  • Abysmal headlines

    I know this applies to the whole podcast, not specific episodes, but this is a bad apple that ruins the whole barrel. 'Debt ceiling crash will have few victims' is the title of 5/25/23. Listen to the podcast to hear that potential impacts are 'a recession' 'a 20% stock market decline' and who will it hurt 'everyone'

  • Content OK, Audio terrible!

    For a media org with the scope of these guys you’d think they could produce a weekly podcast that sounds better than a grade school musical.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Takaichi’s success may backfire on Japan
Q: When it comes to the $2.3 trillion investment push, how much is the JGB, the government bond market a limit to that?
Lockett says markets are concerned about Japan's high debt-to-GDP ratio and the possibility that years of government-led spending will push it higher. Although much of the debt is held by the Bank of Japan and the plan is spread over several years, he cautions against assuming market calm will last.
Takaichi’s success may backfire on Japan
Q: What was the situation in Japan's economy before Takaichi came to power?
Japan was emerging from a long deflationary slump after Abenomics, with inflation returning and the Bank of Japan beginning to normalize interest rates. That inflation also created political pressure and made financing new measures more difficult.
China-EU auto wars drive to in-Seine level
Q: Are Chinese car makers set to continue increasing their sales in Europe?
Hamlin expects Chinese sales to keep growing, but says the companies face headwinds including trade restrictions, falling domestic sales, reduced export rebates, stricter safety rules, and uncertainty over European localization requirements.
China-EU auto wars drive to in-Seine level
Q: From the Chinese side, how would you interpret this agreement?
Hamlin says the agreement was more substantial than expected because it covers all hybrids, more than 40 percent of Chinese imports into the EU, rather than only plug-in hybrids. She views it as a sign that policymakers are prepared to let weaker automakers struggle and that Beijing has confidence in stronger makers' ability to adapt.
AI enthusiasm’s breaking point
Q: Were Anthropic's results really that disappointing? Did it warrant the kind of reaction that you saw among investors?
Kwok says Anthropic's reported growth slowed, while OpenAI competition and lower token prices may have contributed. She notes that AI usage is increasing, but not enough to maintain the growth investors anticipated, and the companies' overall profitability and ability to fund commitments remain uncertain.
