    Last night marked the start of the second Ramadan, the month of fasting, under lockdown for Muslims across the UK. For many, this Ramadan will be particularly difficult as there will be empty chairs at the dinner table as they end their fasts at sunset. Despite the initial disparities in the take up of the vaccine within ethnic minority communities, vaccine minister Nadhim Zahawi, who lost his uncle to coronavirus, has empowered places of worship including mosques, churches, synagogues, temples and gurdwaras to become vaccine hubs.

  • Our battle is only at the end of the beginning. The next front is Long Covid

    Boris Johnson has a weakness for boosterish language but, for once, his celebration of “another hugely significant milestone” was justified. The vaccine will now become available to those in their late forties — many of whom have already been given the first jab, thanks to the efficient deployment of unused doses by primary care networks. Last week, a cross-party group of 32 MPs and 33 peers wrote to Mr Johnson seeking better and more regular data on long Covid, after the Office for National Statistics disclosed that at least 1.1 million people were already suffering from the syndrome — many more than expected. In this respect, long Covid has much in common with myalgic encephalomyelitis (chronic fatigue syndrome), which is frequently triggered by viral illness and for which, as yet, no approved treatments have been developed.

    “Bury the Great Duke with an empire’s lamentation…” The words will have to be changed somewhat but Tennyson’s famous ode on the death of another great personage (the Duke of Wellington) will no doubt be much quoted in coming days. The Duke of Edinburgh could be controversial but, like the Queen, he has been a fixture of many people’s lives from cradle to grave. In a moment in history already characterised by loss and grieving already, the Duke of Edinburgh’s passing has come as very sad news indeed.

  • U.S. Consumer Prices Increased by More Than Forecast in March

    (Bloomberg) -- U.S. consumer prices climbed in March by more than forecast, adding to evidence of budding inflationary pressures as the economy reopens and demand strengthens.The consumer price index increased 0.6% in March from the prior month after a 0.4% gain in February, according to Labor Department data Tuesday. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for a 0.5% advance.Excluding volatile food and energy components, the so-called core CPI increased 0.3% from a month earlier.The monthly advance in the widely followed index led to an outsize 2.6% increase in the overall CPI from March 2020, when the pandemic depressed demand and pricing power. The core measure rose 1.6% from 12 months ago.The year-over-year changes are distorted by a phenomenon known as the base effect. The CPI, like many other economic data points, declined at the start of the pandemic amid lockdowns and widespread business closures. When compared to those depressed figures, the year-over-year increases for March-May will appear abnormally large.While many bond traders have priced in the expected anomalies in the CPI data Tuesday because of base effects, investors have also been on watch for a catalyst to move yields higher. After a spike that last month took the 10-year rate above 1.77%, the benchmark has hovered close to 1.7% in recent sessions.The latest figures on consumer prices add fuel to an already heated debate about the path of inflation in the U.S., especially on the heels of last week’s Labor Department data showing a stronger-than-expected surge in producer prices.Some analysts and economists argue a wave of pent-up demand paired with trillions of dollars in government spending will spur a sustained upward movement in inflation. Meanwhile, Federal Reserve officials, including Chair Jerome Powell, have said any meaningful increase in prices will likely prove temporary.Read More: Bond Market’s Stalled-Out Reflation Trade Needs Actual InflationAmid supply chain bottlenecks, supply shortages and surging input costs, producers are already feeling the pinch of rising costs. While not all cost increases will be pushed through to consumers -- given a variety of different measures firms can take to offset costs -- sustained pressures in the production pipeline raise the risk of an acceleration in consumer inflation.Recent survey data highlighted developing cost pressures. The Institute for Supply Management’s latest figures showed more than half of service providers reported paying higher prices in March, the largest share since 2011. The ISM’s manufacturing survey showed about 72% of manufacturers said the same -- the second-most since 2008.Recently, some company executives have mentioned plans to raise prices for their products.For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.

Holmes, Chairman and CEO of Resonant. “This continued traction is a testament to the performance, predictability and time-to-market advantage delivered by our platform, which we believe will result in an increased number of prepaid royalty deals moving forward. This is evidenced by our recent prepaid royalty agreement with our tier-1 Chinese foundry partner. “During the quarter we continued to strengthen our intellectual property portfolio, bringing our total patent count to over 320. We have focused primarily on our XBAR® technology, to strategically position Resonant as a leader in the much-anticipated performance of next-generation networks such as 5G, Wi-Fi and Ultra-wideband (UWB), as well as the unique applications that they enable when used in conjunction with Resonant’s high-performance RF filters.” “Our financial results for the quarter are in line with previously issued guidance.

About Resonant’s ISN® Design Technology Resonant can create designs for difficult bands, modules and other complex RF Front End requirements that we believe have the potential to be manufactured for half the cost and developed in half the time of traditional approaches. ISN® is a suite of proprietary mathematical methods, software design tools and network synthesis techniques that enable us to explore a much larger set of possible design solutions that regularly incorporate our proprietary technology. We then quickly deliver design simulations to our customers, which they manufacture or have manufactured by one of our foundry partners. These improved solutions still use Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) or Temperature Compensated Surface Acoustic Wave (TC-SAW) manufacturing methods and perform as well as those using higher cost manufacturing methods such as Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW). Resonant's method delivers excellent predictability, enabling achievement of the desired product performance in roughly half as many turns through the fab. In addition, because Resonant's models are fundamental, integration with its foundry and fab customers is seamless because its models speak the "fab language" of basic material properties and dimensions.
