Stunning inflation report shows first tariff effects and sends Wall Street on a wild ride
Consumer prices ticked up last month, rising 2.4 percent in May compared to the same time last year. Although it is a slight increase on the month before, when prices rose 2.3 percent, the increase of 0.1 percent suggests inflation is actually slowing as it is a smaller jump than previous months. The latest figures brought a sigh of relief to Wall Street where analysts had forecast prices to rise closer to 3 percent. The S&P 500 rose 0.4 percent and the Nasdaq jumped 0.6 percent in future trading on the back of the news. The Department of Labor statistics are a surprise to some economists who have expected Trump's tariffs to have more of an inflationary effect so far. Major retailers such as Walmart have said they are raising prices to offset the cost of tariffs. However, the latest report shows that other major consumer prices are down, including smartphones which fell 1.6 percent and airline fares down 2.7 percent. Traders now believe there is a 75 percent chance the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by September, compared to 60 percent yesterday, Bloomberg reported. 'Ultimately, if tariff rates are up, and core goods prices aren't up by as much as the consensus thought it implies more margin squeeze at retailers and less price pass through,' Neil Dutta from Renaissance Macro told Bloomberg.

Trump says US will get magnets and rare earth minerals in China trade deal
President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that the United States will get magnets and rare earth minerals from China under a new trade deal and that tariffs on Chinese goods will go to 55%. In return, Mr Trump said the US will provide China 'what was agreed to', including allowing Chinese students to attend American colleges and universities. Advertisement Several global brands are among dozens of companies at risk of using forced labour through their Chinese supply chains because they use critical minerals or buy minerals-based products sourced from the far-western Xinjiang region of China, an international rights group said on Wednesday. The report by the Netherlands-based Global Rights Compliance says companies including Avon, Walmart, Nescafe, Coca-Cola and paint supplier Sherwin-Williams may be linked to titanium sourced from Xinjiang, where rights groups allege the Chinese government runs coercive labour practices targeting predominantly Muslim Uyghurs and other Turkic minorities. Hotan, in western China's Xinjiang region (Andy Wong/AP) The report found 77 Chinese suppliers in the titanium, lithium, beryllium and magnesium industries operating in Xinjiang. It said the suppliers are at risk of participating in the Chinese government's 'labour transfer programmes,' in which Uyghurs are forced to work in factories as part of a long-standing campaign of assimilation and mass detention. Advertisement Commercial paints, thermos cups and components for the aerospace, auto and defence industries are among products sold internationally that can trace their supply chains to minerals from Xinjiang, the report said. It said that companies must review their supply chains. 'Mineral mining and processing in (Xinjiang) rely in part on the state's forced labour programmes for Uyghurs and other Turkic people in the region,' the report said. The report came as China and the United States, the world's two largest economies, said that they have agreed on a framework to get their trade negotiations back on track after a series of disputes that threatened to derail them. Advertisement The two sides on Tuesday wrapped up two days of talks in London that appeared to focus on finding a way to resolve disputes over mineral and technology exports that had shaken a fragile truce on trade reached in Geneva last month. Asked about the report, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said that 'no-one has ever been forcibly transferred in China's Xinjiang under work programmes'. 'The so-called allegation of forced labour in China's Xinjiang region is nothing but a lie concocted by certain anti-China forces. We urge the relevant organisation to stop interfering in China's internal affairs and undermining Xinjiang's prosperity and stability under the guise of human rights,' ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said. The named companies did not immediately comment on the report. Advertisement A UN report from 2022 found China may have committed crimes against humanity in Xinjiang, where more than one million Uyghurs are estimated to have been arbitrarily detained as part of measures that the Chinese government said were intended to target terrorism and separatism. The Chinese government has rejected the UN claims and defended its actions in Xinjiang as fighting terror and ensuring stability. In 2021, then-US president Joe Biden signed a law to block imports from the Xinjiang region unless businesses can prove the items were made without forced labour. The law initially targeted solar products, tomatoes, cotton and apparel, but the US government recently added new sectors for enforcement, including aluminium and seafood. Advertisement Many of China's major minerals corporations have invested in the exploration and mining of lithium, a key component for electric vehicle batteries, in Xinjiang, Global Rights Compliance said. Xinjiang is also China's top source of beryllium, a mineral used for aerospace, defence and telecommunications, its report said. A recent report by the International Energy Agency said that the world's sources of critical minerals are increasingly concentrated in a few countries, notably China, which is also a leading refining and processing base for lithium, cobalt, graphite and other minerals.

World Bank issues grim economic forecast, citing Trump's trade wars
The World Bank has slashed its forecasts for the US economy in the wake of President Donald Trump's tariffs. The bank cut its forecast for US growth in 2025 from its January prediction of 2.3 percent down to 1.4 percent. Economists said 'a substantial rise in trade barriers' — referring to Trump's aggressive trade policies — were to blame for the downgrade. The new predictions suggest the US will grow half as fast as it did last year when it hit 2.8 percent. The consequences will hit everyday Americans hard. A sluggish economy typically leads to slower job growth or layoffs, like those already underway at Walmart, General Mills, and Microsoft. Stocks could also fall, hitting regular Americans' 401(K)s and investments. The World Bank, which provides grants and low-rate loans to poor economies, also pared back its expectations for global growth, dropping it 2025 forecast from 2.7 percent to 2.3 percent. World Bank chief economist Indermit Gill (pictured) said the global economy has now missed its chance for a 'soft landing,' the best possible outcome of lowering inflation without causing a recession. 'The world economy today is once more running into turbulence,' Gill wrote in the Global Economic Prospects report. 'Without a swift course correction, the harm to living standards could be deep,' he warned. The polices have caused many countries to impose reciprocal tariffs on US goods. The result is higher prices for ordinary Americans as retailers pass on the increased costs to consumers. American consumers are already feeling the bite with the cost of cars rising and major grocery chain's such as Walmart raising their prices. Last week the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development also warned that the US and global economies are headed for a downturn because of Trump's trade policies. The Paris-based organization slashed its growth forecast for the year down to 2.9 percent compared to 3.3 percent last year. The group, which is comprised of 38 wealthy nations, said protectionism is also driving up inflation. The OECD said inflation will tick up in the US this year, likely preventing the Fed from cutting rates until 2026.
