Better steam engines increased, rather than reduced, coal use—an example of the Jevons paradox. With AI, the same dynamic may apply, potentially driving greater demand for analysis, coding, drafting, design, service, and research. Learn more in this week's from our CIO Office.

In the latest Potomac Perspective, Brian Gardner, Stifel's Chief Washington Policy Strategist, updates views on housing legislation and the CLARITY Act. The chances that Congress will pass the House's version of the housing bill (which is more benign for the build-to-rent industry than the Senate bill) have risen, and the prospects for the Senate's bill have diminished. He maintains the view on the prospects for the CLARITY Act and notes some new complications for passing the bill in 2027.

Financial stress is the number one driver of declining emotional health in America. But it doesn't have to be that way. As a Financial Advisor, I can help you reduce uncertainty by building a clear, personalized plan tailored to your goals.

As noted in the Northwestern Mutual's 2026 Planning & Progress Study, 71% of Americans with a financial advisor said they felt financially secure, while only 38% without an advisor agreed.

The Senate Banking Committee approved the CLARITY Act, 15-9. Two committee Democrats joined all 13 Republicans in advancing the bill to the Senate floor. The vote was clearly a positive for the bill's prospects, but it also carried some warning signs. The bill's prospects improved, but we think by less than what others perceive to be the case.

The House could vote next week on a revised housing bill. The updated bill includes a restriction, favored by the Trump administration, to limit the ownership of single-family homes by institutional investors. It is also more flexible on build-to-rent than is the Senate's housing bill. The House bill also includes several non-housing provisions which will probably be DOA in the Senate.

The Senate Banking Committee is scheduled to mark up cryptocurrency legislation (the CLARITY Act). Despite efforts to reach a compromise on the Stablecoin yield issue, as well as other matters, there may not be sufficient bipartisan support to pass the legislation through the full Senate. The bill will likely pass the committee, but the odds that the CLARITY Act will become law in 2026 remain low.
