ceasefires, likely in response to my previous message where I outlined the impact of a ceasefire on Tiger chicken chick rearing and summarized recent ceasefire news (e.g., India-Pakistan, Ukraine-Russia, Israel-Palestine) as of May 15, 2025. Since your previous queries focused on poultry farming in Bangladesh, and you haven’t specified a particular ceasefire or region, I’ll provide a broader set of recent ceasefire-related articles from May 2025, focusing on major global conflicts. I’ll also briefly tie this back to poultry farming where relevant, as a ceasefire in a conflict zone could stabilize agricultural activities like chick rearing. If you meant a specific ceasefire or want articles from a particular source or region, please clarify, and I can refine the response.
Below, I’ve compiled a list of additional ceasefire-related news articles from May 2025, based on recent developments. Each entry includes the article title, source, publication date, a brief summary, and a link to the original source (where available). I’ve avoided repeating articles from my previous response but included new perspectives on the same conflicts (e.g., India-Pakistan, Ukraine-Russia) and added other relevant ceasefire discussions. I’ve also ensured the information is sourced from reputable outlets and cross-checked for accuracy.
# Recent Ceasefire News Articles (May 2025)
Below is a curated list of news articles covering ceasefire developments in major global conflicts as of May 15, 2025. These articles provide updates on ongoing ceasefire agreements, negotiations, and their implications, with a focus on India-Pakistan, Ukraine-Russia, and other relevant regions. Where applicable, I’ve noted potential impacts on agriculture, such as poultry farming, which could benefit from stabilized markets and supply chains post-ceasefire.

## Notes
- **Sources**: Articles are sourced from reputable outlets like The Times of India, BBC News, The Guardian, Financial Express, and Al Jazeera, ensuring credibility. Some links may require subscriptions or regional access; search the article title on the respective site for full content.
- **Poultry Context**: Ceasefires in conflict zones (e.g., India-Pakistan, Ukraine-Russia) can lower feed costs, improve supply chains, and stabilize markets, directly benefiting Tiger chick rearing in Bangladesh. For example, a 10% reduction in feed costs could increase profits by ~1,125 BDT per 100 chicks.
- **Limitations**: Some articles are behind paywalls, and specific details (e.g., exact trade impacts) may require further analysis. If you need open-access sources or region-specific articles, please specify.
- **Relevance to Your Query**: Given your interest in poultry farming (e.g., Tiger chick rearing, Fauji egg production, and profitable chicken farms from past conversations), I’ve included agricultural impacts where relevant. If you meant a specific ceasefire (e.g., India-Pakistan affecting Bangladesh’s border trade), I can focus on that.
### Additional Context and Clarification
- **India-Pakistan Ceasefire**: The ceasefire, effective May 10, 2025, remains fragile, with reports of drone sightings and diplomatic tensions over Kashmir’s water treaty. This is most relevant to Bangladesh due to regional trade and agricultural impacts.[](https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/how-india-pakistan-pulled-back-brink-with-us-brokered-ceasefire-2025-05-13/)[](https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/operation-sindoor-pahalgam-attack-india-pakistan-ceasefire-live-updates-may-12-2025/article69565981.ece)

Dow Tumbles 1,600 Points After Powell Says Tariffs Will Raise Inflation and Slow Growth More Than Expected
The Dow plunges 1,600 points after Powell asserts that tariffs will increase inflation and slow growth more than anticipated. The Dow Jones Industrial Average experienced one of its most severe single-day declines in recent memory on April 3, 2025, when it fell 1,600 points. This dramatic decline was sparked by a sobering warning from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell that President Donald Trump's newly imposed tariffs would raise inflation and impede economic growth beyond what analysts had anticipated. Financial markets were shocked by Powell's remarks, which he gave at a conference in Arlington, Virginia. They sparked urgent inquiries about the trajectory of the U.S. economy and demonstrated their susceptibility to shifts in trade policy. This article provides a comprehensive examination of the circumstances that led to this market disruption. We'll discuss Powell's remarks in detail, examine the market's immediate reaction, and consider how tariffs will affect the economy as a whole. We will also consider the uncertain future and contextualize the Trump administration's trade policies, examine how they actually affect businesses and consumers. A comprehensive understanding of a pivotal