Foreign Investors Loaded Up on Treasury Securities in March Despite all the Turmoil in the Media 

And in April, their purchases of long-term securities at Treasury auctions increased. 

Buying US Treasury securities was all the rage among foreign investors in March, despite whatever turmoil there was in the media. All foreign investors combined, from central banks to private investors, increased their holdings of Treasury securities by $233 billion in March from February, and by $942 billion over the past 12 months, to a record $9.05 trillion (red in the chart).

The majority of what they bought were long-term Treasury securities, which increased by $133 billion to a record $7.63 trillion, according to data by the Treasury Department Friday afternoon (blue in the chart).

The buying was across the major holders, except for China and Hong Kong combined, and for Ireland. Of particular note: Canada’s holdings of Treasury securities spiked majestically in February and March, despite the tariffs and the ultra-sour mood in Canada about US-anything.

Increases in March, and total Treasury holdings:

United Kingdom: +$29 billion, to $779 billion

Luxembourg: unchanged, at $412 billion

Cayman Islands: +$37 billion to $455 billion

Ireland: -10 billion to $329 billion

Belgium: +$7 billion to $402 billion

Switzerland: +$21 billion to $312 billion.

Moody's downgrade of US rating may not dent stock markets much: Analysts

Global financial markets may not react much to Moody’s Ratings downgrade of United States' rating from AAA to Aa1, believe analysts, except for a knee-jerk reaction, if any. At the domestic level, Indian stock markets would be focussed more developments such as progress of monsoon, corporate results and economic data. Talks on tariff-related issues with the US will also impact sentiment.

 

Moody's downgrade, they said, was more to get the rating in sync with Fitch and S&P, who have already downgraded US' ratings. While Fitch had downgraded the rating to AA+ from AAA in August 2023, S&P had lowered US' rating back in August 2011.

US Fed chair warns of potential for 'more persistent' supply shocks

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Thursday warned of the possibility of "more persistent" supply shocks, as US central bankers met for talks against a backdrop of uncertainty kicked up by Donald Trump's tariff rollout."We may be entering a period of more frequent, and potentially more persistent, supply shocks -- a difficult challenge for the economy and for central banks," Powell told his colleagues in Washington, according to prepared remarks.

U.S. Import Prices Rose in April, Suggesting No Tariff Supply Shock

Import prices ticked up slightly in April, driven by higher costs for nonfuel goods even as fuel prices continued to slide, according to data released Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The Trump administration’s 10 percent universal tariff and additional targeted duties on over 60 countries were announced on April 2 and went into effect on April 5. The modest rise in import prices, particularly outside the fuel category, suggests that the duties have not significantly deterred U.S. purchases of foreign-made goods.

 

The increase in nonfuel goods prices, combined with steady import volumes, may indicate that tariff-related costs are being absorbed without major shifts in buying behavior, at least so far.

U.S. egg prices nosedived by 12.7% in April, marking the steepest monthly decline since March 1984, according to the latest Consumer Price Index data released Tuesday.

The average price for a dozen Grade A eggs fell to $5.12, down from a record $6.23 in March.

According to the latest U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics:

Five of the six major grocery store food group indexes decreased in April.

The fruits and vegetables index decreased 0.4 percent over the month and the cereals and bakery products index declined 0.5 percent.

Trump Just Got Britain To Hit China, UK Politicians Say 

British politicians are expressing alarm that the new U.S.–UK trade deal gives President Donald Trump the power to block Chinese investments in critical British infrastructure.

The deal announced last week requires the UK to “promptly meet U.S. requirements” to shield supply chains and “relevant production facilities” from foreign investment. If the European country does not meet these requirements, the U.S. can reimpose tariffs, effectively using trade pressure to dictate which countries can invest in the UK’s core infrastructure.

That clause triggered immediate backlash from British lawmakers and media, who say the U.S. now has a de facto “veto” over foreign investment — specifically Chinese money flowing into the UK’s steel and aluminum sectors.

 

“Washington wants the UK and others to peel away from Chinese trade and investment, especially in sensitive areas like steel,” said Allie Renison, a former trade official, speaking to the FT.

