- Manufacturing output outside of vehicle assembly declined, though core retail sales rose by 0.4%.
- Economic uncertainty from shifting trade policies is restraining business investments and softening demand.
The outlook for consumer spending is cloudy.— Bill Adams, chief economist at Comerica Bank, comments on the challenges facing consumer behavior.

Court Upholds Trump's Federal Control of National GuardAn appeals court halts a lower court order returning California’s National Guard to the governor amid violent protests.
- A federal appeals court ruled that President Trump likely acted within his authority by federalizing California’s National Guard during recent protests.
- Judges cited violence, including attacks on federal officers and damage to federal buildings, to justify the president’s decision.
