Description
Chinese annual GDP has come in at its second-worst rate since the Cultural Revolution, growing at only 3 per cent – well below its official 5.5 per cent target. The country’s population also contracted for the first time in six decades. We hear from Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez who says the EU should follow the U.S. lead on fighting inflation and that he hopes a trade war could be avoided. The World Economic Forum kicks off in its annual winter slot for the first time since 2020 in Davos. ‘Polycrisis’ and fragmentation risks are two central themes this year as the IMF warns the developing world is falling behind. Up to two-thirds of global economists are braced for recession within a year while CEO confidence has fallen to a more than 10-year low. And in Japan, the BoJ holds its two-day policy meeting. The 10-year JGB has surpassed the 0.5 per cent threshold for the third consecutive session.
