1. U.S. industrial output increased more than expected in May
US industrial output rose in May, largely due to a broad-based pickup in factory output, which is a positive sign for the manufacturing sector, which has been struggling to find momentum. Data on Tuesday showed that industrial production rose 0.9% in May, beating market expectations. Manufacturing output also climbed 0.9 percent, led by the consumer goods sector, in stark contrast to other data that showed that the manufacturing sector struggled to build momentum amid rising input prices, volatile consumer demand and high borrowing costs.

5. The new study said that quantitative easing has caused more than three times the loss of the Bank of England to the Federal Reserve
According to a new study, the Bank of England has suffered more than three times as much as the Fed in losses due to its quantitative easing (QE) program. Christopher Mahon, head of dynamic real returns at asset manager Columbia Threadneedle, said the Bank of England's portfolio of government bonds purchased between 2009 and 2021 incurred losses equivalent to 4.7% to 4.9% of GDP. This compares to 1.3%-1.5% for the Fed and 3.2%-3.4% for the ECB. QE caused losses to the Bank of England equivalent to about £130 billion ($165 billion), all of which are borne by taxpayers under a guarantee agreement reached in 2009. At its peak, the Bank of England held £895 billion in bonds. QE brought in £124 billion in profits for the Treasury, but the Treasury has already spent that money and now the losses are accumulating as the Bank of England cuts its holdings.
