Sound Economies with Mel & Peter: 11 June 2025
US and China have reached an agreement to scale down the tariff war, but we see that China-focused investors pay closer attention to domestic concerns over global trade shifts. We also talk about China’s sovereign fund interfering in the stock market, Japan’s plan to revoke duty-free shopping for foreign tourists, and US asset manager Blackstone’s plan to invest $500 billion in Europe.
“Sound Economies with Mel & Peter” is a weekly podcast show where our founding CEO Peter Lundgreen and Manila-based Chief Economist Mel Lopez discuss what’s happening in economies around the world and their views of the global financial markets.
