πŸ“ˆ Annual inflation in the United States grew to 9.1%, the highest in 40 years

US inflation surged to a new four-decade high in June because of rising prices for gas, food and rent, squeezing household budgets and pressuring the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates aggressively - trends that raise the risk of a recession.

The government’s consumer price index soared 9.1% over the past year, the biggest yearly increase since 1981, with nearly half of the increase due to higher energy costs.

Many economists worry that the Fed’s drive to quell inflation will cause it to tighten credit too aggressively even while the economy, by some measures, is slowing. Much higher borrowing costs could trigger a recession, potentially by next year.

🎞 Netflix is partnering with Microsoft for its new ad-supported tier

Netflix is partnering with Microsoft for its upcoming ad-supported streaming tier, the company announced Wednesday. The streaming service says Microsoft will become its β€œglobal advertising technology and sales partner” upon rolling out the cheaper option.

β€œIt’s very early days and we have much to work through,” Netflix COO Greg Peters writes in the post. β€œBut our long term goal is clear. More choice for consumers and a premium, better-than-linear TV brand experience for advertisers. We’re excited to work with Microsoft as we bring this new service to life.”

Netflix first hinted at a cheaper, ad-supported tier in May and later confirmed the possibility last month. Although Netflix hasn’t announced an official date for the tier’s rollout, it’s rumored to become available to customers by the end of 2022.

🚨 Bodies of missing man, 3 kids found in Indianapolis pond

The bodies discovered Tuesday night are those of Kyle Moorman, 27, of Indianapolis, and his children: 1-year-old Kyran Holland, 2-year-old Kyannah Holland and 5-year-old Kyle Moorman II, the Marion County Coroner’s Office confirmed.

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department first revealed that the family had disappeared on Sunday. Earlier this week, police said officers searched the area and other locations on foot and using drones. The causes and manners of their deaths were pending.

πŸ’‰ US regulators OK new COVID-19 shot option from Novavax

The US is getting another COVID-19 vaccine choice as the Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday cleared Novavax shots for adults.
Novavax makes a more traditional type of shot than the three other COVID-19 vaccines available for use in the US -- and one that’s already available in Europe and multiple other countries.

The Maryland company also hopes its shots can become a top booster choice in the US and beyond. Tens of millions of Americans still need boosters that experts call critical for the best possible protection as the coronavirus continues to mutate. For now, the FDA authorized Novavax’s initial two-dose series for people 18 and older.

Much of the company’s vaccine, including doses for the US, are being produced by the Serum Institute of India, the world’s largest vaccine manufacturer.

Conservative leadership election: Mordaunt, Truss and Sunak emerge as frontrunners in first ballot

Jeremy Hunt and Nadhim Zahawi are knocked out in the first ballot of Tory MPs, with six candidates left in the race to succeed Boris Johnson. Mr Hunt, who came second in the 2019 leadership election, attracted just 18 votes while Mr Zahawi was eliminated with 25.

Mr Hunt said after he was eliminated: β€œIt’s become obvious to me you only get one big shot at this, and I had mine in 2019.” He warned that β€œsmears and attacks may bring short-term tactical gain but always backfire long-term”, advising the remaining candidates to avoid β€œdrama”. He says that is backing Rishi Sunak for two reasons - citing his 'formidable ability' when it comes to economic policy, and his 'decent, straight' character with 'the highest standards of integrity'

The winner will be announced on 5 September and will replace Mr Johnson as prime minister the next day.
