World shares are mixed after modest gains put Wall St close to records
A person stands in front of an electronic stock board showing Japan's Nikkei index at a securities firm Tuesday, June 3, 2025, in Tokyo. (AP Photo/Eugene Hoshiko) Asian shares were mostly higher Tuesday while European benchmarks gave up early gains. The futures for the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.5%. Markets in China advanced despite a report showing manufacturing activity slowed in May, even after China and the U.S. paused tariff hikes to allow time for talks. In early European trading, Germany's DAX was nearly unchanged at 23,950.36, while the CAC 40 in Paris shed 0.4% to 7,709.40. Britain's FTSE 100 slipped 0.2% to 8,757.97. Adding to uncertainty in a region already enduring war in Ukraine, Poland elected Karol Nawrocki, a conservative historian and staunch nationalist, Monday as its next president in a closely watched vote that signaled a resurgence of right-wing populism in the heart of Europe. The survey of Chinese purchasing managers, or PMI, by the financial media group Caixin showed factory output, new export orders, purchasing activity and staffing all declined last month. Incoming new work contracted at the quickest pace in over two-and-a-half years. the report said. The situation is 'a body blow to the backbone of China's economy: small and mid-sized exporters now caught in a brutal vice grip between faltering global demand and a Washington-led tariff regime that's more carrot-and-stick diplomacy than ceasefire,' Stephen Innes of SPI Asset Management said in a commentary. However, as is often the case, investors shrugged off the bad news with the assumption that it might raise the likelihood of more market support from Beijing. Hong Kong's Hang Seng jumped 1.5% to 23,512.49, while the Shanghai Composite index rose 0.4% to 3,361.98. Tokyo's Nikkei 225 edged 0.1% lower to 37,446.81. South Korean markets were closed for a snap presidential election triggered by the ouster of Yoon Suk Yeol, a conservative who now faces an explosive trial on rebellion charges over his short-lived imposition of martial law in December. In Australia, the S&P/ASX 200 climbed 0.6% to 8,466.70. In Taiwan, the Taiex gained 0.6%, while India's Sensex lost 0.5%. Beijing and Washington dialed back trade friction slightly as the U.S. extended exemptions for tariffs on some Chinese goods, including solar manufacturing equipment, that U.S. industries rely on for their own production. The U.S. Trade Representative extended those exemptions, which were due to expire on May 31, by three months through Aug. 31. The U.S. side said President Donald Trump was expecting to speak with Chinese leader Xi Jinping this week. A Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson said Tuesday that they had no information on that. Just a few weeks ago, the United States and China agreed to pause many tariff hikes that had threatened to drag the U.S. economy into a recession. On Monday, U.S. stock indexes drifted closer to their records following a stellar May, Wall Street's best month since 2023. The S&P 500 rose 0.4% and the Dow industrials added 0.1%. The Nasdaq composite climbed 0.7%. Trump has been warning that U.S. businesses and households could feel some pain as he tries to use tariffs to bring more manufacturing jobs back to the country, and their on-and-off rollout has created lots of uncertainty. In other dealings early Tuesday, the yield on the 10-year Treasury fell to 4.42% from 4.44% late Monday. Worries remain over how much debt the U.S. government will pile on due to plans to cut taxes and increase the deficit. U.S. benchmark crude oil was up 27 cents at $62.79 per barrel. Brent crude, the international standard, picked up 18 cents to $64.81 per barrel. The U.S. dollar rose to 142.90 Japanese yen from 142.71 yen. The euro slipped to $1.1414 from $1.1443.

China's factory activity contracts in May, but there are signs of improvement
BEIJING (AP) — China's factory activity contracted in May, according to an official survey released on Saturday, although the decline slowed from April as the country reached a deal with the U.S. to slash President Donald Trump's sky-high tariffs. China's purchasing managers index rose from 49.0 in April to 49.5 in May, the National Bureau of Statistics said. PMI is measured on a scale from 0 to 100, where 50 marks the cutoff between expansion and contraction. Meanwhile, the manufacturing index showed growth in the sector, although the index measuring new orders remained under 50 despite some improvement. National Bureau of Statistics senior statistician Zhao Qinghe said some companies with U.S. business reported accelerated resumption of foreign trade orders, and there was an improvement in import and export conditions. The U.S.-China deal, reached earlier this month, cuts Trump's tariffs from 145% to 30% for 90 days, creating time for negotiators from both sides to reach a more substantive agreement. China also reduced its taxes on U.S. goods from 125% to 10%. But the remaining tariffs are still higher than they were before Trump took office, and businesses and investors face uncertainty about whether the truce will last. Trump said Friday that he will no longer be 'Mr. NICE GUY' with China on trade, declaring in a social media post that the country had broken an unspecified agreement with the United States. Monday Mornings The latest local business news and a lookahead to the coming week. He later said in the Oval Office that he will speak with Chinese President Xi Jinping and 'hopefully we'll work that out,' while still insisting China had violated the agreement. Over the past week, tensions between Beijing and Washington also intensified after the U.S. said it would start revoking visas for Chinese students studying in the country. China has lodged a protest with the U.S. over the matter, calling the decision unreasonable.
