Mike Armstrong and Paul Lane discuss U.S. and China try to undo devastating trade curbs. Inflation expectations declined across all horizons, NY Fed says. Lawmakers traded stocks heavily as Trump rolled out ‘Liberation Day' tariffs. Moody's sounds alarm on private funds for individuals. A college degree is no longer a risk-free investment.

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news Trump's back-down on tariffs came as corporate decision-makers concluded reshoring isn't a good idea. There are few moves to bolster US-based production.But first today, Fed boss Powell spoke overnight and he focused on the challenges they face keeping inflation under control. He noted long-term interest rates are now notably higher, driven mainly by risk premiums rather than shifts in inflation expectations, while estimates of the longer-run neutral policy rate have also risen. He noted the US economy has changed a lot since their last review and warned that inflation might become more volatile in future due to more frequent supply shocks, which will make it harder for central banks to achieve price stability. Throughout his remarks, Powell also stressed the critical role of anchored inflation expectations. Meanwhile US initial jobless claims slipped slightly to 205,200 but that was what seasonal factors accounted for and what analysts were expecting. There are now 1.783 mln people on these benefits, a reduction from last week, but it is up almost +100,000 from this time last year.Maybe surprisingly, American producer prices fell by -0.5% in April, following a revised flat reading in March and defying market expectations of a +0.2% increase. This was the first decline in the PPI since October 2023 and the sharpest drop since April 2020, during the early pandemic period. The retreat was largely driven by a -0.7% fall in service costs, the largest since data collection began in December 2009, and that was due to a -1.6% drop in margins for trade services, because businesses are absorbing much of the impact from higher tariffs. PPI is now up +2.4% from a year ago.Industrial production in the US didn't rise as expected in April. In fact factory output fell -0.4%, reversing the increase in March. And the prospects of shifting significant production "back to the US" seem remote in many diverse categories.There were two regional factory surveys released for May overnight, and both declined somewhat. The NY Fed's Empire State survey reported another modest decline. The Philly Fed's survey for their core rust belt region recorded a sharp improvement, better than the improvement expected. But it is still in decline.In a sign of the times a major lithium battery recycler has entered bankruptcy.US retail sales were little-changed in April, following the upwardly revised +1.7% front-loaded pre-tariff surge in March. 2024 gains mean they are +5.2% higher than year-ago levels.The NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index in the US fell sharply in May to its the lowest since November 2023 and well below what was expected. Home builders are glum. Current sales conditions fell, sales expectations in the next six months edged lower, and they said traffic of prospective buyers has dropped recently.Meanwhile, housing starts in Canada jumped +30% in April from March and that was well above what was expected. It was their most since June 2023. US tariffs on Canadian softwoods is likely making Canadian house building costs lower.Across the Pacific, Japanese machine tool orders rose +7.7% in April from a year ago, but that growth was a slowing from +11.4% growth in March. But it was the seventh consecutive month of rising machine tool orders. Local orders dropped -5.4% from a year earlier while foreign orders jumped +13.3% on the same basis. India's exports were nothing special in April, certainly not reflective of a rising industrial power. They slipped from March but they were up +9.0% from a year ago due to gains in prior months.In Europe, industrial production rose by +2.6% in March from February, marking the strongest increase since November 2020 and rising from a good +1.1% gain in February. The result easily beat market expectations of a +1.8% rise. The surge was driven primarily by a rebound in output of durable consumer goods.In Australia, they added +75,500 jobs in April, almost 47,500 of them full-time positions. Their employed workforce grew +2.75% in the past year. Their jobless rate eased to 4.1% from 4.3% (although staying at 4.1% on a seasonally adjusted basis which is the metric others report). Inflation pressure plus this strong jobs report might have the RBA re-thinking the wisdom of a rate cut.Bulk freight rates fell -7.0% in the last week to be -18.5% lower than year-ago levels. Container freight rates were also -18.0% lower than year ago levels, but they did rise +8% last week with a surge in outbound cargoes from China across the Pacific on the sudden 'pause' in tariff hikes.The UST 10yr yield is at 4.45%, down -8 bps so far today.The price of gold will start today at US$3218/oz, and up +US$43 from yesterday.Oil prices are -US$2 lower today at just over US$61.50/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is just on US$64.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 58.7 USc, down -40 bps from yesterday at this time. Against the Aussie we are down -10 bps at 91.7 AUc. Against the euro we are down -30 bps at 52.5 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just over 67.2 and down a net -40 bps from this time yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$104,020 and up +0.8% from yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has remained modest at just under +/- 1.2%.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news of more signaled tariffs on imports into the US, specifically on metals. A new inflation surge seems inevitable, as does less trade and low growth - in other words we need to prepare for a new bout of stagflation.But first, American consumer inflation expectations for the year ahead remained at 3% for a third consecutive month in January, according to the NY Fed national survey. This is far more sanguine than the University of Michigan survey we noted yesterday which reported a 4.3% year ahead level. The NY Fed survey noted that households now expect to pull back their spending in the year ahead, however.The Musk takeover of US spending priorities is leaving many losers, including US farmers. In Canada, a survey by their central bank of about 30 significant financial "market participants" at the end of 2024 showed that those polled expect the Canadian 3% current policy interest rate still has another -50 bps of cuts to come, but that it will level out at 2.5% from mid-year for the next long period. This survey also showed an expectation of a +1.8% or +1.9% economic growth rate over the next two years, although the largest risk to that is from policy uncertainty in the US.And staying in Canada, falling residential values are leaving some very tough positions for buyers who bought off the plan, and now find the contract price now far exceeds what a bank would value their purchase for a mortgage.In India, the one-two public policy push to "go for growth" with tax cuts and a lower policy interest rate, isn't getting plaudits from financial markets. They have driven the Indian currency to a record low against the USD, although it has come off that in the past few hours. (But of course some of that is due to the overall strength of the USD.)In the face of new US tariff threats, some targeted metals prices have risen. Essentially they are pricing in the higher prices American buyers will have to pay. Aluminium is at a two year high and running at long term high levels, steel comes in may varieties, but rebar steel hasn't moved much because that has China-focused demand. Other commodity-metals are flat, but specialty metal prices are rising. And copper is back near its all-time highs suddenly at just over US$10,000/tonne (NZ$17,750). These shifts higher will underpin global inflationary impulses that no-one can avoid.And we should probably note that the new aggressive new US Gaza policies probably mean there will be no end to the risks of using the Suez Canal, extending its inflationary impact.The UST 10yr yield is at 4.49%, down -1 bp from yesterday at this time.The price of gold will start today at just under US$2900/oz and up +US$40 from yesterday. This will be a new record closing if it holds this level.Oil prices are up +US$1.50 at just under US$72.50/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is now at US$76/bbl and back to week-ago levels.The Kiwi dollar is now at 56.5 USc and down -10 bps from this time yesterday.  Against the Aussie we are down -20 bps at 90 AUc. Against the euro we are unchanged at just under 54.8 euro cents.

