June 15, Wuhan — Hubei party secretary Guan Zhiou met Xiaomi founder-chairman and CEO Lei Jun. Guan urged Xiaomi to expand and deepen its Hubei footprint, contribute to building Wuhan as a regional tech innovation center, and said the province will optimize the business environment and provide full-service support. Lei said Xiaomi is bullish on prospects in Hubei, will increase local business deployment, and seek to attract more talent and upstream and downstream firms to the province.

Nearly half of Federal Reserve policymakers no longer believe that holding borrowing costs steady would be sufficient to bring inflation back to 2% if oil prices spike after a war involving Iran. The Fed's latest dot plot shows views on the rate path shifting from how long to hold rates before cuts to growing concern about the need for additional hikes; some officials now expect rate increases. Wednesday's projections revised inflation sharply higher since March: median PCE YoY is now seen at 3.6% by year-end (March: 2.7%), median core PCE YoY at 3.3% (March: 2.7%). Median year-end unemployment is 4.3% — matching May's reading and below March's 4.4% — indicating policymakers increasingly see the labor market as not weakening and reducing the case for rate cuts.
