ФРС опинилася в пастці: інфляція не добита, а ринок облігацій вимагає дій. Головний стратег Bank of America вважає, що новому голові Кевіну Воршу доведеться підвищувати ставки, щоб заспокоїти довгий кінець кривої Treasury. Це незвичний сигнал — зазвичай ринок чекає зниження, а не паніки через можливе посилення. Одночасно хедж-фонд менеджер Боб Елліот називає поточний рівень TIPS «інвестиційною можливістю покоління» з гарантією інфляція плюс 3% річних. Але якщо ФРС справді піде на підвищення, реальні ставки зростуть, і тоді будь-які «бонди» з фіксованим купоном втратять капітал. Історично такі моменти передували різким корекціям на ризикових активах. Для українського інвестора це означає одне: долар залишається дорогим, а ставки високими. Куди б не дивився ринок — чи то крипта, чи то акції — перш ніж купувати, варто переконатися, що ти не стоїш на шляху паровоза з облігацій. #ФРС #Treasury #TIPS #Інвестиції #SP500 #Аналітика #virgroup https://vir.group/post/116975078472907485

Under a #law passed in 2020, the #Treasury Department can mint $1 coins during 2026 to mark the 250th anniversary “with designs emblematic of the U.S. semiquincentennial.” However, according to US code, “[o]nly the portrait of a DECEASED individual may appear on United States currency & securities” — a law that sprang from a Colonial-era tradition against putting current presidents on #US coins [distinguishing] themselves from the British monarchy. #Trump #narcissism #greed #vanity

Sickening #USMint to produce $1 gold-hued coin with Trump’s face on it, #treasury secretary says
 The coin’s face features #Trump alongside the phrase “In God We Trust.” It is encircled with the phrases “Liberty” & “1776-2026.” The flip side of the coin shows an eagle holding arrows in one talon & olive branches in the other. 
Since the start of his 2nd term, Trump & his allies have pushed to reissue federally created currency & documents to feature Trump’s name & face. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/07/15/us-mint-produce-1-coin-with-trumps-face-it-bessent-says/

English – The Conversation | Almost 3 million workers will get a 4.75% pay rise in July. But wages can’t catch up with inflation by John Buchanan, Professor in Working Life, Discipline of Business Information Systems, University of Sydney Business School, University of Sydney AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Around 2.8 million of Australia’s lowest‑paid workers will receive a 4.75 % award‑wage increase on 1 July 2026, with the roughly 100 000 lowest‑paid employees – many women in part‑time, casual roles in hospitality, health, retail and administration – getting an almost 6 % rise that lifts the national minimum wage to $26.44 an hour ($1 004.90 a week). Despite the boost, the Fair Work Commission’s expert panel warned that real earnings are still falling, noting a 5.9 % decline in purchasing power over the past five years as inflation has outpaced wage growth since June 2021. The panel deemed a larger real‑wage increase “impractical” amid ongoing price shocks from the Middle‑East conflict and forecasted inflation of up to 7.25 % if oil prices surge, leaving workers’ buying power under pressure and highlighting the need for future, gender‑focused wage adjustments.

English – The Conversation | Auction sales are sliding, banks are tightening loans. But is the budget really the only factor? by James Graham, Senior Lecturer in Economics, University of Sydney AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The recent Australian federal budget—introducing reforms to negative gearing and the capital‑gains‑tax discount—has prompted banks to tighten lending to property investors and has coincided with a dip in auction clearance rates, which fell to about 50‑60 % nationally, though this decline was already underway due to higher interest rates and economic uncertainty. While Treasury modelling suggests house‑price growth will be about 2 % slower than otherwise expected, other forecasts range from a modest 1 % fall to a steep correction of up to 10 %, reflecting the market’s pre‑budget softness. Prices remain unaffordable, with median home values more than eight times median household income, and the reforms are likely to affect investors’ preferred small‑apartment segment more than family homes on the suburbs’ edge. Consequently, the market’s recent cooling reflects both the budget’s policy changes and broader macro‑economic pressures, and it would be inaccurate to blame the budget alone for the current slowdown.

The Atlantic | I Now Believe Our National Debt Is a Problem by Jared Bernstein AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Jared Bernstein argues that the United States is now facing a genuine fiscal danger: public debt has swollen to roughly $31 trillion—about 100 % of GDP—and higher borrowing costs threaten to launch a self‑reinforcing “debt spiral.” While past growth rates outpaced interest on the debt, rising interest rates, larger deficits and the flood of new debt issuance mean that servicing costs are becoming the fastest‑growing part of the federal budget, pushing overall borrowing higher and raising rates for mortgages, auto loans and other credit. Bernstein attributes much of this trajectory to decades of politically driven tax cuts—first under Reagan, then under Bush and Trump—which have expanded the deficit without delivering the promised growth, and to a political climate where deficit spending is rewarded and fiscal restraint is penalized. He contends that sustainable borrowing must fund productive investments, not tax‑cut‑driven consumption, and calls for new revenue sources such as taxes on unrealized capital gains to address growing inequality and fund essential programs. Though the U.S. enjoys a unique advantage as the world’s reserve‑currency issuer, Bernstein warns that this leeway is limited; without a shift toward fiscal responsibility—stopping the “digging” that deepens the hole—the nation risks higher costs of living and a deteriorating economic outlook.

