ABC Business News – U.S.-China trade talks and market insights
I joined Kirsten Aiken on ABC News earlier this week to discuss the recent U.S.-China trade talks. While these discussions aimed to reinforce the trade truce established last month in Geneva, they primarily offered a framework without substantial new commitments, leaving investors largely unimpressed. The prevailing concern among investors, however, is the perceived gradual shift of the U.S. towards authoritarianism, which is creating significant unease in the markets.
We also discussed ZipCo pay’s improved performance, with the company reporting their transaction volume in the U.S. had jumped over 40 per cent year on year (YoY). They attributed this success to increased market share and innovation.
We also touched on the news that Qantas is closing their Intra-Asia airline JetStar Asia next month due to costs incurred from their fleet renewal program – and what this means for investors.
