will stay on the Fed Board of Governors after his term as Chair ends on May 15, 2026, citing an ongoing Department of Justice (DOJ) investigation as the reason he cannot retire.　　The decision keeps Powell in his governor seat through January 2028 and prevents President Donald Trump from filling a fourth Board of Governors slot, a move that would have given the administration tighter influence over monetary policy votes.　　Powell Stays on as Fed Governor　　Powell delivered the announcement at what he confirmed was his final press conference as Fed Chair. He told reporters he had planned to retire when his current term ended, but legal pressure from the Trump administration had altered that calculation.　　Powell said he would wait until the active Department of Justice investigation reached its conclusion before stepping away from the Board.　　He also rejected the idea that he would operate as a “shadow chair” from his governor seat.　　“I would never do the ‘shadow chair thing’. I propose to be constructive participant on board,” he stated.　　Powell also congratulated Kevin Warsh, the Trump nominee expected to take over as Chair on May 15.　　Trump Loses Path to 4-Seat Board Majority　　Three of the seven seats on

Top 3 Meme Coins to Watch in May 2026

Tech　　Top 3 Meme Coins to Watch in May 2026　　Three meme coins delivered standout gains during April 2026. Dogecoin (DOGE) climbed 13.5%, Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) jumped 53%, and SkyAI rocketed 290% over the month.　　The trio reflects three different meme coin strategies. DOGE represents the legacy heavyweight. PENGU is a mid-cap with strong community and intellectual property momentum. SkyAI is the high-velocity artificial intelligence narrative play with explosive price action.　　Dogecoin (DOGE) Tests $0.082 Support With Compression Setup　　Dogecoin has traded in a downtrend since December 2024, with a secondary peak in September 2025. After several months of weakness, DOGE returned to test the $0.082 zone, which served as support during prior rallies.　　The weekly chart now shows green Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) readings and a rising Relative Strength Index (RSI). However, the RSI sits at 43, still below the 50 midline. Bollinger Bands have contracted alongside falling volume, a classic compression signal that often precedes a directional move.　　Bulls would need to flip the $0.10 midline of the Bollinger Bands to confirm a trend change. Above that level, the next resistance sits at $0.14, which aligns with the upper Bollinger Band, the long-term resistance, and the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement. A higher target sits near

Celsius founder Alex Mashinsky has been hit with a $4.7 billion penalty

U.S. regulators have imposed a $4.7 billion penalty on Alexander Mashinsky and permanently banned him from the crypto and financial services industries, in one of the strongest enforcement actions since the sectors 2022 collapse.　　The move by the Federal Trade Commission adds a major civil penalty to the 12-year prison sentence Mashinsky is already serving.　　The figure is not arbitrary. When Celsius Network filed for bankruptcy, it owed customers roughly $4.7 billion—making the penalty a direct reflection of user losses.　　A New York judge, Denise Cote, approved the order. Most of the amount is suspended. Mashinsky must pay $10 million, which can be covered through funds already tied to a separate forfeiture order.　　But the suspension comes with risk.　　If regulators later find he concealed assets, the full $4.7 billion could be reinstated.　　“A warning shot” for crypto　　Industry voices say the lifetime ban may be more consequential than the financial penalty.　　“This isn‘t just punishment—it’s a warning shot,” said Anthony Pompliano. “Regulators are making it clear that misleading retail investors will end careers, not just companies.”　　Others see it as part of a broader reset for trust in digital assets.　　“The market needed accountability after 2022,” said Raoul Pal. “Actions like this rebuild confidence, even if they come late.”　　The

US-Iran conflict disrupts Strait of Hormuz, crude oil prices soar 30%

Bitcoin Ethereum News　　RBOB gasoline futures surged 5%, and the Polymarket contract for WTI Crude Oil hitting $160 in April sits at 15% YES, driven by the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran disrupting shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.　　Market reaction　　The conflict has disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, cutting into global oil supply. Crude oil prices are up over 30% since February 28, with WTI now above $110 per barrel. The WTI Crude Oil April market reflects these shifts, and traders are pricing in further disruptions. The contract resolves on April 30, with odds of WTI hitting $160 at 15%.　　Why it matters　　The market is thin. A single large trade could move prices significantly, making the contract highly sensitive to news. While face-value volume suggests activity, actual USDC traded is what matters here, and minimal capital is needed to shift odds. The Strait of Hormuz closure threat is the primary driver; any escalation there directly feeds into this contract.　　The RBOB futures spike reflects traders expecting prolonged instability in oil supply chains, reacting to immediate supply concerns rather than speculative positioning. At 15¢, a YES share pays $1 if WTI hits $160 by April 30, a 6.7x return.　　What to watch　　Three things will determine

This breakout, combined with a reclaim of the psychological $0.10 level, marks a structural shift from a downtrend into a potential expansion phase. The move is supported by rising volume and a clear series of higher lows forming into the breakout, typically a sign of accumulating pressure before release.　　However, the current price action also shows signs of short-term exhaustion. RSI is pushing into overbought territory near 70, suggesting