moment in the current economic landscape is the goal of this analysis, which is supported by expert insights, economic data, and concrete examples. A shift in perspective: Powell's harsh warning During the Federal Reserve’s annual conference on April 4, 2025, Jerome Powell addressed the economic fallout of tariffs with a candor that caught many off guard. He said, "Tariffs will raise inflation and slow growth more than expected," indicating a departure from the Fed's earlier, more restrained predictions. Prior to this time, the central bank had acknowledged that tariffs posed a risk but maintained a positive outlook, implying that the economy would be able to withstand their effects. However, Powell's most recent statement shows that the Fed is more concerned about the potential for trade tensions to destabilize a decade-long economic recovery. The timing of Powell's warning increases its significance. A comprehensive tariff policy had recently been implemented by the Trump administration, with a baseline duty of 10% on all U.S. imports and higher rates on key trading partners like 34% on China, 24% on Japan, and 46% on Vietnam. As part of Trump's aggressive trade strategy, these measures aim to protect American businesses and rectify perceived trade imbalances. However, Powell's remarks emphasize a growing concern that these measures may backfire and jeopardize the economic expansion that began after the Great Recession. Powell elaborated on the uncertainty clouding the economic horizon. He stated, "We face a highly uncertain outlook with elevated risks of both higher unemployment and higher inflation," pointing to the strain on the Fed's dual mandate of price stability and full employment. His remarks suggest that the central bank is preparing for a challenging time due to the possibility that tariffs will disrupt the delicate balance that it has attempted to maintain through careful monetary policy for years. The financial markets immediately reacted when Powell made his statement, causing panic on Wall Street. The Dow Jones Industrial Average experienced its steepest single-day decline since the volatility of March 2020 during the early pandemic, when it fell 1,600 points, or 3.8%. The S&P 500 fell 4.4% and the Nasdaq fell 5.7%, respectively, marking the market's worst performance since that turbulent period. Technology and manufacturing were the hardest hit, with Apple, Boeing, and Caterpillar seeing their stock prices fall by 8%, 7%, and 6%, respectively. The sale went beyond the borders of the United States. Wall Street's distress was mirrored by global markets, with the STOXX 600 in Europe losing 2.6% and the Nikkei 225 in Japan losing 3.2%. The widespread concern expressed by analysts was that tariffs would slow international trade, reduce consumer spending, and raise business costs. “Powell’s comments have heightened concerns about the economic outlook,” said Justin Onuekwusi, a portfolio manager at St James’s Place. Market volatility surged, with the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), Wall Street's "fear gauge," reaching its highest level since August 2024. "Investors are concerned that tariffs could set off a vicious cycle of retaliation that could escalate into a full-blown trade war that could cause the global economy to crash." Investors moved away from stocks and into safe-haven assets like the United States. The 10-year Treasury yield fell to just above 4%, a multi-month low, as a result of Treasury bonds. The rapid shift wiped out billions of dollars from the market, demonstrating the extent to which investors are concerned about the possible effects of the tariffs. A Double-Edged Sword: The Implications for the Economy Tariffs are, at their core, taxes on imported goods that are meant to boost domestic industries by making products from other nations less competitive. However, this protection comes at a cost. Businesses frequently pass on costs incurred as a result of rising import costs to consumers, increasing the price of goods and contributing to inflation. A 2019 study by the Peterson Institute for International Economics found that Trump’s earlier tariffs added $831 annually to the average American household’s expenses. The burden is anticipated to be increased further by the new, more expansive tariffs. In addition to threatening inflation, tariffs hinder economic growth by interfering with trade and creating uncertainty. In the face of unpredictable costs, businesses might put off making investments or hiring new employees, and consumers might cut back on spending as prices rise. The intensifying trade war was cited as a major driver by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in its recent reduction of its global growth forecast for 2025. This dual challenge—rising inflation paired with slowing growth—places the Federal Reserve in a precarious position as it strives to fulfill its mandate.
