Hello, I'm Stephanie Flander's head of Bloomberg Economics. Now, if you listen to the first series of Stephanomics, you'll know. We don't think you can understand what's happening in the global economy just sitting behind a desk. You have to go out in the field. Maybe ask a small cosmetics manufacturer in California how President Trump's trade war has affected
her business. Yeah, it's been very stressful because I planned for but I didn't plan for an extra ten which is totally cutting into my my margins, so as it sucks like, it's very disturbing. Or go to Argentina to find out how our country gets permission from the International Monetary Fund to restructure its debts and impose capital controls and what it's all meant for the price of a cup of coffee in downtown Buenos Aires one month ago
was seventy two. Three weeks ago was eight. Two weeks ago, it's snatty and possibly the next week it is a handred business. Or maybe Spain to think about what an economy looks like when the birth rate has fallen through the floor. Here, it's very typical that you've met people even in your family or your friends that has zero
or one children. Is not easy to find people with Our moral children on Season two of Stephanomics will bring you all these stories and many more with the help of our more than a hundred and thirty economic reporters and economists around the world. And we won't just talk about problems. We're going to look hard at the solutions.
In the lead up to Bloomberg's second New Economy Forum in Beijing, where a select group of business leaders, politicians and thinkers are going to gather to chart a better course for trade, finance, international governance, and our climate will help lead the way for those debates here on Stephanomics, with not just on the ground insight from our journalists, but also debates and analysis from world renowned experts. You can suscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Will find us
on the Bloomberg terminal, website or app. That's Stephanomics, returning for a new series on October three, h
