Retailer Temu's Daily US Users Halve Following End of ‘De Minimis' Loophole
Daily US users of PDD Holdings' global discount e-commerce platform Temu fell by 58 percent in May, according to market intelligence firm Sensor Tower, one of many headwinds the e-retailer is facing amid a US-China trade war. Temu decided to slash ad spending in the US and shift its order fulfilment strategy after the White House on May 2 ended the practice known as 'de minimis' — which allowed Chinese companies to ship low-value packages to the United States tariff-free. Temu, along with fast-fashion giant Shein, had utilised that provision for years to drop-ship items directly from suppliers in China to consumers in the US, keeping prices low. Both Temu and Shein have suffered a sharp drop in sales growth and customer growth rates since US President Donald Trump announced sweeping trade tariffs, according to data collected by consultancy Bain & Company, but Temu's trends have been worse than its rival. ADVERTISEMENT Tariffs forced both platforms to raise prices, but Shein has been able to increase the amount of money spent per customer compared to a year ago, the data showed, while Temu has struggled. Temu did not respond to a request for comment on the drop in US daily users or the headwinds it faces in the US market. Engagement on Temu has dropped significantly following the end of the exemption, Morgan Stanley equity analyst Simeon Gutman said in a May note. 'While the tariff environment is uncertain, if the status quo remains for an extended period, we believe Temu's competitive threat will continue to weaken,' Gutman said. Last week, PDD's first quarter earnings fell short of growth estimates and executives told analysts on a post-earnings call that tariffs had created significant pressure for its merchants. They reiterated Temu's earlier pledge to keep prices stable and work with merchants across regions, referring to a shift to a local fulfilment model announced at the start of May. Temu's previous business model gave merchants responsibility for ordering and supplying their products while the China-based company managed most of the logistics, pricing and marketing. Now, Temu's merchants 'can ship individual orders from China to Temu-partnered US warehouses but they would need to address tariffs and customs charges and paper work,' according to a note from analysts at HSBC. Temu continues to handle fulfilling orders close to shoppers, setting prices and online operations. ADVERTISEMENT In last week's note, HSBC said that Temu's growth in non-US markets has picked up, with non-US users rising to 90 percent of its 405 million global monthly active users in the second quarter. 'New user uptick grew swiftest in less affluent markets,' analysts wrote.

Nuveen Closed-End Funds Declare Distributions and Nuveen Multi-Asset Income Fund Announces Change from Quarterly to Monthly Regular Distributions
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Several Nuveen closed-end funds have declared distributions. These funds represent investment strategies for investors seeking diversified sources of cash flow to prepare for and sustain their retirement income needs. For further information regarding fund distributions, including earnings, undistributed net investment income, and notices, please visit Shareholders can expect regular distribution information to be posted on on the first business day of each month. To ensure that our shareholders have access to the latest information, timely distribution and fund updates can be subscribed to at under the closed-end funds tab of the Product Documents section. You can also follow updates by navigating to the Closed-End Fund section of our Resource Center, located at The Nuveen Multi-Asset Income Fund (NYSE: NMAI) today announced the Board of Trustees of the Fund has approved a change in the fund's regular distribution frequency from quarterly to monthly beginning with the distribution payable on July 1, 2025. The change to a monthly regular distribution is intended to broaden the appeal of the Fund to cash flow focused investors. The fund is changing its regular distribution amount from $0.4175 per quarter to a regular monthly distribution amount of $0.1260, which reflects a roughly 9 percent reduction on a monthly equivalent basis. The fund's monthly distribution amount per share is listed in the table below. Monthly & Quarterly Distributions The funds listed in the tables below have adopted a policy to make regular monthly or quarterly cash distributions to holders of its common shares (stated in terms of a fixed cents per common share dividend distribution rate which may be set from time to time). Each Fund intends to distribute all or substantially all of its net investment income each year through its regular monthly or quarterly distribution and to distribute realized capital gains at least annually. In addition, in any monthly or quarterly period, to maintain its declared per common share distribution amount, each Fund may distribute more or less than its net investment income during the period. In the event a Fund distributes more than its net investment income during any yearly period, such distributions may also include realized gains and/or a return of capital. To the extent that a distribution includes a return of capital the NAV per share may erode. If a distribution includes anything other than net investment income, the fund provides a notice of the best estimate of its distribution sources at the time of the distribution which may be viewed at These estimates may not match the final tax characterization (for the full year's distributions) contained in shareholders' 1099-DIV forms after the end of the year. You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of the distribution. A distribution including return of capital does not necessarily reflect a Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with 'yield' or 'income.' The following dates apply to today's distribution declarations for the following closed-end funds: Ticker Exchange Fund Name Amount National Municipal NXP NYSE Nuveen Select Tax-Free Income Portfolio $0.0520 - NUV NYSE Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc. $0.0325 - NUW NYSE Nuveen AMT-Free Municipal Value Fund $0.0485 - NMI NYSE Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc. $0.0380 - NIM NYSE Nuveen Select Maturities Municipal Fund $0.0275 - NZF NYSE Nuveen Municipal Credit Income Fund $0.0795 - NMZ NYSE Nuveen Municipal High Income Opportunity Fund $0.0655 - NAD NYSE Nuveen Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0755 - NEA