Columbia University president faces vote of confidence as protests spread
Columbia's embattled president came under renewed pressure on Friday as a university oversight committee met to address her attempt two weeks ago to clamp down on protests that have roiled the Ivy League school and spread across the country and aboard. President Nemat Minouche Shafik faced an outcry from many students, faculty and outside observers for summoning New York police to campus on April 18 to dismantle an encampment of tents set up by protesters against Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza. Police arrested more than 100 people that day and removed the tents from the main lawn of the school's Manhattan campus, but the protesters quickly returned and set up the encampment again, narrowing Columbia's options on shutting down the protest.

C$ trims weekly gain as U.S. inflation remains sticky
The Canadian dollar edged lower against its U.S. counterpart on Friday as U.S. inflation data suggested the Federal Reserve could turn more hawkish compared to the Bank of Canada and some other major peers, but the currency still notched a weekly gain. The loonie was trading 0.1% lower at 1.3665 to the U.S. dollar, or 73.18 U.S. cents, with the currency pulling back after it touched its strongest level since April 10 at 1.3633. "It is getting harder for the Fed not to sound hawkish given the inflation data surprises since January," strategists at TD Securities, including Jayati Bharadwaj, said in a note.

UPDATE 1-US Labor Department corrects productivity data from 2019 through 2023
The U.S. Labor Department on Friday corrected productivity data from 2019 through 2023 after a computation error in off-the-clock hours worked ratios biased downward the labor hours levels underlying the productivity and costs data published last month. Worker productivity increased at a 3.3% annualized rate in the fourth quarter, corrected from the previously reported 3.2% pace. Rising worker productivity is helping to contain labor costs for businesses, which ultimately could lead to lower inflation over time.
