May 24th news, US President Trump said on May 23rd local time that if the mobile phones sold by Apple in the United States are made in foreign countries, they should face at least 25% tariffs. In an interview on the same day, US Treasury Secretary Bessant said that President Trumps original intention was to bring precision manufacturing back to the United States with the help of Apples relocation of the industrial chain. In this regard, some American experts said that moving Apple mobile phones back to the United States for production is "unrealistic like a fairy tale", and Apple will pay a high cost, and the price of its products will also rise. Apple phones produced in the United States will be sold for US$3,500, or about RMB 25,100. Compared with spending huge sums of money to move production lines back to the United States, Apple hopes to increase its investment in the field of artificial intelligence.Bank of Canada Governor Macklem: The transmission effect of tariffs in price data has not yet been observed.Bank of Canada Governor Macklem: The top priority is to reach a trade agreement with the United States.On May 24, Russian Ambassador to the UK Andrei Kelin said in an interview with the Russian Satellite News Agency that British society is increasingly tired of the Ukrainian conflict and British citizens do not want their country to accept Ukrainian refugees. In response to the question of whether British society is tired of the Ukrainian issue, Kelin said: "British society is tired of the Ukrainian issue, although it is not in the majority. If a year ago we were still talking about 80% of British people supporting their governments actions in Ukraine, now this proportion is seriously declining. I dont want to reveal specific numbers because they fluctuate frequently, but the trend is obvious. This is a decline in public support. More and more people are talking about the British people being tired of Ukrainian refugees and not wanting to take them in anymore."Russian Ministry of Defense: Russian troops occupied Stopchi and Otradny in eastern Ukraine.

WTI advances toward $75.00 as China-related demand optimism offsets recession fears

In the early hours of Monday, WTI steadily climbs near the intraday high of $74.70 as bullish emotion competes with economic slowdown worries. Despite this, the weaker US Dollar and a light schedule allow buyers of black gold to maintain control following Friday's mixed performance.

 

In spite of this, the risk profile remains elevated in light of China's reopening of its borders after a three-year closure. On the same line, Guo Shuqing, party secretary of the People's Bank of China, made his remarks (PBOC).

 

Reuters, transmitting China unlock news, claimed that "about 2 billion journeys are anticipated this season, roughly doubling the volume of previous year, and recovering to 70% of 2019 levels," citing a statement from the Chinese government.

 

On the other side, PBOC's Shuqing stated, "The world's second-largest economy is likely to recover rapidly due to the country's optimal Covid-19 response and the continued implementation of its economic policies."

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) fell the most in three weeks the day before, down 0.20% intraday to 103.70 as of press time, as the US employment report failed to excite greenback purchasers and the US activity numbers stoked fears of an economic slowdown. It's worth mentioning that the previous day's disappointing US wage growth, ISM Services PMI, and Factory Orders weighed on Treasury bond yields and the DXY.

 

On a different page, reports regarding a delay in the restoration of the colonial pipeline and the Russia-Ukraine conflict appear to also benefit energy buyers. Traders fear additional rate hikes ahead of the release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for December from China and the United States on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, which tests the positive momentum.