The Guardian | Ditched government projects lost taxpayer £6.6bn last year, watchdog says by Tom Knowles AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The public accounts committee warned that £6.6 billion of taxpayer money was written off in 2024‑25 after government departments cancelled projects or retired assets, citing the Rwanda deportation scheme, a planned road tunnel under Stonehenge and other initiatives as prime examples of waste. The Ministry of Defence recorded the biggest loss at £1.6 billion, while the Home Office and Department for Transport lost £290 million and £472 million respectively. The report also highlighted a growing £73.4 billion liability in various compensation schemes and persistent fraud, noting £9.3 billion in over‑payments by the Department for Work and Pensions, and called for stricter value‑for‑money scrutiny and action to curb waste and fraud.

US Top News and Analysis | Treasury yields resume climb as traders monitor inflation risks AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. U.S. Treasury yields rose on Thursday as investors refocused on persistent inflation pressures, with the 10‑year note climbing to 4.60%, the 30‑year bond to 5.13% and the 2‑year note to 4.07%. The increase followed a sharp pull‑back the previous day after global bond yields hit multi‑decade highs, and came amid renewed concerns that a potential Iran‑related conflict could drive inflation higher, prompting many Federal Reserve officials to signal further rate hikes. Oil prices also edged higher, with West Texas Intermediate at $99.61 a barrel and Brent at $106.42, reflecting Middle‑East tensions that are weighing on energy markets. Traders await upcoming U.S. housing‑starts and building‑permits data for April, expected to show a modest slowdown in new construction.

📊 Bitcoin залишається нижче 200-денної ковзної середньої, і аналітики пов'язують це з динамікою доходності Treasuries. Тим часом Strategy (STRC) нарощує оберти: акції зафіксували рекордний денний обсяг торгів у $1.5 млрд, а компанія придбала ще 11,707 BTC. Це демонструє, що інституційний апетит до біткоїна не згасає, навіть коли ціна консолідується. Кореляція між криптою та традиційними ринками залишається високою. Високі дохідності Treasuries традиційно тиснуть на ризикові активи, і біткоїн не виняток. Водночас агресивні накопичення з боку Strategy через інструменти на кшталт Stretch (після того як випуск конвертованих нот та ATM-продажі ускладнилися) свідчать про довгострокову віру в актив — попри короткостроковий технічний тиск. Ринок перебуває в точці біфуркації: або дохідності почнуть знижуватися (що дасть імпульс біткоїну), або ж тиск з боку макроекономіки посилиться. Інвесторам варто стежити за даними щодо інфляції та сигналами ФРС — саме вони визначать наступний напрямок. #Bitcoin #Strategy #Treasury #Crypto #Макроекономіка #Інвестиції #ФРС #virgroup https://vir.group/post/116577891132204835

English – The Conversation | Will this budget really make housing fairer for more Australians? It’s a good start by Aruna Sathanapally, Chief Executive, Grattan Institute AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The 2026 federal budget marks a bold step toward a fairer Australian housing market by tackling long‑standing tax distortions and boosting supply. Treasury’s reforms target the personal‑income‑tax system’s heavy reliance on wages and its generous concessions for wealth, introducing a 30 % minimum tax on future capital gains and trust distributions and beginning to phase out the capital‑gains discount from 2027, while preserving existing negatively‑geared investments. These changes aim to reduce the advantage enjoyed by high‑income property investors—who have earned roughly A$700,000 in tax benefits since 2000 compared with about A$12,400 for typical earners—and are projected to cut the deficit by more than $20 billion a year and modestly lower house prices (about 2 %). To counteract the potential slowdown in construction, the budget funds a $2 billion Local Infrastructure Fund to ease restrictive planning rules and improve productivity, offsetting an estimated loss of 35,000 homes over the next decade. On the expenditure side, the government imposes significant savings, most notably a 2 % annual growth cap on the NDIS worth over $36 billion, positioning the budget to achieve a surplus by the mid‑2030s, though it stops short of extending cost‑of‑living relief or fuel‑excise cuts, leaving many working‑age families without additional support. Overall, the budget tilts the balance toward younger Australians seeking their first home, signalling a shift toward inter‑generational fairness and a more resilient economy.

