Asian shares rally ahead of US-China trade talks
HONG KONG (AP) — Shares rose in Asia on Monday ahead of the second round of trade talks between Washington and Beijing, due later in the day in London. Tokyo's Nikkei 225 gained 1.1% to 38,137.09 as the government reported that the Japanese economy contracted by 0.2% in the January-March quarter. In South Korea, the Kospi added 1.9% to 2,865.52. Chinese markets rose even though the government reported that exports slowed in May, growing 4.8% from a year earlier after a jump of more than 8% in April. Exports to the United States fell nearly 10% compared with a year earlier. China also reported that consumer prices fell 0.1% in May from a year earlier, marking the fourth consecutive month of deflation. Hong Kong's Hang Seng picked up 1.4% to 24,119.64 while the Shanghai Composite Index climbed 0.4% to 3,397.13. Australia's market was closed for a public holiday. On Friday, stocks gained ground on Wall Street following a better-than-expected report on the U.S. job market. The gains were broad, with every sector in the S&P 500 rising. That solidified a second consecutive winning week for the benchmark index, which has rallied back from a slump two months ago to come within striking distance of its record high. The S&P 500 rose 1% to 6,000.36. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 1% to 42,762.87 while the Nasdaq gained 1.2%, to 19,529.95. Technology stocks, with their outsized values, led the broad gains. Chipmaker Nvidia jumped 1.2% and iPhone maker Apple rose 1.6%. Tesla rose 3.7%, regaining some of the big losses it suffered on Thursday when Trump and Musk sparred feverishly on social media. Circle Internet Group, the U.S.-based issuer of one of the most popular cryptocurrencies, rose 29.4%. That adds to its 168% gain from Thursday when it debuted on the New York Stock Exchange. U.S. employers slowed their hiring last month, but still added a solid 139,000 jobs amid uncertainty over President Donald Trump's trade war. The closely watched monthly update reaffirmed that the job market remains resilient, despite worries from businesses and consumers about the impact of tariffs on goods going to and coming from the U.S. and its most important trading partners. President Donald Trump's on-again-off-again tariffs continue to weigh on companies. Lululemon Athletica plunged 19.8% after the maker of yoga clothing cut its profit expectations late Thursday as it tries to offset the impact of tariffs while being buffeted by competition from start-up brands. Lululemon joins a wide range of companies, from retailers to airlines, that have warned investors about the potential hit to their revenue and profits because of tariffs raising costs and consumers potentially tightening their spending. Hopes that Trump will lower his tariffs after reaching trade deals with other countries are a main reason the S&P 500 has rallied back so furiously since dropping roughly 20% two months ago from an all-time high. The economy is absorbing the impact from tariffs on a wide range of goods from key trading partners, along with raw materials such as steel. Heavier tariffs could hit businesses and consumers in the coming months. The U.S. economy contracted during the first quarter. Recent surveys by the Institute for Supply Management, a trade group of purchasing managers, found that both American manufacturing and services businesses contracted last month. On Tuesday, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development forecast 1.6% growth for the U.S. economy this year, down from 2.8% last year. The uncertainty over tariffs and their economic impact has put the Federal Reserve in a delicate position. In other trading early Monday, U.S. benchmark crude oil lost 3 cents to $64.55 per barrel. Brent crude, the international standard, gave up 5 cents to $66.42 per barrel. The U.S. dollar retreated to 144.42 Japanese yen from 144.85 yen. The euro edged higher, to $1.1422 from $1.1399.

