investingLive Americas FX news wrap 18 May: Trump pauses Iran attack, markets whip

MMKT

The U.S. faces a fiscal crisis as inflation erases wage gains since 2024, driven by the ongoing U.S.-Israeli war against Iran. Consumer prices rose 0.6% last month, while median weekly earnings increased only 0.45%. The proposed suspension of the federal gasoline tax could add $11.5 billion to the deficit, compounding the $200 billion requested for the war. The national debt is projected to rise 20% by 2028, with interest consuming a significant portion of tax revenue. The bond market demands 5% interest for 30-year loans, leading to real losses for bondholders.

- The article discusses the impact of inflation on U.S. wages since Donald Trump's election, attributing this inflation to the war in Iran.  
- It notes that the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a 0.6% increase in consumer prices and a decrease in real median wages, reflecting a concerning economic situation.  
- The author warns of escalating national debt and government spending, forecasting a 20% increase in U.S. debt by 2028, while highlighting the rising interest demands in the bond market.
