Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes.
On today’s podcast:
(1) China’s economy showed surprising strength in early 2025 with a sharp uptick in March, though a trade impasse with Donald Trump has prompted calls for stimulus to offset the tariff shock.
(2) President Donald Trump called on China to reach out to him in order to kick off negotiations aimed at resolving the escalating trade fight between the world’s two largest economies.
(3) President Donald Trump’s administration has barred Nvidia from selling its H20 chip to China, an escalation of Washington’s tech battle with Beijing that will cost the company billions of dollars and hamstring a product line it explicitly designed to comply with previous US curbs.
(4) Import prices for March came in soft – but not soft enough. Bloomberg Economics’s calculations of tariff-inclusive import prices indicate that, two months into Trade War 2.0, US importers have borne the brunt of almost all the tariffs so far.
(5) Americans are increasingly looking for jobs in Britain amid President Donald Trump’s funding cuts and a darkening economic outlook.
(6) Donald Trump’s push to reshape global trade and security has shocked European markets into life, driving investors to assets from stocks to bonds and the euro, in a way few could have imagined even 6 months ago.
