A look at the day ahead in U.S. and global markets from Mike Dolan With Middle East anxiety still brewing in the background, the red hot U.S. retail readout for March has underlined the sheer strength of the economic expansion there and is super-charging the dollar around the world. Against Tuesday's news of a spluttering March for China's economy, and a surprising rise in British jobless during the month, the exceptional U.S. performance stands out yet again and has catapulted the dollar to new highs for the year. China's first-quarter GDP annual growth of 5.3% did surpass expectations but March industry and retail growth missed forecasts, new home prices fell at their fastest pace in eight years and property investment fell almost 17% year-on-year.

For many people, the Lake District is – and only is – about walking. Well, it is almost impossible to step outside without your eyes being drawn to a mountain top. Indeed, the great fell-walker, Alfred Wainwright, identified 214 fells over 1,000 feet (around 300 metres) in the area, which should keep any list-ticker busy for several years. They range from the iconic Scafell Pike and Helvellyn to gentler (but just as rewarding in terms of views) fells such as Cat Bells.
Donald Trump's historic hush-money trial enters a second day on Tuesday, as lawyers try to select 12 New York City jurors to consider the guilt or innocence of the first former U.S. president to face criminal charges. Roughly half of 100 potential jurors questioned were dismissed after saying they could not impartially judge the polarizing businessman-turned-politician, who is mounting a comeback White House bid while battling four separate criminal cases. A New York native who now lives in Florida, Trump was a fixture in the city's tabloid press for decades before he won the presidency as a Republican in 2016.

The Lake District, undoubtedly, has some of Britain’s finest scenery and fell-walking. But it has much more – much (not surprisingly) as a consequence of its headline-grabbing views. Writers, poets and artists (such as Beatrix Potter and William Wordsworth) were drawn here, leaving fascinating homes to explore. Wealthy folk built grand houses and gardens to capitalise on the landscapes. Quirky things to do include a distillery tour, slate mine and pencil museum – but honestly nothing beats a lak

The Lake District is rich with atmospheric pubs and coaching inns, many seemingly unchanged for centuries – and that's their charm. Don't expect sleek looks and fancy sound systems; do expect toasty fires, well-worn chairs, beamed ceilings and a cheery scruffiness. In the remoter villages and dales many have beer gardens with cracking views. Most stock a good range of locally brewed beers, and several hold regular beer festivals. Look out for local gins; The Lakes Distillery, near Bassenthwaite
The clue to the region’s allure is in the name. A dozen or more lakes – sinuous, pretty, forbidding – vie for attention. Throw in craggy fells, tumbling waterfalls, timeless villages of whitewashed cottages, and the pull is irresistible. Even when it’s damp – and it frequently is – the scenery merely acquires a layer of misty romanticism. Its compact size (around 30 by 40 miles), together with its easy access (20 minutes from the M6), makes it one of the best places in Britain to enjoy the great
