  • Core inflation eases in December: The areas where costs remain high

    The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported core inflation to have cooled in December, the first easing since July 2024.

  • Luxury groups pin hopes on US as China weakness persists

    Global luxury goods companies are expected to pull out all the stops this year to persuade U.S. shoppers to splash out on diamond bracelets, quilted leather handbags and other designer fashions, given forecasts for more market weakness in China. Retail executives are looking to tap into wealth in the United States linked to the strong stock market and rise in cryptocurrencies, while potential tariffs from U.S. President-elect Donald Trump could support the dollar, raising Americans' purchasing power for European luxury goods. U.S. credit card spending on luxury brands in December improved, turning positive for the first time in more than two years, rising 1% year-on-year, based on data from Citi, thanks to better sales of leather goods and clothing.

    President-elect Donald Trump's pick to lead the CIA told senators during his confirmation hearing Wednesday that the nation's premier spy agency must do a better job of staying ahead of global threats posed by Russia, China and other adversaries. John Ratcliffe, who served as director of national intelligence during Trump's first term, told lawmakers that if confirmed, he would push the agency to do more to harness technologies like artificial intelligence and quantum computing while also expanding the agency's use of human intelligence collection. “We’re not where we’re supposed to be,” Ratcliffe told the Senate Intelligence Committee.

  • Fed officials say latest inflation data helpful as they await Trump policies

    ANNAPOLIS, Maryland (Reuters) -Federal Reserve officials said data released on Wednesday showed U.S. inflation was continuing to ease even as they noted heightened uncertainty in the coming months as they await a first glimpse of the incoming Trump administration's policies. The final read on the Consumer Price Index for 2024, closing out the Biden administration and its battle with a pandemic-related breakout of fast-rising prices, showed price increases excluding food and energy costs eased to 3.2% in December from 3.3% in the prior month. With the pace of housing inflation notably in decline, economists expect an upcoming report on the separate Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index for December to be weak, perhaps even falling below the Fed's 2% target.

    Israel and Hamas have agreed an historic ceasefire to end 15 months of war in Gaza, The Independent understands, a conflict in which almost 50,000 people have been killed and has threatened to draw the whole of the Middle East in.