Agi: Dazi, colloqui Usa-Cina in Corea del Sud AGI - Il vice primo ministro della Cina, He Lifeng, terrà colloqui commerciali con funzionari Usa in Corea del Sud la prossima settimana in vista del previsto vertice tra i leader Xi Jinping e Donald Trump. Lo riportano media statali cinesi secondo i quali le due parti si incontreranno martedì e mercoledì per "consultazioni su questioni commerciali di interesse comune". Il ministero del Commercio cinese in un comunicato ha poi annunciato che il vice primo ministro, He Lifeng, il massimo funzionario economico di Pechino, parteciperà a "consultazioni su questioni economiche e commerciali di interesse comune" in Corea del Sud martedì e mercoledì della prossima settimana. Il messaggio di Bessent Il segretario del Tesoro statunitense, Scott Bessent, in un post su X ha scritto: "Mercoledì farò tappa a Seul per un colloquio con il Vice Primo Ministro cinese He Lifeng, prima di proseguire per Pechino per il Vertice dei Leader tra il Presidente Trump e il Presidente Xi". Il vertice Trump-Xi Trump si appresta a visitare la Cina per un vertice di alto livello con Xi, in cui i leader delle due maggiori economie mondiali dovrebbero concentrarsi sull'allentamento delle tensioni commerciali e su Taiwan, con la guerra in Medio Oriente che incombe sullo sfondo. Dazi e tregua commerciale Mentre Washington e Pechino si sono imposte reciprocamente dazi sulle esportazioni un anno fa, Trump e Xi hanno concordato una tregua commerciale di un anno durante il loro incontro di ottobre in Corea del Sud. I negoziatori chiave Sia Trump sia Bessent sono stati i principali negoziatori per Cina e Stati Uniti su tutte le questioni commerciali ed economiche. È probabile che i colloqui mettano a punto gli ultimi dettagli sugli annunci che verranno fatti durante il vertice Trump-Xi. Le tappe in Giappone Bessent aveva inoltre affermato che martedì avrebbe avuto colloqui preliminari a Tokyo con il Primo Ministro giapponese Sanae Takaichi e il Ministro delle Finanze Satsuki Katayama, insieme ad altri rappresentanti del settore pubblico e privato. Sicurezza economica "La sicurezza economica è sicurezza nazionale e non vedo l'ora di partecipare a una serie di incontri proficui per promuovere l'agenda economica 'America First' del Presidente Trump", ha dichiarato Bessent. Tariffs, talks US-China in South Korea AGI - Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng will hold commercial talks with US officials in South Korea next week ahead of the anticipated summit between leaders Xi Jinping and Donald Trump. This is reported by Chinese state media, according to which the two sides will meet on Tuesday and Wednesday to “consult on matters of mutual interest.” The Chinese Ministry of Commerce subsequently announced that Vice Premier He Lifeng, Beijing’s top economic official, will participate in “consultations on economic and trade issues of mutual interest” in South Korea on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. Bessent’s Message US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent wrote on X: “I will be in Seoul on Wednesday to meet with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, before continuing to Beijing for the Leaders Summit between the President Trump and the President Xi.” The Trump-Xi Summit Trump is preparing to visit China for a high-level summit with Xi, where the leaders of the world’s two largest economies are expected to focus on easing trade tensions and on Taiwan, with the war in the Middle East looming in the background. Tariffs and Trade Truce While Washington and Beijing had imposed tariffs on each other’s exports a year ago, Trump and Xi agreed to a one-year trade truce during their October meeting in South Korea. Key Negotiators Both Trump and Bessent were the main negotiators for China and the United States on all trade and economic issues. The talks are likely to fine-tune the details of announcements that will be made during the Trump-Xi summit. Steps in Japan Bessent had also stated that he would have preliminary talks on Tuesday with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama, along with other representatives from the public and private sectors. Economic Security “Economic security is national security and I look forward to participating in a series of fruitful meetings to promote President Trump’s ‘America First’ economic agenda,” Bessent said. #SouthKorea #Lifeng #XiJinping #DonaldTrump #Chinese #HeLifeng #Beijing #Treasury #ScottBessent #Seoul #Trump #China #Taiwan #theMiddleEast #Washington #Bessent #theUnitedStates #Japan #Japanese #SanaeTakaichi #Finance #SatsukiKatayama https://www.agi.it/economia/news/2026-05-11/dazi-colloqui-usa-cina-36991576/

💷 The #UK Department for Transport’s Greener Bus Tool is an Excel-based appraisal toolkit that helps local #transport authorities assess the value for money of investing in zero-emission #buses and minibuses, including battery electric and hydrogen vehicles. It calculates key measures such as the benefit-cost ratio (BCR), net present value and carbon reduction impacts, using guidance from the HM #Treasury Green Book and DfT transport analysis guidance. The tool compares proposed schemes against a “do minimum” scenario, usually replacing buses with Euro 6 diesel models, to estimate additional costs and benefits. It assesses impacts on operators, government finances, air quality, greenhouse gas emissions and wider society. Users input data including vehicle and infrastructure costs, annual mileage and funding sources. The tool also supports sensitivity testing and risk analysis to help improve scheme design and assess uncertainty. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/greener-bus-tool
