WASHINGTON - The Federal Reserve intensified its fight against the worst inflation in 40 years by raising its benchmark short-term interest rate by a half-percentage point Wednesday — its most aggressive move since 2000 — and signaling further large rate hikes to come.The increase in the Fed's key rate raised it to a range of 0.75% to 1%, the highest point since the pandemic struck two years ago.The Fed also announced that it will start reducing its huge $9 trillion balance sheet, which consists mainly of Treasury and mortgage bonds. Those holdings more than doubled after the pandemic recession hit as the Fed bought trillions in bonds to try to hold down long-term borrowing rates.

Biden highlights deficit progress to counter criticism on US economy

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Joe Biden on Wednesday highlighted new figures showing the government's red ink will grow less than expected this year and the national debt will shrink this quarter as he tried to counter criticism of his economic leadership amid growing dismay over inflation going into midterm elections that will decide control of Congress.Biden, embracing deficit reduction as a way to fight inflation, stressed that the dip in the national debt would be the first in six years, an achievement that eluded former President Donald Trump despite his promises to improve the federal balance sheet."The bottom line is the deficit went up every year under my predecessor before the pandemic and during the pandemic. It has gone down both years since I’ve been here," Biden said.

'Not good' BBC's Simon Reeve gives health update on his 'exotic illness' to worried fans

kavwire joked: "I thought you were pregnant at first …great news.”sierra_eco_bravo_alfa encouraged: “Keep on walking mate!”It is believed that the adventurer and documentary filmmaker picked up the exotic illness during one of his work trips, but he has not yet specified what the illness is.Last year, Simon revealed how he had managed to defy the odds after fertility doctors told him and his wife Anya that they had little to no chance of ever having children.The TV presenter and adventurer knew that he had always wanted to be a father, and thought of the role as his life's purpose.When he met and first started dating his wife, they were both in their early thirties, and Simon knew that if they were going to have children, it needed to be soon.However, once they started trying, he soon realised that conceiving a child was going to be a much harder task than he initially expected.After months of trying to conceive a baby naturally, Simon and Anya knew that something wasn’t quite right.Simon was left horrified when an expert told him that he was "basically infertile".Recalling the moment his world crumbled before him, Simon told his wife that if he couldn’t have children, he was "likely to go mad".“I would not be able to have children. It was the starkest of messages: I could hardly take it in,” Simon wrote.“She told me I had loads of sperm but their morphology was terrible.
