India is expected to produce a record 107 million
tonnes of wheat this year. FM announced ₹1.5-lakh-cr booster targeting
agriculture sector while a study finds more than 80% Indian households have
already lost income during lockdown whereas ADB thinks global economy could
witness losses worth up to $8.8 trillion due to Covid-19. U.S. House passes $3
trillion aid bill while Fed warns of significant hit to asset prices if crisis
grows although Michigan sees budget gap twice as big as last recession’s. Industrial
Production in U.S. fell by 11.2% in April, the steepest drop in records in more
than 100 years. A current round of Brexit talks ended in a stalemate, adding
another economic anxiety whilst Germany enters recession but fares better than
neighbours leading to the Eurozone’s need to soften its rules and accept
high-yield debt as collateral. China’s economic activity showed some signs of
improvement though rising joblessness continued to weigh heavily on consumer
spending. Record drops in spending and industrial output show the scale of
economic disruption from lockdowns and soaring unemployment across geographies hurting
women the most while huge stimulus could
lead to ‘red hot’ price rises over the longer term.
