    How Donald Trump Became India’s New Best Friend

    On this episode of Trumponomics, we discuss why India stands to gain from the US trade war with China and the rest of the world. Host Stephanie Flanders speaks with Bloomberg senior editor Chris Anstey and reporter Shruti Srivastava, as well as Bloomberg Economics senior India economist Abhishek Gupta. They look at how India has been able to pull ahead of rivals as the US roils the world, and specifically whether the Republican in the White House may unintentionally be boosting the South Asian nation’s long-term ambitions to replace China as the “factory of the world.”  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Trump May Not Be Done With Powell Yet

    What are the long-term implications of Donald Trump's attacks on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell? Host Stephanie Flanders is joined by Krishna Guha, vice chairman of Evercore ISI and head of its Global Policy and Central Bank Strategy Team, and Bloomberg managing editor Kate Davidson.  “Up to this point, the market has confidence that the Fed will do whatever turns out to be necessary to prevent this initial, very big wave of one-time tariff inflation,” Guha says. “But that’s premised on the idea the Fed is free to do what it judges as needed.” As bad as Trump’s trade war has been for markets, Guha warns that if Wall Street begins to doubt Fed independence, things could get much worse.

    Is This America's Liz Truss Moment?

    On this week’s episode of Trumponomics, we discuss what the rollout of President Donald Trump’s tariff plan has taught us about the Administration's economic strategy and the future of the US economy. In Trump’s first term, market participants could count on the President adjusting policy if it seemed to be hurting the stock market. Now recession and inflation risks are rising and both the stock market and the US sovereign bond market are flashing red but it’s not clear that the President and his advisors even care.Host Stephanie Flanders, Bloomberg’s head of government and economics, is joined by senior editor Ed Harrison, author of Bloomberg’s Everything Risk newsletter and Bloomberg’s senior national political correspondent, Nancy Cook.

    The Roots of Trump’s Global Trade War with Martin Wolf

    US President Donald Trump’s administration said it’s still finalizing plans to unveil what could be a barrage of new tariffs on America’s trading partners around the world. Trump contends he is waging his global trade war to fix a system he considers unfair to the US. On this week's Trumponomics podcast, we’re going to look at this strategy. But rather than analyze the potential economic impact, we instead look at how the world arrived at this moment.Host Stephanie Flanders is joined by Martin Wolf, chief economics commentator at the Financial Times. They discuss whether the countries now in the firing line of America’s tariffs (and primed to retaliate in kind) should have seen Trump’s trade war coming. They also explore how the trade imbalances the US administration is targeting aren’t an accident and can potentially lead to an unstable global economy.
