About this episode

Global stocks rebounded yesterday following the worst week for the S&P 500 since March 2023, as investors await US inflation data for clues on the size of the US Federal Reserve’s coming interest-rate cut. Meanwhile, weakness in Chinese equities is intensifying as a benchmark of onshore Chinese stocks hovers near its lowest close since January 2019. Manuel Villegas, Next Generation Research, provides an update on the latest price moves in digital assets and how US politics and macroeconomics are impacting Bitcoin.
