  • UK Economy Slows Amid Global Energy Pressures; US GDP Grows 2% in Q1 2026
    June 17, 2026, 2:33 AM EDT. The US economy grew at an annualised rate of 2.0% in Q1 2026, driven by energy self-sufficiency and investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure. In contrast, the UK faced significant challenges with GDP growth slowing to 0.6% in Q1 2026, impacted by the delayed 2025 Autumn Budget, rising consumer caution, and the Middle East conflict. UK unemployment ticked slightly down to 4.9% due to fewer job seekers, but risks remain with unemployment expected above 5% amid tight global energy markets. UK stock indices saw volatile swings, with gains wiped out by geopolitical risks. The market anticipates modest UK growth of 1.0% in 2026, below earlier forecasts. Shares' net asset value per share fell 5.84 pence over six months to March 31, 2026.