Treasury Secretary Bessent: “The Chinese Told Us Once Joe Biden Came into Office They Just Ignored Their Obligations”

China and the United States have agreed to reduce tariffs by May 14, with China retaining a 10% tariff on American goods while the US retains a 10% reciprocal tariff on Chinese goods. Additionally, China has agreed to help the US “take aggressive actions to stem the flow of fentanyl and other precursors from China to illicit drug producers in North America.”

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: In January 2020, President Trump produced a template. We had an excellent trade agreement with China, and the Biden administration chose not to enforce it. The Chinese delegation basically told us that once President Biden came into office, they just ignored their obligations. So we all already have a large framework.

The other thing to remember here, Jonathan, is that this is a pause down to 10 %. The April second level for China is 34 %. So we will be working to see where their final reciprocal number ends up. The negotiations are a combination of tariffs, non-tariff trade barriers, currency manipulation, and subsidies of labor and capital.

  Job cuts have been particularly high in the government sector, followed by retail and technology. DOGE actions, market/economic conditions, and restructuring have been major drivers of layoffs. US layoffs are at recession levels.

Since Donald Trump became president on January 20, 2025, approximately 345,000 jobs have been created, based on available data up to April 2025. This figure comes from a White House memo citing job creation through March 2025, with 228,000 jobs added in March alone. Additionally, February 2025 saw 151,000 jobs added, according to a jobs report. These numbers align with claims from the Trump administration, though they emphasize private-sector growth (54% in non-government sectors) and manufacturing gains (9,000 jobs in February).

“[Raising taxes on the top level] would be a tax on every small business, every job creator,” Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said Thursday on CNBC. “That’s what Kamala Harris campaigned on. That’s what she promised.”

“Right now, I’m not excited about the proposal,” Senate Finance Committee chairman Mike Crapo told conservative commentator Hugh Hewitt on Thursday. “But I have to say, there are a number of people in both the House and the Senate who are, and if the president weighs in in favor of it, then that’s going to be a big factor that we have to take into consideration as well.”

Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley, who frequently breaks with his party on economic issues, told the Daily Caller News Foundation on Thursday afternoon that he would be “fine” with the president’s millionaire tax proposal. He cautioned that at most two of his Senate GOP colleagues would join him in signing off on the tax hike.

  Trump signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017, which reduced taxes for many, including the wealthy. The law lowered the top individual income tax rate from 39.6% to 37%, doubled the estate tax exemption, and cut the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, disproportionately benefiting high earners and corporations. Data from the Tax Policy Center shows the top 1% of households received an average tax cut of about $50,000 in 2018, while middle-income households got around $900.  supporters claim it spurred economic growth.

California Gas Prices Could Rise 75% By End Of 2026: USC Analysis

California gas prices could skyrocket by as much as 75 percent by the end of 2026 with the expected shutdown of oil refineries in the state, according to an analysis released May 5 by a researcher at the University of Southern California (USC).

Regular gasoline prices could rise from an average of $4.82 in April 2025 to as high as $8.44 a gallon by the end of next year, said the report, authored by Professor Michael Mische at the Marshall School of Business.

Two Phillips 66 refineries in Los Angeles—about 8 percent of the state’s oil refining capacity—are slated to close by the end of this year. Valero Energy Corp. also announced last month it will shut down or restructure its Benicia refinery in the San Francisco Bay area—which accounts for about 9 percent of refining capacity—by April 2026, increasing concerns over gas prices and supply.

The USC analysis states that based on current demand, consumption, state regulations, and other factors, the refinery closures could result in a potential 21 percent drop in refining capacity from 2023 to April 2026.

The state of California is currently suing major oil companies over alleged deception regarding the risks of climate change and fossil fuel combustion.

New permits have plummeted 97 percent over the last five years, according to data from the California Department of Conservation. New drilling permits in the state dropped from 2,676 in 2019 to 86 in 2024.

Trump: We’ll see. We were losing a trillion dollars a year, now we’re not losing anything. That’s the way I look at it. We were losing with China on trade a trillion dollars a year– more actually. But let’s say a trillion. You know what we’re losing now? Nothing. That’s not bad.

