The main events by the morning: July 3

• Trump continues to demand the resignation of Fed Chairman Powell. The US president again criticized the head of the Federal Reserve System, Jerome Powell, saying that he should resign immediately. He attached an article to the post on the social network, where a similar position was expressed by a representative of the housing finance agency. So far, Powell has been supported by the Supreme Court.

• The United States has eased export restrictions against China. Washington has partially lifted trade restrictions on the export of software for chip design to China. Some American companies have already confirmed receiving permits for supplies, a step that is part of a broader deal between the two countries.

• AI helps companies save billions. Banks, marketplaces, and telecom operators are actively implementing artificial intelligence: up to 70% of customer support requests are already processed by automated systems. Despite this, there are no plans to completely replace employees yet – people are still needed for complex tasks.

• The German finance minister said that the government's priority remains to restore growth in Europe's largest economy. Lars Klingbeil noted the importance of investments, reforms and fiscal consolidation. The economy has not grown for two years now, and possible US tariffs could significantly affect the country's export-oriented model.
