Economic news:

US: U.S. Democratic Senator Joe Manchin from West Virginia slammed fellow lawmaker Bernie Sanders late Friday over his attempts to garner support for President Joe Biden’s multi-trillion-dollar spending package in the latest example of infighting among key lawmakers over the plan.

Manchin tweeted out his concern over the scope of the legislation in response to an editorial from Sanders, an independent senator from Vermont, advocating for it.

On Friday, West Virginia paper the Charleston Gazette-Mail published an editorial from Sanders urging support for the Democratic plan to address wealth inequity, soaring pharmaceutical costs, an increasingly expensive healthcare system and costly childcare.

Eurozone: Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey sent a fresh signal on Sunday that the British central bank is gearing up to raise interest rates for the first time since the onset of the coronavirus crisis as inflation risks mount.

Bailey said he continued to believe that the recent jump in inflation would be temporary, but that a surge in energy prices would push it higher and make its climb last longer, raising the risk of higher inflation expectations.

“Monetary policy cannot solve supply-side problems – but it will have to act and must do so if we see a risk, particularly to medium-term inflation and to medium-term inflation expectations,” Bailey said during an online panel discussion organised by the Group of 30 consultative group.

“And that’s why we at the Bank of England have signalled, and this is another such signal, that we will have to act,” he said. “But of course, that action comes in our monetary policy meetings.”

  During a recession, the unemployment rate normally rises because there is a lack of demand for products and services, which leads to a lack of need for employees. As a result of state and local governments implementing stay-at-home orders in reaction to the COVID-19 epidemic, the unemployment rate rose from 3.5 percent in February 2020 to a record 14.8 percent in April 2020, triggering the most recent U.S. recession. The exceptional loss of 22.1 million jobs between January and April 2020 triggered this massive increase in the unemployment rate. However, the economy quickly recovered, and the COVID-19 recession was the shortest on record. Prior to the epidemic, the United States had been experiencing its longest era of expansion in history.
