Ten Minutes On... The Fragile State of the Global Economy

In this episode of Ten Minutes On…, we explore the shifting landscape of the global economy in 2025. From renewed US-China trade talks and China’s rare earth export controls to signs of deflation in Beijing and cautious optimism from central banks in Europe, India, and the US — what do these developments tell us about where the world economy might be heading? We unpack the data, the diplomacy, and the politics behind the headlines, and ask whether this moment signals a recovery or just another turn in a decade of uncertainty.
