U.S. business borrowings jump 20% in May - ELFA survey
U.S. companies borrowed $8.1 billion for capital investments in May, 20% higher than last year, the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association (ELFA) said, as an economic recovery fueled by rising vaccinations and easing curbs drove up demand.
In the second straight month of double-digit growth in borrowings, more companies lined up for new loans, leases and lines of credit compared with last year, but borrowings in May fell 17% from the previous month. “While overall industry performance is relatively strong during the first half of this year, even more robust demand for financing is being constrained by supply chain shortages in several economic subsectors,” ELFA Chief Executive Officer Ralph Petta said in a statement on Tuesday.
“With COVID-related payment modifications resolved for the most part, ELFA members report their portfolios performing well.” The index is based on a survey of 25 members, including Bank of America Corp, CIT Group Inc and the financing affiliates or units of Caterpillar Inc, Dell Technologies Inc, Siemens AG, Canon Inc and Volvo AB. Washington-based ELFA, which reports economic activity for the nearly $1-trillion equipment finance sector, said credit approvals rose to 77.4% in May from 76.3% in April.
ELFA’s leasing and finance index measures the volume of commercial equipment financed in the United States. The Equipment Leasing and Finance Foundation, ELFA’s non-profit affiliate, reported a monthly confidence index of 71.3 in June, in line with the May reading of 72.1. A reading of above 50 indicates a positive business outlook.

After Biden, Blinken back to Europe to shore up Western unity
Blinken will travel to Berlin, Paris and Rome, meeting the European Union's two key powerbrokers, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron, as well as Vatican leaders and taking part in talks on bringing peace to war-scarred Libya and defeating the Islamic State extremist group.
The top US diplomat will close his trip with a July 29 meeting in the Italian city of Matera of the Group of 20 major economies, potentially bringing him face to face with his counterpart from China -- whose growing assertiveness abroad and at home has been identified by the Biden administration as the top US challenge.

Morgan Stanley Tells Staff They’ll Need Vaccines to Enter Office
Morgan Stanley told employees they will need to be vaccinated against Covid-19 to enter its New York offices, as a growing number of Wall Street firms adopt policies delaying the return of staff who aren’t protected against the deadly virus.
The bank notified workers of the policy in a memo. Just last week, Chief Executive Officer James Gorman fired off a warning shot to staff still uncertain about wanting to return to the office. “If you can go to a restaurant in New York City, you can come into the office and we want you in the office,” he said at a conference. Gorman estimated that more than 90% of employees back in the offices were already vaccinated and expected that number to inch up closer to 100%. While the bank hasn’t mandated a full return to office like Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and JPMorgan Chase & Co, Gorman said if the offices weren’t filled up by Labor Day in September, “then we’ll have a different kind of conversation.” BlackRock Inc. informed its U.S. workforce of a similar plan last week, saying it would allow only fully vaccinated workers to come back to work starting next month. Bank of America Corp. also plans to prioritize the return of vaccinated staff, bringing all of them back by early September.
The Financial Times reported Morgan Stanley’s internal announcement earlier Tuesday, noting it takes effect in New York City and Westchester on July 12 and also applies to clients and visitors.

Jill Biden promotes vaccines in Nashville, but few get the jab at pop-up clinic
As first lady Jill Biden arrived in Nashville Tuesday on her latest stop in a vaccine advocacy tour, she was welcomed by state politicians, city officials, a country music superstar and a boisterous crowd of vaccinated fans. But the event was missing what it needed most – people getting vaccinated. It appeared that only a few dozen vaccine recipients trickled through the pop-up vaccination clinic at the Ole Smoky Distillery south of Lower Broadway on Tuesday afternoon, and when Biden arrived at the event, only about 10 were there to greet her. Biden shook hands and thanked the small group, then leaned in close to comfort a teen at the moment she got her shot.

The report, which cited unnamed sources, said officials were looking at various precautions such as limiting the time of the sales.

Michael Dell is the chairman and CEO of Dell Technologies, which was formed in 2016 when Dell merged with computer storage giant EMC. The estimated $60 billion Dell-EMC merger, which was finalized in 2016, was the largest technology acquisition ever. In late 2018 Dell Technologies returned to public markets through a complicated financial restructuring. Much of Dell's fortune lies in his private investment firm MSD Capital, which has stakes in hotels and restaurants. In May 2017 Dell donated $1 billion to his foundation, which focuses on child poverty; it makes both impact investments and charitable donations.
