Europe’s fears about China trade threat miss the point

Europe’s political and business leaderships appear to have concluded that China’s economic dominance represents an existential threat – not from intrinsic competitiveness but from subsidies, technology theft, state-owned enterprises and a pervasive industrial policy. Cecilia Malmstrom, former European Commission member and a member of the European Parliament, wrote this week about “an ever more aggressive China”, which “seems to be entering a new phase of industrial policy with an increase of...

The potential strike over wages could have threatened smooth operations offshore Norway, Western Europe's top oil and gas producer, at a time when the world is scrambling for oil and gas supply amid the Middle East crisis.

Why are fewer Hong Kong youth in education, work or training than Asian peers?

A mismatch in the job market, declining demand for junior roles and relatively comfortable living conditions among Hong Kong’s youth have contributed to a higher share of young people not in education, employment or training (NEETs) compared with other Asian economies, observers have said. Their comments on Friday followed government figures released in response to lawmaker Elvin Lee Ka-kui, showing the city’s NEET rate at 6 per cent.

What if the 2008 collapse, SVB, and GLD's April drop all had the same structural signal weeks before price moved?
