Where’s the Inflation?

https://thefederalist.com/2025/05/13/after-media-claimed-trump-was-turbocharging-price-hikes-inflation-hits-4-year-low/

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) report released Tuesday revealed that inflation rose just 2.3 percent year-over-year in April — the lowest annual increase since February 2021, when the Biden administration was in office.

According to economist for the Heritage Foundation E.J. Antoni, food prices in April declined for the first time since November of 2020 — “the last time Trump was president.”

 

Core inflation, which excludes the more volatile categories of food and energy, “remained stable at 2.8% year-over-year,” according to Wall Street Pit.

Today we got the reason why the borrowing need of the US was surprisingly lower than previously expected, and it was revealed in the latest Treasury Monthly Statement laying out the US government’s monthly deficit… or rather surplus. Yes, we are so used to describing the sum-total of the US government’s monthly income statement as a deficit (i.e., more spending than revenue) that it has become automatic to assume that every month the US will spend more than it brings in. Only this time that wasn’t the case.

Presenting Exhibit A: in April, the US Treasury generated a $258.4 billion surplus after last month’s $160.5 billion deficit; this the second biggest surplus on record, with just the $308 billion bumper surplus in 2021 bigger.

TikTok Sent EU User Data To CHina

European Union regulators are reportedly alleging that the social media platform TikTok illegally transferred the personal data of its European users to China. This accusation raises significant privacy concerns and potential violations of EU data protection laws like GDPR.

The claim suggests that user information collected within the EU was accessible from or moved to servers located in China. This access could potentially expose sensitive data to Chinese authorities or entities.

EU regulatory bodies are investigating or taking action against TikTok’s data handling practices. The situation highlights ongoing tensions regarding data security, digital sovereignty, and the operations of foreign technology companies within the European Union.

China Blinked First

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/aaaaand-its-gone

Sudden and significant reversal in a market trend or policy stance, framing it as “China blinked first.” While the exact subject requires accessing the article, the title structure suggests a major development where China has backed down or changed course on an economic or trade issue.

And now, thanks to the FT we learn that we have China’s capitulation to thank for all of this. 

Recall that on April 25 we reported something which no other US media outlet carried, namely that a “Chinese Delegation Spotted Entering Treasury Department” in a meeting shrouded in secrecy as China “Demanded All Photos Be Deleted.”

All except for the one below:

Naturally, we suggested that this was an overture to China offering an olive branch to the Trump admin on US soil in hopes of reaching a trade deal, a speculation which the TDS-crowd fumed over.

It turns out we were right, and as the FT writes, “the first meeting to break the US-China trade deadlock was held almost three weeks ago in the basement of the IMF headquarters, arranged under cover of secrecy.”

US Treasury secretary Scott Bessent, who was attending the IMF spring meetings in Washington, met China’s finance minister Lan Fo’an to discuss the near complete breakdown in trade between the world’s two biggest economies, according to people familiar with the matter.

The previously unreported encounter was the first high-level meeting between US and Chinese officials since Donald Trump’s inauguration and the launch of his tariff war. The Treasury declined to comment on the secret meeting.

The talks culminated this weekend in Geneva with Bessent and He Lifeng, China’s vice-premier, agreeing a ceasefire that would slash respective tariffs by 115 percentage points for 90 days.

All of the above is correct, except that the encounter was “previously unreported” – we reported here first on April 25 that on April 24 the Chinese were seen entering the Treasury department under a shroud of secrecy. :

 

 

90 Day Pause

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/goldman-trade-truce-set-ignite-red-hot-front-running-chinese-exports-us

The so-called “breakthrough” trade deal between the U.S. and China on Monday slashes reciprocal tariffs and sets off a 90-day cooling period—one that Goldman analyst Philip Sun says will likely spark a surge of imports into U.S. ports. Far from the doom-and-gloom headlines pushed by leftist corporate media about “empty ports” and “empty shelves,” the incoming round of frontrunning by importers exposes those narratives as little more than misinformation and disinformation. 

The 90-day pause begins on Wednesday. This means President Trump’s 145% tariffs on Chinese imports will be slashed to 30%, while Beijing will reduce its levies from 125% to 10%. The breakthrough in trade talks follows U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s high-stakes meeting with Chinese trade representatives in Switzerland over the weekend.

Freight forwarders, such as CMA CGM SA, called the 90-day pause and the move down in the tariff rate between China and the U.S. as “good news.” 

A Maersk spokesman told Bloomberg: “Right now, our customers have gotten 90 days of clarity with reduced tariffs, and we are working hard to help them make the best use of this window.”

“As many exporters might have held up their shipments to the US in April, the substantial tariff rollback is likely to spur a wave of pent-up exports,” Nomura chief China economist Lu Ting wrote in a note on Monday. 

 

Trump – Art of the Deal

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/watch-trumps-lavish-welcome-saudi-arabia-mbs-breaks-protocol-greets-him-plane

REWORK – The article reports on the exceptionally warm and elaborate reception given to former President Trump during a visit to Saudi Arabia. It notes that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) reportedly broke standard protocol by greeting Trump directly at his plane upon arrival.

This highly visible and personal welcome is highlighted as a sign of the strong relationship between Trump and the Saudi leadership. Such gestures in diplomacy are often seen as indicative of close political or business ties.

The following represent just a few of the many transformative deals secured in Saudi Arabia:

    • Saudi Arabian DataVolt is moving forward with plans to invest $20 billion in AI data centers and energy infrastructure in the United States.
    • Google, DataVolt, Oracle, Salesforce, AMD, and Uber are committing to invest $80 billion in cutting-edge transformative technologies in both countries.
    • Iconic American companies including Hill International, Jacobs, Parsons, and AECOM are building key infrastructure projects like King Salman International Airport, King Salman Park, The Vault, Qiddiya City, and much more totaling $2 billion in U.S. services exports.
    • Additional major exports include GE Vernova’s gas turbines and energy solutions totaling $14.2 billion and Boeing 737-8 passenger aircraft for AviLease totaling $4.8 billion.
    • In the healthcare sector, Shamekh IV Solutions, LLC will be investing $5.8 billion, including a plant in Michigan to launch a high-capacity IV fluid facility.
    • Investment partnerships include several sector-specific funds with a strong emphasis on U.S. deployment—such as the $5 billion Energy Investment Fund, the $5 billion New Era Aerospace and Defense Technology Fund, and the $4 billion Enfield Sports Global Sports Fund—each channeling substantial capital into American industries, driving innovation, and creating high-quality jobs across the United States.

Trump

Not only did Trump lambast neocon “nation-building” in the region, he more or less vowed never to pursue the kinds of neocon misadventures that spilt American blood and treasure over the past 25 years in the insane pursuit of creating western liberal democracies in the Middle East.

 

In stark and unmistakable terms, the president reminded the world of the abject failure of decades of neocon and liberal interventionist U.S. foreign policy under both Democrat and Republican leadership. He specifically called out the trillions of U.S. tax dollars wasted in a totally unsuccessful attempt to turn Iraq and Afghanistan into western-style democracies as part of the global war on terror.
