China and the crisis that never comes – with Tom Orlik

This week we welcome Bloomberg’s Chief Economist, Tom Orlik, to discuss China and the widespread prediction that it's a bubble about to burst. Is the Chinese economy really on the cusp of collapse? Or have doom-mongers been getting it wrong?

Part 1 will cover the frequent oversimplification of the Chinese economy by outside observers, the long-term growth trajectory and how China performed during the Coronavirus outbreak.

Part 2 questions the impact of the US Election on US-China relations whilst also touching on its 2060 zero-carbon commitment.
