as posted by the channel

Max from @UNFTR reflects on a difficult week for the US and global economy. As Donald Trump visited China for the first summit since 2017, the bond market was melting down and the stock market was melting up. Inflation data continued to worsen as the week went on and import/export data show that we’re exporting as much inflation as we’re importing. Meanwhile in New York City, Zohran Mamdani is putting on a masterclass on how to govern. This is the Macro Take exclusively for the Meidas Touch Network.
