AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Markets & Inflation: Wholesale prices jumped again, with April wholesale business inflation hitting 6% year-over-year, feeding fresh cost pressure after consumer inflation rose to 3.8%—a reminder that the Iran-war energy shock is still working its way through the economy. Energy & Geopolitics: With the Strait of Hormuz still effectively closed, oil and gas prices stay elevated, and the U.S. is leaning on China to help reopen shipping—even as Trump downplays Beijing’s role in ending the Iran conflict. Politics & Courts: South Carolina’s Supreme Court ordered a new trial for disgraced attorney Alex Murdaugh, while Kentucky AG Russell Coleman asked the U.S. Supreme Court to block mail-order abortion pills without in-person supervision. Tech & Business: Algoma Steel says its “trajectory” is improving as its electric furnace ramps, and IRefer Club pitches a shift from traditional search to recommendation-driven discovery. Consumer Life: Americans are booking longer trips again—slow travel searches hit record highs, and bookings for stays over eight days rose 19%. Local Watch: Buc-ee’s Oak Grove, Kentucky opening slips to 2029 after road construction delays.
