In the US, Shelter CPI has now moved down from a peak of 8.2% in March 2023 (highest since 1982) to 4.0% today (lowest since November 2021).

Given its long lag vs. real-time rental data, a continued move lower is expected which should lead to a continued decline in core inflation. Source: Charlie Bilello @charliebilello

The FT reports that a secret meeting between US and China which took place in IMF basement paved way for tariff deal seen on both sides as a victory 👇

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".
