MEXICO CITY, Dec 15 (Reuters) - The Bank of Mexico raised its key interest rate by an expected 50 basis points to a record 10.50% on Thursday, tempering its monetary tightening pace amid a slowdown in inflation while suggesting it could hike rates at least once more. The decision follows four consecutive 75-basis-point hikes and comes after the U.S. Federal Reserve increased its key interest rate by 50 basis points Wednesday after four consecutive hikes of its own of three-quarters of a percentage point. "The board considers it will still be necessary to raise the reference rate in its next monetary policy meeting," said Banxico, as the Mexican central bank is known. "Subsequently, it will assess if the reference rate needs to be further adjusted as well as the pace of adjustments based on the prevailing conditions," it added. Banxico reiterated that inflation is projected to converge to its 3% target in the third quarter of 2024.

MEXICO CITY, Nov 24 (Reuters) - Mexico's annual consumer prices slowed more than expected during the first half of November, but the core inflation index - which remains a main concern in the country as it grapples with high costs - came in above market forecasts. Data from national statistics agency INEGI showed on Thursday that annual headline inflation in Mexico hit 8.14% in the period, down from 8.53% a month ago and also below consensus of 8.24% in a Reuters poll of economists. The latest inflation figures backed expectations that the local central bank, known as Banxico, would keep hiking interest rates. "Overall, headline inflation continues to edge down in Mexico, but core inflation remains sticky, which will continue to keep policymakers uneasy," said Pantheon Macroeconomics' chief Latin America economist, Andres Abadia. On a monthly basis, Mexico's headline inflation rose 0.56% while the core index was up by 0.34% in mid-November, the statistics agency said.

Last year, Goldman gave its roughly 400 partners special one-time payments that added millions of dollars to their already generous year-end bonuses.

A farmer spreads nitrogen fertilizer in his wheat field in Blecourt, France, May 27, 2021. Russia, under financial sanctions, is a major producer of fertilizer and natural gas, key in making nitrogen products to boost yields of corn and other crops. Since Russia's February invasion of Ukraine, Europe started weaning itself off Russian natural gas and a pipeline transporting ammonia from Russia to a Ukraine port shut down. European countries typically buy most of their imported urea, a form of nitrogen fertilizer, from North Africa, but are now purchasing it further afield, Wallace said. EU nitrogen prices eased in mid-October as some European plants resumed production due to softening natural gas prices, he said.

☆ For widows on Facebook, updating relationship status is complicated

But on Facebook (FB), these changes come with additional complications due to the limited number of relationship status options available and the impact that changes to this status can have on whether a marriage is represented on the deceased’s Facebook (FB) memorial pages. “The relationship status is such a source of deep pain when a widow chooses to proceed with a new relationship,” she wrote in the letter. A separate Change.org petition started in September 2021 received nearly 20,000 signatures asking Facebook to retain the “widowed from” status permanently and allow users to create a new relationship status if they want. Facebook also allows users to change their relationship status to “widowed” and specify a partner’s name if a partner’s account has been memorialized. Sandberg lists Bernthal as her spouse on Facebook; Goldberg’s account is a memorial page, where it lists six former places of employment.

☆ GOP lawmakers are bashing Biden for driving up inflation, but they could make it worse by extending Trump's tax cuts
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-17 | by ( Ayelet Sheffey | Juliana Kaplan | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Republicans are eyeing a midterm victory as a method to extend Trump's tax cuts. Biden continues to resist Trump's tax policies but has run into roadblocks from centrist Democrats. But as Republican lawmakers have been blaming Biden for high inflation levels in the country, extending Trump's tax cuts could cause prices to climb because it would stimulate consumer spending, causing demand to overpower supply. The Trump tax cuts have proven to have real political staying power, even with Democrats' razor-thin majority. Any real discussion of the future of the tax cuts probably won't come until 2025, when the individual cuts provision expires.

The central bank will have a tough time avoiding a recession while raising rates, Jason Trennert told CNBC. The Strategas CEO added that inflation is too high for a soft landing to be realistic, unlike in 1994 when inflation was much lower. Speaking with CNBC on Monday, he said inflation is too high for a soft landing to be realistic. "There's been very few instances in which inflation got to something like 8 or 9% where the Fed was able to bring it down without causing a recession," Trennert said. "It seems to me the operating assumption should be that you're likely to get a recession in 2023," Trennert said.

Речь зашла о существовании разумной жизни во Вселенной. И вот на днях в RNAAS Research Notes of the AAS появилась визуальная компьютерная модель расселения разумной жизни во Млечному Пути. Модель Кэрролла-Нелленбека рассчитала движение по Млечному Пути космических зондов-кораблей, которые либо развозят по космосу информацию о жизни, либо переправляют по космосу саму жизнь. Расчеты показали, что если разумная жизнь будет распространяться по Млечному Пути даже всего с одной планеты, то за время жизни Млечного Пути она успеет заселить Галактику. А еще ученые заявляли, что в космосе есть и более подходящие для жизни планеты.
