- The Biden admin lowered its infrastructure spending proposal to $1.7 trillion (down from $2.25 trillion) but that is still roughly triple what Congressional Republicans want to spend.
- Eurozone manufacturing and services activity expanded at a faster rate in May, hitting a three-year high, as Covid-19 vaccinations ramp up and businesses re-open.