NYSE Nuveen AMT-Free Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0730 - NVG NYSE Nuveen AMT-Free Municipal Credit Income Fund $0.0790 - NMCO NYSE Nuveen Municipal Credit Opportunities Fund $0.0685 - NDMO NYSE Nuveen Dynamic Municipal Opportunities Fund $0.0620 - California Municipal NAC NYSE Nuveen California Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0735 - NKX NYSE Nuveen California AMT-Free Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0760 - NCA NYSE Nuveen California Municipal Value Fund $0.0290 - NXC NYSE Nuveen California Select Tax-Free Income Portfolio $0.0455 - New York Municipal NRK NYSE Nuveen New York AMT-Free Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0690 - NAN NYSE Nuveen New York Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0720 - NXN NYSE Nuveen New York Select Tax-Free Income Portfolio $0.0420 - NNY NYSE Nuveen New York Municipal Value Fund $0.0295 - Other State Municipal Funds NAZ NYSE Nuveen Arizona Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0725 - NMT NYSE Nuveen Massachusetts Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0710 - NMS NYSE Nuveen Minnesota Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0735 - NOM NYSE Nuveen Missouri Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0675 - NXJ NYSE Nuveen New Jersey Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0785 - NQP NYSE Nuveen Pennsylvania Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0780 - NPV NYSE Nuveen Virginia Quality Municipal Income Fund $0.0720 - Preferred and Income Securities JPC NYSE Nuveen Preferred & Income Opportunities Fund $0.0665 - JPI NYSE Nuveen Preferred and Income Term Fund $0.1660 - NPFD NYSE Nuveen Variable Rate Preferred & Income Fund $0.1675 - Taxable Municipals NBB NYSE Nuveen Taxable Municipal Income Fund $0.0965 - Floating Rate JFR NYSE Nuveen Floating Rate Income Fund $0.0850 - JQC NYSE Nuveen Credit Strategies Income Fund $0.0540 - Mortgage-Backed Securities JMM NYSE Nuveen Multi-Market Income Fund $0.0290 - JLS NYSE Nuveen Mortgage and Income Fund $0.1535 - Global High Yield Debt JGH NYSE Nuveen Global High Income Fund $0.1035 - Real Assets JRI* NYSE Nuveen Real Asset Income and Growth Fund $0.1335 - Taxable Fixed Income-Multi-Sector NPCT NYSE Nuveen Core Plus Impact Fund $0.1075 -$0.0115 Multi-Asset NMAI* NYSE Nuveen Multi-Asset Income Fund $0.1260 -$0.013167** Expand * The funds indicated above are currently relying on exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the '1940 Act'). ** Regular distribution frequency changed from quarterly to monthly. Amount reflects the change in per share amount over the prior distribution on a monthly equivalent basis. Quarterly Managed Distributions The fund's listed in the tables below have adopted a 'managed distribution' policy. The goal of each fund's managed distribution policy is to provide shareholders relatively consistent and predictable cash flow by systematically converting expected long-term return potential into regular distributions. Distribution sources may include net investment income, realized gains and return of capital. If a distribution includes anything other than net investment income, the fund provides a notice of the best estimate of its distribution sources at that time which may be viewed at These estimates may not match the final tax characterization contained in shareholders' 1099-DIV forms after the end of the year. Under a Managed Distribution policy, Nuveen closed-end funds seek to maintain a stable regular distribution amount that, over the long term, matches the fund's total distributions paid to its total return. Investors should not draw any conclusions about a fund's past or future investment performance from its current distribution rate or from the terms of its Managed Distribution Policy. Actual returns likely will differ from projected long-term returns, (and therefore a fund's distribution rate, also), at least over shorter time periods. Over a specific timeframe, a fund's net asset value will increase (if returns exceed distributions), or decrease (if distributions exceed returns), by the difference between actual returns and total distributions. A return of capital is a non-taxable distribution of a portion of the fund's capital. When a fund's returns exceed distributions, return of capital may represent portfolio gains earned, but not realized as a taxable capital gain. In periods when a fund's returns fall short of distributions, it will represent a portion of the investors' original principal unless the shortfall is offset during other time periods over the life of the investment (previous or subsequent) when the fund's total return exceeds distributions. The following dates apply to today's declarations: * The funds indicated above are currently relying on exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the '1940 Act'). Information regarding each fund's last 19(a) Distribution Notice (as of February 28, 2025) is also included below. This informational notice provides further details on the sources of fund distributions. The full text of this notice is also available on the Nuveen website via Distribution Source Estimates. The following table provides estimates of the Funds' distribution sources, reflecting year-to-date cumulative experience through the month-end prior to the latest distribution. The Funds attribute these estimates equally to each regular distribution throughout the year. Consequently, the estimated information as of the specified month-end shown below is for the current distribution, and also represents an updated estimate for all prior months in the year. It is estimated that JRS, QQQX, SPXX and BXMX have distributed more than their income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of the distributions may be (and is shown below as being estimated to be) a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with 'yield' or 'income.' The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this 19(a) Notice are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon each Fund's investment experience during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. Each Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report distributions for federal income tax purposes. More details about each Fund's distributions and the basis for these estimates are available on The following table provides information regarding distributions and total return performance over various time periods. This information is intended to help you better understand whether returns for the specified time periods were sufficient to meet distributions.
