 Shares of Hunter Maritime Acquisition Corp. burst 148% higher in afternoon trade Tuesday to a record high, a day after rocketing 97%, although the Marshall Islands-based special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) didn't release any news since last week. The 2-day total gain this week is now 389%. Volume swelled Tuesday to 400,000 shares (volume was 165,000 shares on Monday), compared with the full-day average of about 91,000 shares. The company has yet to respond to a request for comment. Prior to this week's surge, the previous record close, since the company went public in February 2017, was $10.90 on April 7, 2017. The company said early Friday that it had completed a merger with China-based financial technology company NCF Wealth Holdings Ltd. As part of that deal, Hunter issued 200 million Class A common shares to the former NCF Wealth shareholders at the closing, Hunter Maritime said it plans to change its name to NCF Wealth Holdings Ltd. in the "coming weeks." The stock has now run up nearly 5-fold (up 366%) over the past 12 months, while the S&P 500 has gained 6.0%.

The U.S. Federal Reserve should consider buying Treasury bills in the next phase of its balance-sheet program, said Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren. In a speech to the Credit Suisse Asian Investment Conference early Tuesday morning in Hong Kong, Rosengren said that one way to stimulate the economy in a "hypothetical" recession would be to push down long-term interest rates by selling Treasury bills from the bank's balance sheet. The only problem is that the Fed holds virtually no T-bills at the moment. "Thus, increasing the share of U.S. Treasury bills and more quickly lowering the duration of securities held [by the Fed] as assets may be an important part of the normalization process," Rosengren said. The Fed has been shedding assets from its balance sheet for almost two years but announced last week that this process will end in September. At some point next year, economists think the central bank will begin buying assets again. The Fed has not agreed yet on what mix of T-bills, or Treasury notes and bonds it might buy when that process starts.
