Welcome to your weekly macro roundup. This comprehensive edition covers the United States, Europe, and key emerging markets with in-depth analysis of the week's most significant economic developments and what they mean for markets ahead.

## 🇺🇸 May's 172K payrolls and 54.0 ISM demolished the tariff recession call

May nonfarm payrolls printed 172,000 against an 80,000 consensus, and ISM Manufacturing PMI hit 54.0, a four-year high. Two data points that demolished the tariff recession call and left the Fed sitting on its hands.

## 🇪🇺 ECB walks into June hike as services PMI contracts and energy inflation hits 10.9%

Composite PMI fell to an 18-month low of 48.5 in May as energy-driven inflation hit 3.2%, pushing the ECB toward a June 11 rate hike into a shrinking services economy. September is the real decision, and the ECB has historically struggled to make it.

## 🌏 Indonesia doubled the expected rate hike, and the rupiah broke to a record 18,000 anyway

Bank Indonesia's 50 basis point hike to 5.25% couldn't arrest the rupiah, which broke through 18,000 per dollar for the first time on record. An $18bn Q1 2026 balance-of-payments reversal shows the structural vulnerability that rate policy alone can't fix.

## 🇨🇳 China's PMI divergence looks manageable; what's happening to producer margins does not

China's official PMI flatlined at 50.0 in May while the Caixin gauge held at 51.8, but April PPI surged to +2.8% year-on-year, a 45-month high. Manufacturers are eating the cost shock, not passing it through.
