Odaily Planet Daily reported that Huatai Securities research report believes that at noon on January 31, 2026, Beijing time, the U.S. government will shut down again after October last year. However, unlike last October, the two parties have reached most of the compromises. The shutdown is caused by the House of Representatives being unable to vote in a timely manner due to a recess, leading to a brief government shutdown. The government is expected to reopen as early as February 2 after the House passes the appropriations resolution. Since this shutdown occurs on a weekend and is short-lived, only some institutions will close, and it is unlikely to impact the economy, markets, or data releases. However, repeated government shutdowns highlight the division and political polarization within the United States. In the medium to long term, this may accelerate the de-dollarization process.
