Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, A single best idea,
Speaker 1: just an extraordinary day. Thank you to David Gura for
Speaker 1: reporting from the side of a river with all of
Speaker 1: that history of Ottawa and Canada on the selection historic moment.
Speaker 1: Of course, all tied into a huge emotion between the
Speaker 1: President of the United States talking about a fifty first
Speaker 1: state and the defense that the people of Canada feel
Speaker 1: good morning to Mexico as well, we should say we
Speaker 1: don't want to forget the challenges with our neighbor to
Speaker 1: the south. It was such an honor to speak to
Speaker 1: David Dodge today. He is a venerable Governor of the
Speaker 1: Bank of Canada, a vibrant eighty one years old, and
Speaker 1: he gave us wonderful perspective. Perspective as well on China.
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Economy is definitive America on an analysis of China
Speaker 1: earned credibility from the University of Michigan years ago. Here's
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Economy of the Hoover Institute out at Stanford University
Speaker 1: on this moment for America in China.
Speaker 2: I think it depends on how long the president stumbles
Speaker 2: and in which direction I mean. I think there's a stumble,
Speaker 2: one might say on the tariffs. There's a stumble on,
Speaker 2: you know, undercutting investment in our universities. There's probably a
Speaker 2: stumble in moving away from clean energy, which is you know,
Speaker 2: the choice of most of the world for the twenty
Speaker 2: first century. So while we're looking backwards to the nineteen fifties.
Speaker 3: And the rest of the world is looking to twenty fifties.
Speaker 3: I think there are a number of different stumbles, but
Speaker 3: it really we're only one hundred days into this administration,
Speaker 3: and there's plenty of time for I think course correction.
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Economy there of Stanford University, a new book scheduled
Speaker 1: out next year. I know from we should note a
Speaker 1: public service to Jinieimando at Commerce in the previous administration,
Speaker 1: joining US as well. Today, Ethan Harris retired but not
Speaker 1: left Bank of America, and Day one wrote on LinkedIn,
Speaker 1: brilliant work. Can't say enough about the constructive knowledge that
Speaker 1: I see in my LinkedIn feed, and part of that
Speaker 1: is from Ethan Harris. Here's Ethan Harris on the FED
Speaker 1: in the moment for America.
Speaker 4: I think that a commist would agree that you need
Speaker 4: to deal with China and the unfair trade practices of China,
Speaker 4: but that's not what they're doing. China should be the focus.
Speaker 4: Why are we beating up on Canada and Mexico. We
Speaker 4: have a free trade agreement with them, they are closest allies.
Speaker 4: Why are we beating up on Europe. Europe's trade is
Speaker 4: relatively unfettered with the United States, so it's not the
Speaker 4: right way to go about it. The tariffs should be
Speaker 4: focused on issues of geopolitics and on unfairness, not this
Speaker 4: kind of US against everyone. America alone is not a
Speaker 4: good policy.
Speaker 1: Ethan Harris. They're talking about the China, the geopolitics at
Speaker 1: the moment, and of course how it folds back into
Speaker 1: the FED. He says, he gave the FED very very
Speaker 1: high marks within that extended conversation on your community across
Speaker 1: the nation. Thank you so much for listening. Seeing more
Speaker 1: and more of Android Auto and Apple CarPlay on YouTube again,
Speaker 1: I am overwhelmed by this digital power that is YouTube.
