The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index — the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge — rose to 3.5% year-on-year in April, marking its highest level since June 2023.
The Biggest Danger?
Inflation has remained above the Fed's 2% target for 60 consecutive months… the longest streak in modern history without the central bank successfully bringing it under control.
This means the Fed's battle against inflation is far from over, and markets are beginning to realize that interest rate cuts may be delayed even longer than expected.

Ben Gurion Transforms into a U.S. Base:
Occupied Palestine _ Ben Gurion Airport
There is an unprecedented deployment of U.S. military forces within Israeli bases and airports, most notably at Ben Gurion Airport.
From a military intelligence perspective, this signals a direct message of deterrence aimed at Iran, particularly given the sensitive nature of the ongoing negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
It serves as a strategic leverage point designed to push Tehran to recalibrate its stance, as any escalation at this stage could ignite a broader regional conflict.
Documents Reveal the Unseen:
Confirming this reality, Hebrew Channel 12 exposed a quiet crisis within the Israeli government following the leak of an urgent letter from the head of the Civil Aviation Authority, Shmuel Zakai. He warned that Ben Gurion Airport has effectively turned into a "U.S. military base with limited civilian activity.
The Backbone of Aerial Assault:**
Field reports have tracked dozens of giant U.S. aerial refueling tankers (such as the KC-135) occupying runways and overnight parking spaces—a presence the U.S. military has officially requested to extend until the end of 2026.
This military buildup has caused gridlock and suffocated Israeli commercial aviation. Local airlines, including El Al, have been forced to relocate their aircraft to airports in Cyprus and Greece due to the severe lack of space. This underscores that Washington is throwing its full military weight onto the frontlines to dictate terms at the negotiating table.
