Quick Glance: Joann Files Bankruptcy Due to Consumer Decline
  • The fabric and crafting retailer Joann Inc. took the step to file for bankruptcy as it faced challenges in sustaining its financial obligations following a period of decreased sales after the pandemic lockdowns.

Quick Glance: Inflation Decline and Consumer Impact
  • Inflation in Germany continues to decline, primarily due to cheaper energy prices. Experts predict a further decrease in the year ahead, but with potential challenges. Higher inflation rates diminish consumer purchasing power.

  • In February, energy and fuels decreased in price, while food prices increased. Services also became more expensive. Consumer prices rose by 0.4 percent compared to the previous month.

  • The German government forecasts rising consumer prices and wage increases above the inflation rate. The expectation is that employees will spend the money and boost private consumption. However, the Bundesbank President warns against premature interest rate cuts.

  • Despite the decline in inflation, the Bundesbank cautions against premature interest rate cuts. The European Central Bank aims for price stability in the medium term. Higher interest rates can curb demand but also burden the economy.

Quick Glance: Historic Increase in Broadband Speed by FCC
  • The FCC recently decided to significantly raise the minimum threshold for fixed high-speed broadband speed. The download benchmark is being increased from 25 megabits per second (Mbps) to 100Mbps, representing a massive 300% increase that is urgently needed in today's hyper-connected landscape.

  • Similarly, the minimum upload speed is seeing a substantial boost. The FCC agreed to raise it from 3Mbps to 20Mbps, which marks a significant 567% increase. The new minimum upload speed for broadband is now just under 5Mbps lower than the previous download metric.

  • The updated speed metrics are based on standards currently used in multiple federal and state programs, as well as consumer patterns and the actual offerings marketed by internet service providers.

  • According to the latest broadband audit, 24 million Americans do not have access to fixed terrestrial broadband connections (excluding satellite), including 28% in rural areas and 23% of people living in tribal areas. Additionally, 45 million Americans do not have access to both 100/20 Mbps fixed services and 35/3 Mbps mobile 5G-NR services.