Morning Bid: Markets pin hopes on London trade talks
A look at the day ahead in European and global markets from Rocky Swift Optimism abounds in the markets that the United States and China will reach a rapprochement in London today, after a phone call last week between leaders of the world's two largest economies turned down the heat on their protracted rift over trade. Both sides have strong incentives to ratchet down the rhetoric and find agreement as their economies remain tightly linked, although U.S. President Donald Trump has shown interest in decoupling them. The market reacted favourably on Friday to U.S. jobs data that showed less of a slowdown than feared, temporarily easing concerns about the trade war's fallout. But that was counterbalanced today when China's dour producer price data added to evidence that the spat is taking its toll. Asian shares rebounded sharply on Monday, reacting to Friday's exuberance on Wall Street. Equity futures pointed to a slightly lower open in Europe, while U.S. stock futures, the S&P 500 e-minis, slid 0.2%. On the trade front, representatives from the U.S. and China, due to meet at a still undisclosed location in London, will attempt to revive a preliminary trade agreement reached in Geneva last month. Trump is threatening to impose triple-digit tariffs on Chinese goods, while Beijing's key leverage is its near stranglehold on rare earth minerals that are critical to many high-tech sectors. Perhaps persistence is the key. Japan's chief trade negotiator Ryosei Akazawa is planning a sixth round of talks in Washington this week, Kyodo News reported. The economic and earnings slate is practically empty today. The next major figures to watch out of the U.S. will be inflation data on Wednesday, followed later in the week by producer price figures, weekly jobless claims and the University of Michigan report on consumer sentiment. The Fed is in a blackout period ahead of its June 18 policy decision. The markets were also keeping an eye on events in Los Angeles, where National Guard troops are facing down protesters demonstrating over Trump's immigration policies. Videos showed part of a major freeway in the city blocked by activists. California on its own is the world's fourth-largest economy, exceeding Japan's gross domestic product, and Trump deployed guardsmen to its biggest city to counteract what the White House described as "chaos, violence and lawlessness". Governor Gavin Newsom called Trump's reaction "the acts of a dictator". Key developments that could influence markets on Monday: - U.S. wholesale inventory data for April. - Mexico reports inflation and producer price data for May.

Dow futures dip as stocks eye record highs ahead of U.S.-China talks and inflation reports
Stock futures ticked lower on Sunday night as the S&P 500's recent rally has brought it within 2.4% of its all-time high reached in February, before President Donald Trump's trade war ravaged markets. That comes ahead of a big week, which will see another round of U.S.-China trade talks and key inflation reports. U.S. stock futures pointed down on Sunday night ahead of a big week that will be highlighted by more U.S.-China trade talks and fresh inflation data. A strong jobs report on Friday added more fuel to a rally that has lifted the S&P 500 to within 2.4% of its all-time high reached in February, before President Donald Trump's trade war sank markets. Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 44 points, or 0.10%. S&P 500 futures slipped 0.15%, and Nasdaq futures eased 0.23%. Tesla stock may see more downside after Trump said his relationship with CEO Elon Musk is over. The yield on the 10-year Treasury slipped less than 1 basis point to 4.506%. The dollar fell 0.11% against the euro and 0.15% against the yen. While Wall Street may not react to Trump sending National Guard troops to Los Angeles, his overall immigration crackdown represents a labor-supply shock to the economy that has implications for the dollar. Gold dipped 0.28% to $3,337.20 per ounce. U.S. oil prices climbed 0.08% to $64.63 per barrel, and Brent crude gained 0.05% to $66.50. On Monday, U.S. and Chinese officials will meet in London to begin another round of trade talks after agreeing last month in Geneva to pause their prohibitively high tariffs. Since that de-escalation in the trade war, both sides have accused the other reneging on their deal. For the U.S., a key sticking point has been the availability of rare earths, which are dominated by China and are critical for the auto, tech, and defense sectors. Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council, sounded upbeat on Sunday that the London talks could result in a resolution. 'I'm very comfortable that this deal is about to be closed,' he told CBS News. Meanwhile, new inflation data are due as the Federal Reserve remains in wait-and-see mode to assess how much Trump's tariffs are moving the needle on prices. The better-than-expected jobs report on Friday eased fears of a recession, taking pressure off the Fed to cut rates to support the economy. That means that any rate cuts may have to come as a result of cooler inflation. The Labor Department will release its monthly consumer price index on Wednesday and its producer price index on Thursday. Also on Wednesday, the Treasury Department will issue its monthly update on the budget, offering clues on how much debt the federal government is issuing amid concern about bond supply and demand.
