Avengers: Endgame is on track to become the highest grossing movie of all time.

Endgame is one of five movies to ever reach that mark and, not accounting for inflation, is now the second biggest film of all time worldwide behind Avatar's $2.8 billion.

US Fed leaves rates unchanged, downplays inflation concerns
The Fed's fears over low inflation have been mounting, with Powell recently calling it "one of the major challenges of our time". Last week, it was reported that the USA economy grew at a surprisingly strong 3.2% annual rate in the January-March quarter.

Also, 'Avatar' was playing on fewer screens than 'Avengers: Endgame', China being a key case in point.

United Nations to declare Masood Azhar a ‘global terrorist today
India has been asking Pakistan to hand over Saeed and Azhar to try them for the terror attacks launched in the country. He also rejected the UN's move as a "victory for India and validation of its stance" as projected by the Indian media.

"Avengers: Endgame" continues to dominate at the box office and has become the second highest grossing movie of all time. 189 billion, thereby breaking Titanic's record. Its U.S. box office is already over $619 million, and it has another massive $1.569 billion from global audiences, with its Chinese box office at a whopping $575 million. "That means 'Avatar' would have grossed some $150 million more here than its $760 million domestic total in today's dollars, a number that actually puts the global total of 'Avatar' near the $3 billion mark", its report pointed out. But it remains to be seen if Avengers: Endgame will have the legs to take it down. The film starring Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen mustered up $10 million, which is a bit of a disappointment for the best reviewed new release of the weekend, though it did only land a "B" CinemaScore. Not only is 'Avengers: Endgame' a direct sequel to 'Avengers: Infinity War', it's the culmination of the previous 20-plus titles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), a blockbuster series of films that commenced with "Iron Man' in 2008". It seems like Avengers: Endgame is just too much of a draw for audiences to see much of anything else. With Detective Pikachu coming to theaters next week, it's fairly unlikely, but Endgame has proven that nothing is impossible for this movie.
