The first-ever SpaceX debt offering is lifting rates across the curve and serving to offset the bullish influence of declining oil prices as fixed-income watchers grow wary of the substantial cash needed to fund technological ambitions. As firms race to the credit markets to help provide the several trillion dollars allocated per year towards AI, there\u2019s mounting pressure on a Treasury complex that requires ongoing inflows to sustain borrowing levels against the backdrop of expanding deficits. Additionally, lower energy costs are having a lessening impact on yields, as Wall Street is convinced of a global inflation problem after Fed Chair Kevin Warsh communicated the central bank\u2019s commitment to its 2% target. Emblematic of the worries is the 2-year maturity jumping to a 16-month high as investors gear up for potential monetary policy tightening, but duration is rising at a slower pace, resulting in the flattest spread in over a year as participants question how many benchmark increases could realistically be in the pipeline. In stocks, cyclically oriented areas are working, as the small-cap Russell 2000 soars to a fresh record amidst 7 of the 11 major sectors gaining. The Dow is advancing as well, although the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 reversed into losses with the Magnificent 7 basket performing especially poorly. Elsewhere, volatility protection instruments are catching bids and commodities are dropping for the most part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Yield<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Economy Can\u2019t Handle Too Many Rate Hikes   <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The refusal for the long-end of the Treasury complex to climb in proportion to its shorter tenor counterparts illustrates the perception that the economy can\u2019t handle too many rate hikes from here. The flatter yield curve is essentially informing Wall Street that monetary policy tightening would result in slowing activity, as growth prospects would weaken in light of a stricter central bank. Still, the fixed-income space could be underestimating an acceleration driven by AI technologies that can flourish even in an environment of increasingly restrictive financial conditions. But the equity market today is somewhat concerned about the rising competition of firms approaching debt markets for huge sums of cash to invest in modern infrastructure with uncertain capital returns. Meanwhile, tomorrow’s Flash PMIs will offer a near real-time look at the momentum across both the manufacturing and services sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

International Roundup<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

China Maintains Key Interest Rates<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The People\u2019s Bank of China yesterday left its benchmark unchanged as expected, marking the 13th consecutive month with one- and five-year loan prime rates (LPR) at 3% and 3.5%, respectively. While China\u2019s manufacturing has benefited from strong global demand for high-tech products, the country is struggling with weak domestic demand and declining home prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Foreign Direct Investment Is Mixed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Foreign direct investment in China\u2019s economy last month was up 5.9% year over year (y\/y) but was down 8.6% during the first five months of this year when compared to the same period of 2025, according to the Ministry of Commerce. Among industries, China\u2019s high-tech manufacturing, with an increase of 19.4% year to date, led the growth. The United Arab Emirates and Malaysia had the largest increases in deploying capital in China with expansions of 285.5% and 108.6%. Switzerland and the US followed with increases of 49.4% and 17.3%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canada Annual Inflation Hits 29-Month High<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Prices in Canada were up 3.2% y\/y in May, the highest jump depicted by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in 29 months with pain at the pump being the primary culprit although groceries were also considerably more expensive. Economists anticipated a 3% ascent. The monthly climb, at 0.5%, was a tad hotter than the 0.4% April print. When excluding food and energy, the month-over-month (m\/m) version was 0.3% higher when compared to the preceding month\u2019s 0.1% gain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within the annualized headline result, gasoline was up 33.2% following April\u2019s 28.6% results. May gasoline prices were the highest since June 2022. Fresh vegetables, furthermore, were 9% more costly than in the year-ago period following the 45.2% April rise. When extracting energy from the CPI, the gauge was up 2.2% y\/y following the preceding month\u2019s 2% read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within the m\/m rankings, the following categories climbed by the stated amount:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Recreation, education and reading, 1.3%<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Transportation, 1.2%<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Food, 0.4%<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Alcoholic beverages, tobacco products and recreational cannabis, 0.3%<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Health and personal care, 0.1%<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Clothing and footwear, 0.1%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Household operations, furnishing and equipment bucked the trend with a 0.2% decline. Shelter also fell with a 0.1% drop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Europe Econ Sentiment Depicts Pockets of Improvement<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The overall flash Economic Sentiment Index (ESI) for May climbed 0.3 points to 93.5 in the euro area, lingering considerably below its long-term average of 100, but pockets of minor improvement surfaced, according to the Directorate-General for Economic and Financial Affairs within the European Commission. The Employment Expectations Indicator, (EEI), for example, moved from 91.9 to 94.7 while the Consumer Confidence gauge ascended 1.3 points to -17.7. Similar to the board ESI, both levels are substantially below their respective long-term averages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    UK PM Resigns<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who along with his Labour Party swept to power in a landslide victory less than two years ago, resigned from his leadership post this morning. The anticipated announcement comes after the Labour Party did poorly in recent local elections while polls continue to show the leaders\u2019 support falling. Starmer and Finance Minister Rachel Reeves have been battling within their own party regarding fiscal policies while the country’s borrowing costs have climbed. Andy Burnham, a previous Labour Party mayor for Greater Manchester who recently won a seat in Parliament, is expected to make a bid for the leadership role. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    UK Trade Groups Warns of Offshoring<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Manufacturers in the UK are increasingly considering offshoring in response to high energy costs due to the country\u2019s dependence on imports of natural gas, according to Make UK.  In the survey, manufacturers said that higher energy costs resulting from the Iran-US war are twice the average found in continental Europe and four times higher than the US. The UK is highly dependent on energy imports. Additionally, one fourth of manufacturers have either planned to offshore or have already done so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
