Wholesale Inflation Undershot Forecasts in May
Wholesale inflation undershot expectations last month, according to a Labor Department report that came a day after a weaker-than-forecast reading on consumer prices. Producer prices rose 0.1% in May from April, below the 0.2% rise economists polled by The Wall Street Journal had expected. Over the past 12 months, the producer-price index rose 2.6%, slightly above April's revised figure.

RH Swings to Surprise Profit Despite Tariff Pressures
RH swung to a profit in its fiscal first quarter despite the impact of tariffs on spending and the shakiest housing market in decades, pushing its shares higher after hours. The furniture retailer posted a profit of $8 million, or 40 cents a share, for the quarter ended May 3. That stacks against a loss of $3.6 million, or 20 cents a share, in the comparable quarter a year earlier. Analysts polled by FactSet had been expecting another loss.

Trump Shifts Deportation Focus, Pausing Raids on Farms, Hotels and Eateries
The Trump administration has abruptly shifted the focus of its mass deportation campaign, telling Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to largely pause raids and arrests in the agricultural industry, hotels and restaurants, according to an internal email and three U.S. officials with knowledge of the guidance. The decision suggested that the scale of President Trump's mass deportation campaign — an issue that is at the heart of his presidency — is hurting industries and constituencies that he does not want to lose. The new guidance comes after protests in Los Angeles against the Trump administration's immigration raids, including at farms and businesses. It also came as Mr. Trump made a rare concession this week that his crackdown was hurting American farmers and hospitality businesses. The guidance was sent on Thursday in an email by a senior ICE official, Tatum King, to regional leaders of the ICE department that generally carries out criminal investigations, including work site operations, known as Homeland Security Investigations. 'Effective today, please hold on all work site enforcement investigations/operations on agriculture (including aquaculture and meat packing plants), restaurants and operating hotels,' he wrote in the message. The email explained that investigations involving 'human trafficking, money laundering, drug smuggling into these industries are OK.' But it said — crucially — that agents were not to make arrests of 'non-criminal collaterals,' a reference to people who are undocumented but who are not known to have committed any other crime.