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news all eyes are on the US non-farm payrolls report due out tomorrow, and market activity is hesitant in advance of that.US jobless claims came in at +210,000 last week, a good decrease from the prior week. But it was not as large a drop as the seasonality suggests it should have been, so it counts as a 'rise' on the headline basis. Continuing claims were 1.66 mln and that fall was more than the seasonal effects expected.There are still very few announced job cuts in this huge labour market.So that will probably mean the US November non-farm payrolls report will be a positive one when it is released tomorrow morning. Markets currently expect +200,000 more jobs filled.The US Fed's November Beige Book describes a moderately expanding overall economy.US exports came in at US$266 bln in October, about the 2024 monthly average even though they slipped from the prior month. But they were +1.9% higher than the same month a year ago, in a rising trend that started in June 2023. Imports slipped in October too from the prior month, but these also stayed at about the 2024 monthly average. The US trade deficit in both goods and services reduced in October and runs at under -3% of GDP, a level easily absorbed in such a large country, especially one whose currency is the standard for international trade.Canadian exports and imports both rose in October, and their trade deficit - although on a rising trend - has an even smaller impact on their economy.In Europe, although it slipped in October from September, the volume of EU retail trade was up +2.1% from the same month a year ago. This is perhaps a surprising show of resilience for an economy that is being widely panned as struggling.On the global logistics front, perhaps we should note the Global Supply Chain Pressure Index that the NY Fed monitors. In November, it eased slightly. After the sharp pandemic pressures it eased noticeable in April 2023 and has seen no return since then, despite the ups and downs of things like the major canal stresses. The global logistics network has been remarkably resilient, the pandemic excepted.And last week, global container freight rates rose +6% from the prior week to be +150% higher than pre-pandemic levels still. There were sharp rises in the China-to-Europe trade, more than enough to offset sharp fall in the Chine-to-USWC trade. Going the other way there was a very sharp drop in bulk cargo rates, down -22% from the prior week to their lowest since September 2023 and actually back to levels first reached in 1987.The UST 10yr yield is now at just on 4.18%, down -2 bps from yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$2637/oz and down -US$15 from this time yesterday.Oil prices are -US$1 lower at US$69.50/bbl in the US while the international Brent price is now just under US$72.50/bbl. These low prices forced OPEC to delay its planned output hike in January.The Kiwi dollar starts today at 58.7 USc and unchanged from this time yesterday. Against the Aussie we up +10 bps at 91.2 AUc. Against the euro we have dipped -10 bps to 55.6 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 68.3, and again unchanged from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$100,825 and up +6.0% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been very high at +/- 4.7%. At one point it reached US$103,000, at another back under $100,000.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora.

The boys are finally back together again. Haroon has welcomed the birth of his second daughter and Saied is back from his family's Hawaiian vacation. To start the show Chris, Saied and Haroon wanted to emphasize their thoughts and prayers are with the people of Maui who have been impacted by this tragic and devastating fire. After which, they jump in to Ray Dalio's interesting recession perspective. Saied gives a complete rundown of July's inflation numbers and Chris continues to declare that the JOLTs report is manipulated and can't be trusted. Something interesting is happening in Minneapolis, home prices hit a record high in 60% of U.S. markets and credit card debt hits a record high at $1 trillion dollars. Then, despite Chris thinking that asking for reviews was a colossal waste of time, we got several new amazing honest five star reviews. This of course continues to prove that 50% of the time Chris is wrong, every time.
