The risk-on sentiment is helping the major averages overcome news that Apple is raising prices on its iPads and MacBooks in response to memory charges that have become too expensive. Passing those increased costs onto consumers is emblematic of the substantial expenses associated with AI technologies that have generated worries about the capital returns prospects of the initiatives. Also, the need to increase prices is undermining hopes that related projects will offer deflationary relief. But the cyclical outlook this morning caught a lift from consumer spending and business investment exceeding forecasts amidst an upward revision to first-quarter GDP. Additionally, lighter-than-anticipated inflation and subdued unemployment claims are propelling the reacceleration theme that is benefitting from crude oil sinking to February lows alongside ongoing demand for labor. Investors are enjoying broad rallies in stocks and fixed-income characterized by 7 of the 11 equity sectors advancing and the yield curve descending in bull-steepening motion with the monetary-policy sensitive short end leading the decline. The dovish tilt in the Treasury complex is bolstering commodities and precious metals in particular, but the greenback and cryptocurrencies are retreating. Elsewhere, prediction markets are seeing engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-consumer-spending-was-robust-last-month\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Consumer Spending Was Robust Last Month<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">May\u2019s personal income and spending report reflected robust consumption amidst lighter-than-anticipated inflation. Consumer spending rose 0.7% month over month (m\/m) while overall prices advanced 0.4% m\/m, the former arriving a tenth hotter than projections while the latter came in a tenth under. The results compare to April\u2019s 0.4% on both fronts. On a year-over-year (y\/y) basis, inflation climbed to 4.1% as expected and was up from the previous interval&#8217;s 3.8%. The core version, which excludes food and energy due to their volatile characteristics, increased 0.3% m\/m and 3.4% y\/y, in-line with estimates and near the prior period\u2019s 0.3% and 3.3%. The personal savings rate remained flat at 3% as income grew at the same pace as spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-aircraft-and-defense-weigh-on-durable-goods-orders\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Aircraft and Defense Weigh on Durable Goods Orders<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sharp reductions in aircraft purchases and a modest drop in defense transactions weighed on May\u2019s durable goods orders and blunted what was otherwise broad strength. The headline result contracted 4.5% m\/m, in-line with estimates and a reversal from April\u2019s 8.5% gain. The passenger jet and defense segments declined 51.8% and 3.4% m\/m, countering gains of 3%, 1.9%, 1.6%, 1.5%, 1.1%, 0.8%, 0.8% and 0.3% in the primary metals, machinery, computer, fabricated metal products, automobile, communication equipment, other and electric equipment categories. Nondefense capital goods excluding planes, a proxy for business investment, jumped 1.6%, reversing from the previous period\u2019s 0.7% slip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1008\" height=\"736\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/image-84.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-248115 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/image-84.png 1008w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/image-84-700x511.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/image-84-300x219.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/image-84-768x561.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1008px; aspect-ratio: 1008\/736;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-unemployment-claims-are-benign\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Unemployment Claims Are Benign<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unemployment claims stayed in the safe zone during the past two weeks as layoff appetites remained low across the economy. First time applications sank to 215k during the seven-day period culminating on June 20, under the 225k expected and 227k from the previous interval. Continuing filings rose to 1.821 million throughout the time span ended on June 13, ahead of the 1.8 million median estimate, which would have been an unchanged reading. Four-week moving averages rose modestly to 224.25k and 1.795 million from 223.5k and 1.786 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-gdp-is-revised-upward\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>GDP is Revised Upward<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First quarter Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth was revised from 1.6% to 2.1% as lower than originally reported imports narrowed the trade deficit, offsetting a downward adjustment to consumer spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-investors-overcome-morning-bumpiness\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Investors Overcome Morning Bumpiness<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This morning\u2019s bumpiness looks like it has been successful overcome by investors choosing the glass-half full view rather than focusing on headwinds. Indeed, Micron\u2019s stellar results paired with upbeat economic data are reasons to stay bullish on stocks; however, disappointment with AI leading to higher consumer prices in Apple\u2019s case signals potential profit margin and free cash flow yield degradation somewhere along the line. Additionally, Wall Street will be looking to further separate the winners from losers emerging from the adoption of the modern technology, with some firms showing superior execution, positive customer experiences and subdued costs, while others may reflect struggles with successfully implementing the tools efficiently. As for the cyclical outlook, a four-month low in crude prices, sinking interest rates and persistent consumer spending are conducive to a broadening rally amidst expanding corporate earnings and a growing tolerance for somewhat elevated valuations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-international-roundup\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>International Roundup<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-hong-kong-trade-deficit-expands\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hong Kong Trade Deficit Expands<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hong Kong\u2019s May trade deficit widened from both the year-ago period and April, according to the Census and Statistics Department. Last month, the value of imports exceeded that of products shipped abroad by $44.2 billion, up from $29.5 billion in April and $27.3 billion in the year-ago period. Exports were up 40.8% y\/y compared to the 42.9% rate in the preceding month. Import growth, at 42%, slowed from April\u2019s 44.4% rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As with other recent months, demand for AI infrastructure items caused shipments of high-tech products to foreign markets to grow significantly y\/y as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Electrical machinery, apparatus and appliances, and electrical parts thereof, 56.1%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Office machines and automatic data processing machines, 50.2%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Telecommunications and sound recording and reproducing apparatus and equipment, 37.6%.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exports to Asia, the United Kingdom and the US, furthermore, climbed by 44.6%, 61.7% and 55.7%, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Concurrently, imports increased by the stated amounts in the following categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Telecommunications and sound recording and reproducing apparatus and equipment, 61.2%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Electrical machinery, apparatus and appliances, and electrical parts thereof, 51.6%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Office machines and automatic data processing machines, 44.5%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The largest import expansions occurred with Korea, India and Vietnam with gains of 107.4%, 95.2% and 76.5%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-uk-retailing-contraction-accelerates\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>UK Retailing Contraction Accelerates<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The UK retailing slump intensified this month with the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) Distributive Trades Survey falling from -46 to -54. Economists anticipated that the gauge would strengthen to -41. June sales were judged to be poor and fell during the year to June by 54% following the 46% decline in the year to May. During the same 12-month period leading to June, wholesale volume sank 20% with the weakness moderating slightly from the 26% contraction in the 12-month period to May.&nbsp; Nevertheless, wholesalers anticipated a 43% slip in sales during the year to July period. Retailers also have a downbeat outlook. They expect sales to be fall 45% in the year to July. The cyber world hasn\u2019t been spared as consumers retreated from cash registers. Online sales were flat in the year to June after growing 11% in the 12-month period leading to May. On a positive note, digital vendors expected volumes to climb 37% next month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Micron\u2019s