When asked if he was willing to cease his tariffs against China for the purposes of negotiating, Trump gave a blunt one word answer. NO

EU Set To Tariff $113 Billion In U.S. Goods If Trade Talks Break Down  

The European Union is preparing to impose up to €100 billion ($113 billion) in tariffs on US goods if trade talks fail, according to a new report by Bloomberg this morning.

The draft list of retaliatory measures will be circulated to member states as early as Wednesday, with a one-month consultation period before finalization.

“These import taxes are unjustified and cause economic harm on both sides of the Atlantic,” said EU trade chief Maros Sefcovic. “This situation is not acceptable and we cannot afford to stay idle.”

The EU has already delayed €21 billion in planned tariffs after the US halved its reciprocal duties during ongoing negotiations. Talks, which began in earnest last month, have made little headway.

So the EU and now China have cut their rates, Trump building ammo to fire at the fed.

Fed holds rates steady as it remains in wait-and-see mode

Inflation is persistently running above the Fed’s 2% target, the labor market is showing resilience and there’s uncertainty over tariff policies

And I said, okay. So I get into the car and I'm thinking to myself, I was like, a tariff is like a tax on imported goods from outside of the country. So I Google where Hallmark manufacturers their sh*t from and it said Kansas, which is in the United States and I was like, okay, so then I call Hallmark. I said, hey, where do you guys make your ornaments and your cards and all your stuff? And she goes, the majority of our things to my knowledge are made in Kansas.

Everything is here made in the United States.” “Everything is made right here in the United States. I said okay so why are you guys raising the prices and not just on some items right like if you had like one or two items that are made and manufactured in other countries and have it shipped here.

Okay cool tariffs are probably gonna affect that and you raise the prices, okay whatever, this this is a generic list for everything (Hallmark is handing out ...

Chinese Companies Are Moving Their Manufacturing to the U.S. in Order to Avoid Trump’s Tariffs

(DCNF)—A growing wave of Chinese manufacturers are packing up and moving to the United States under the weight of President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Chinese goods.

“The United States accounts for nearly 95% of our orders. It’s not a market we can afford to lose,” Ryan Zhou, who runs a novelty gift business in eastern China, said, as reported by the SCMP. Zhou is opening a new facility in Dallas next month as a result of a 90% tariff on Chinese shipments to the United States.

Zhu Ning, a consultant who advises Chinese firms on overseas expansion, says he’s handled more than 100 relocation inquiries in the last four months alone, a level of interest that was unheard of before Trump’s tariffs kicked in, per the SCMP.

These are not American companies coming back, but they are Chinese companies coming in to the United States for the first time. For years, they undercut American workers by exploiting loopholes and subsidies, leading to an influx of cheap goods and synthetic goods. Now they are scrambling to stay afloat.

Now, Chinese petrochemical firms are starting to plant roots in the United States. Ye Yingmin, the founder of a chemical consulting firm in Beijing, says the United States has become a hotbed of interest for Chinese investment.

“We’re seeing Chinese firms preparing to invest heavily in places like Texas,” Ye told the SCMP.

What Recession: Goldman Now Expects Q2 GDP To Surge To 2.4%

 

We didn't have long to wait, and with most banks now quietly revising their economic estimates higher - certainly far more quietly than they were to declare that a recession is imminent - overnight Goldman became the flagbearer (bearing the white flag that is), when Hatzius published a report in which he now anticipates Q2 surging to 2.4% from -0.3%, which would make it higher than the average GDP print reported  since the start of 2022.

Not only that, but when discussing the -0.3% GDP print for Q1, Goldman said that "inventory investment was significantly understated, which means that GDP was significantly understated too." In short, Q1 GDP will be revised positive, and Q2 could push to 3% or higher!

Q1 GDP printed at -0.3% annualized, but frontloading of imports probably significantly understates this number. In theory, frontloading should be neutral because it boosts imports (which enter the calculation of expenditure-side GDP negatively) but raises consumer spending, business fixed investment, and inventory investment (which all enter positively) by an equal ...
