US Fed await new inflation data

BBC World Service - Business Matters, US Fed await new inflation data

The US Fed are awaiting data to see if US inflation is at their annual 2% target

The US Fed are awaiting data to see if US inflation is at their annual 2% target.

US Inflation is down significantly from peak levels but there is some chance its underlying level is not at the Fed’s 2% annual goal, as they await figures due out on Thursday. Sam Fenwick will be hearing what investors are saying.

US aviation regulators have given Boeing 90 days to come up with a plan to fix safety problems. This comes after a door panel blew off the 737 Max aircraft last month.

And we hear from the business woman who took on Elon Musk and won, after Tesla cancelled an order worth 2,000 dollars.

Sam Fenwick is joined throughout by two guests on opposite sides of the world: Rachel Pupazzoni is a business reporter and presenter at ABC news in Perth, Australia and Walter Todd is president chief investment officer at Greenwood Capital in South Carolina, USA.
