Wall Street lifted by upbeat US jobs report and Tesla rebound
Wall Street closed higher on Friday, buoyed by a better-than-expected US jobs report and a rebound in Tesla Motors shares, although concern about the Federal Reserve's rates policy remained. The Labour Department reported on Friday that the American economy added 139,000 jobs in May, slower than previous months but beating analyst estimates, with the unemployment rate holding steady at 4.2 per cent. It also indicated that wages grew at a solid pace, which may mean the Fed is unlikely to cut interest rates – something that US President Donald Trump has demanded from the US central bank. Mr Trump on Thursday increased the pressure on Fed chairman Jerome Powell, urging him to cut interest rates by a full percentage point. Mr Powell so far has resisted the calls from the White House and maintains that policy decisions will be data dependent. He met Mr Trump at the White House last week and was firm that rate decisions will be made 'as required by law'. 'The labour market's resilience puts the Fed in a difficult spot: inflation pressures remain sticky and the cooling many expected simply hasn't materialised in the data that matters most,' said Nigel Green, chief executive of Dubai-based financial services firm deVere Group. 'This report puts another nail in the coffin for any talk of rate cuts in the summer. The Fed has said time and again it needs to see weakness in the labour market to move. This isn't weakness. It's strength with staying power.' Investors also continue to monitor the tariff situation between the US and China. After imposing substantial tit-for-tat levies on imports, the world's two biggest economies agreed to a detente on their trade war on May 12. Talks appear to be progressing: Mr Trump on Thursday spoke with Chinese President Xi Jinping, and on Friday Mr Trump said trade officials from Washington and Beijing will meet in London on Monday to resume discussions. 'Investors couldn't care less. Dips in equity markets are still seen as opportunities to buy cheaper. And while the data is fun to watch, it remains secondary to the blind bullishness,' said Ipek Ozkardeskaya, a senior analyst at Swissquote Bank. 'That's the takeaway from the post – April 2 rally: the world may be wobbling, but markets march on,' she added, referring to the day Mr Trump announced his sweeping global tariffs programme. On Wall Street, the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average both settled 1 per cent higher, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite gained 1.2 per cent. Tesla, whose stock plummeted 14 per cent on Thursday in response chief executive Elon Musk's escalating public feud with Mr Trump, rebounded to close 3.7 per cent higher. The Texas-based company's shares rose by as much as 6 per cent. For the week, the S&P was up 1.5 per cent, the Dow added 1.2 per cent and the Nasdaq rose 2.2 per cent. Year-to-date, the indices are up 2 per cent, 0.5 per cent and 1.1 per cent, respectively. In Europe, markets were mostly up after the US jobs report eased fears of an economic slowdown. London's FTSE 100 closed up 0.3 per cent, boosted by banking stocks. Paris' CAC 40 added 0.2 per cent, while Frankfurt's DAX retreated 0.1 per cent. Earlier in Asia, major indices were mixed, with Tokyo's Nikkei 225 adding 0.5 per cent, Hong Kong's Hang Seng index declining 0.5 per cent and the Shanghai Composite closing flat. In commodities, oil prices jumped nearly 2 per cent on Friday to post their first weekly gain in three weeks amid hopes for a US-China deal on tariffs and the jobs report. Brent rose 1.73 per cent to settle at $66.47 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate closed 1.91 per cent higher at $64.58 a barrel. Gold, meanwhile, fell more than 1 per cent on investor concerns that the US jobs report won't sway the Fed to cut rates soon. The precious metal, a hedge against inflation, declined nearly 1.3 per cent to $3,311.70 an ounce.

iOS 26 and counting: What to expect at Apple's WWDC event next week
Apple is expected to change the numbering of its operating systems at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference next week, among other big announcements. The tech major's next iOS will bear the '26" suffix, to reflect the 'season' they will be used in – in this case, 2025-2026 – according to a recent Bloomberg report. The new version of the iOS is typically released with the next generation of iPhones, which are expected in September. The WWDC, Apple's main event for software, is also expected to introduce new iterations of its operating systems for the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Watch, TV and Vision Pro. We look at what to expect at the Cupertino-based company's software showcase. From 18 to 26 The renaming of Apple's operating system would mean that instead of iOS 19, iPadOS 19, macOS 16, tvOS 19, watchOS 12 and visionOS 3, we can expect '26" on all of them. The move won't make a major impact, but from a consistency standpoint, it makes sense. Apple's move is also reminiscent of when Samsung Electronics' flagship Galaxy S phone model leapt from S10 to S20 in time for the year 2020. Apple Intelligence boost The company's generative AI service, Apple Intelligence, has garnered mostly positive reviews, centred on it being seamless across the Apple ecosystem. At the WWDC, Apple is expected to build on its existing features and introduce new ones, but it remains unclear what those will be. Reports suggest that the main Apple Intelligence update will be focused on the Health app. That would mean enhanced insights and, possibly, better integration in sharing health reports to medical professionals and more collaboration with health care companies and providers. It would not be a surprise to see Apple aligning with more health-orientated entities as it has done so with other segments, including fitness and gaming. The company had made it clear even before the release of Apple Intelligence that its services would be rolled out in phases. That typical of Apple – test the waters and make the necessary adjustments. We can also expect a smarter Siri. Live translation on AirPods Pro 2 Another possibility that has been floating around for a while is live translation on the AirPods Pro 2 – a tool that would come in handy for those who travel a lot. Apple already has a Translate app on iPhones and iPads, supporting spoken and written inputs in 21 languages. The Translate app provides convenience – but being able to get through language barriers without having to whip out your device would be a welcome addition. Biggest design update in a dozen years Multiple reports have suggested that iOS 26 will bear an all-new look, which would be the biggest design upgrade – 'one of the most dramatic', Bloomberg says – since iOS 7 in 2013. Changes are expected on icons, interfaces and fonts to transform the user experience. Apple already did a good job on iOS 18, introducing a new look by giving icons light, dark and tinted appearances. We wouldn't mind some new emojis, either taking Apple's total towards the 4,000 mark. Any hardware? Though typically a software event, Apple has, in recent years, introduced new devices at the WWDC. That seems unlikely this year, as iPhones and Apple Watches traditionally come in September, while iPads and Macs have been updated in phases in recent months. If Apple is to unveil new hardware, it will most likely be AirPods, specifically a new Pro model, which was last updated in 2022. This would sit comfortably alongside possibility of live translation. As for Macs, the only plausible update would be for the Mac Pro, although given the time since the last version it is highly unlikely; the last Mac Pro update was released at WWDC 2023. And it wouldn't be a WWDC without the usual developer software updates – ARKit, HealthKit, Metal, etc – to power Apple's vast hardware line-up.
