President Joe Biden is paying a steep price for high inflation — a problem that festered during his first year in office instead of fading away as he suggested it would. His $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package, enacted in March, drove what will probably be the fastest economic growth since 1984 and pulled the unemployment rate down to 3.9% at a quicker pace than experts predicted. But after unprecedented government interventions and supply chain problems, inflation is running at a nearly 40

A key group of China Evergrande's international creditors said on Thursday they were ready to take "all necessary actions" to defend their rights if the property developer did not show more urgency to resolve a default. Evergrande is the world's most indebted property company, with more than $300 billion in total liabilities, which include nearly $20 billion of international bonds all deemed to be in default after a run of missed payments late last year. The creditor group, represented by law firm Kirkland & Ellis and investment bank Moelis, said in a statement it had to "seriously consider" enforcement action after a lack of engagement by the firm at the heart of China's property crisis.
As part of its battle against inflation and a return to more normal monetary policy, the U.S. Federal Reserve is approaching a decision to reduce its balance sheet, https://graphics.reuters.com/USA-FED/BALANCESHEET/byprjmwezpe/index.html which has roughly doubled in size during the pandemic to nearly $9 trillion. It's a huge stockpile that has been helping hold down longer-term interest rates - including the mortgage rates households worry about when they buy a home - and which influences a wide range of asset and other prices in the economy. It has been a long journey to a balance sheet that big, and it will be a long trip back to whatever level of assets the Fed decides is "normal" for it to hold.
