Inflation in New Zealand Eases But Near-Term Rate Cuts Unlikely: New Zealand’s consumer prices rose by less than expected in the first three months of this year ...

Quick Glance: Powell Warns of Lack of Progress on Inflation

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized that the U.S. economy, while otherwise strong, has not seen a return of inflation to the central bank's target.

Powell mentioned that the current policy should remain in place as inflation has not declined quickly enough and there has been no further progress towards the 2% goal.

Since July 2023, the Fed has maintained its benchmark interest rate in a target range between 5.25% and 5.5%, the result of 11 consecutive rate hikes.

Financial markets have had to adjust their expectations for rate cuts this year as inflation has been higher than expected, and the Fed's policy continues to be dependent on data.

Shaheen, Amir star as Pakistan dismiss New Zealand for just 90 in Twenty20 clash - News | Khaleej Times

Quick Glance: Dominant Pakistan Defeats New Zealand in Twenty20 Match

Shaheen Shah Afridi and Mohammad Amir led Pakistan to a convincing victory over New Zealand in their second Twenty20 match in Rawalpindi.

Pakistan opted to let New Zealand bat first, with Shaheen leading the attack with 3-13, while Amir finished with 2-13 after almost four years of international absence.

Spinners Abrar Ahmed (2-15) and Shadab Khan (2-15) intensified the pressure as New Zealand was dismissed for their second lowest score against Pakistan in the shortest format.

The second Twenty20 match was abandoned after just two deliveries due to rain. Both teams are gearing up for the upcoming Twenty20 World Cup set to take place in June in the United States and the West Indies.

X/Twitter will charge new users to post, Elon Musk says: Making users pay is only way to stop bots taking over platform

independent.co.uk/tech/x-twitter-elon-musk-pay-to-post-b2529566.html

Quick Glance: Musk Plans Fee for New X Users

Elon Musk intends to charge new users of X in the initial months to curb the activity of automated bot accounts.

The fee is set to be waived after three months to allow free posting.

Tests in New Zealand and the Philippines raised skepticism about the effectiveness of the fee as a countermeasure against bots.

Declining revenues at X post-rebranding and Twitter acquisition, along with a negative brand perception by companies, are impacting the service's business.

Quick Glance: Teenager Accused of Sydney Church Stabbing Displays Signs of Mental Illness, Court Reveals

A teenage boy facing a potential life sentence for terrorism in the stabbing of a bishop has exhibited behaviors consistent with mental illness or intellectual disability, according to his lawyer.

The 16-year-old is alleged to have traveled 90 minutes from his home to attack Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel during a livestreamed sermon at Christ the Good Shepherd Church in Wakeley, Sydney.

Investigators from a joint counter-terrorism team, comprising state and federal police and Asio staff, interviewed the boy in his hospital bed before charging him with committing a terrorist act.

A brief of evidence is set to be presented when the matter returns to court on June 14.

Quick Glance: Bishop's Premonition and Stabbing Incident

A well-known Sydney bishop, stabbed during a sermon, had been warned of a potential attack on his life in recent weeks.

The attack on Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel, allegedly by a 15-year-old, occurred at the Christ the Good Shepherd Church in Wakeley on Monday night following a sermon where the bishop mentioned that his death was imminent.

The bishop clarified that his potential passing would not be an attempt to escape or avoid life, but rather a conscious desire to be with God.

A 15-year-old boy was arrested after the attack on the bishop and three other men during a service at an Assyrian Orthodox church in Sydney's southwest. The bishop was taken to the hospital with multiple stab wounds and is currently in stable condition.
