[Slowing CPI in Canada Provides Flexibility for Economic Management] RBC economist Nathan Janzen stated that overall inflation in Canada slowed in January, despite tax-related distortions that should have pushed up CPI a year ago. He said the slower inflation provides the Bank of Canada with greater flexibility in guiding interest rate policy, as the country's economy faces turbulence from US trade policy and the rise of AI. Janzen said RBC does not expect further interest rate cuts, noting that price increases remain high in some sectors—particularly food and dining costs. He added that the two core CPI indicators favored by the Bank of Canada have remained above 2% for nearly five years.

Federal Reserve Governor Barr stated that recent data shows the job market is gradually stabilizing. While the job market is currently in equilibrium, it is relatively vulnerable to shocks and easily influenced by external factors. We have ample evidence to believe that price pressures will ease further, but the possibility of inflation remaining persistently above 2% still poses a "significant risk." Barr indicated that he hopes to see more concrete evidence of inflation falling back to the 2% target, and that it is a more prudent and reasonable approach for the Federal Reserve to spend sufficient time studying relevant data before adjusting monetary policy again.

01:51:27

Federal Reserve Governor Barr stated that, as things stand, there is virtually no evidence that the development of artificial intelligence is causing unemployment to rise. However, we should prepare in advance for potential disruptions to the labor market caused by AI.

The company, which owns well-known tractor brands such as Case IH and New Holland, revealed in a statement that global agricultural machinery demand this year may "decline by another 5%, reaching a historic low." Despite the Trump administration's $12 billion farmer aid program, CNH's competitor AGCO Corp. stated earlier this month that these aid measures have not yet translated into actual new sales.

[Britain Joins Forces with EU Allies to Resist France's "Make in Europe" Initiative] The UK is actively lobbying EU member states, including Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands, to jointly oppose France's stringent trade proposals. These proposals could exclude the UK from EU public procurement tenders. Currently, France is pushing forward with strict "EU First" rules for various goods and services, particularly in key sectors such as automobiles, advanced technology, and renewable energy. The UK is urging the European Commission to abandon this policy direction, fearing it will ultimately harm the common interests of both the UK and the EU. Meanwhile, some EU member states also have concerns, arguing that overly stringent "domestic content" rules could not only stifle market investment and increase manufacturing costs but also indirectly bolster competitors' growth, contradicting the EU's original intention to promote industrial synergy.

[Reform Party, Leading in Polls, Announces Shadow Cabinet, Plans to Appoint Former Conservative Party Leader Jenrick as Chancellor] Nigel Farage, leader of the Reform Party, announced that if the party wins the next general election, he will formally appoint Robert Jenrick as Chancellor of the Exchequer. Currently, the Reform Party consistently leads in various polls. Farage announced his appointed shadow cabinet—a team formed by a non-governing party in preparation for taking power. Deputy leader Richard Tice has been assigned to oversee a package of business, trade, and energy-related matters, while policy director Zia Yusuf has been tasked with handling domestic affairs, including immigration, a key factor driving the Reform Party's rising approval ratings. Since April last year, Farage's Reform Party has consistently topped national polls. He has pledged to professionalize the party and prepare for governing, and Tuesday's appointment announcement marks a significant step in this process. It is worth noting that the Reform Party won only 5 out of 650 seats in the 2024 House of Commons election, which greatly limited Farage's ability to form a leadership team that could effectively speak in Parliament. The addition of former Conservative Party member Jenrick may help the Reform Party improve its governing image.

[JPMorgan Chase: AI-Driven Industry Transformation May Accelerate Consolidation Among Small US Banks] JPMorgan Chase analysts suggest that small and medium-sized US banks unable to afford large investments in artificial intelligence (AI) may be forced to merge to mitigate the impact on their revenue. A team led by Vivek Juneja points out that while most banks are actively deploying AI capabilities to compete, growing market concerns about the technology's impact have triggered a recent pullback in the banking sector. Analysts believe that banks must increase their investments to remain competitive. "Banks capable of increasing their AI investments will have an advantage; these institutions are typically large, leading banks and some regional banks," Juneja wrote in the report. "Currently, the actual impact of AI on revenue and profits is not yet significant, but it is expected to drive more small banks towards consolidation."

[Iranian Foreign Minister: Iran Adheres to Peaceful Nuclear Energy Development Path] On the 17th local time, following the Iran-US negotiations, Iranian Foreign Minister Araqchi attended and addressed the UN Disarmament Conference. Araqchi stated that Iran neither seeks to manufacture nor accumulate nuclear weapons, and the actions of certain Western countries, including the United States, have undermined the negotiation process. Iran has consistently adhered to a peaceful path of nuclear energy development and does not seek to acquire nuclear weapons. Negotiations between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) should remain technical. Iran discussed cooperation between the IAEA and Iran with IAEA Director General Grossi yesterday, and the two sides will continue dialogue. Araqchi expressed hope that the negotiations with the United States would reach an agreement, but Iran remains fully prepared to defend against any attack. Any agreement must guarantee Iran's fundamental rights, and the response to attacks on Iran will not be limited to its border regions. (CCTV News)
