Growth Worries Hit Stocks, Trump's '100% Tariff' & UK Boardrooms' £8 Billion Warning

Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes.

On today's podcast:


(1) Worse-than-expected economic data is fuelling concerns of a broader global economic slowdown as concern shifts from inflation to growth.While the Fed has all but committed to reducing rates from their highest in more than two decades this month, investors have been scrutinizing economic data for clues as to the scope and pace of the reductions.

(2) China's core inflation cooled to the weakest in more than three years, fueling calls for greater efforts to boost households spending as weak demand puts the annual growth target under pressure."You leave the dollar and you're not doing business with the United States because we are going to put a 100% tariff on your goods," the Republican presidential nominee said at a rally in the battleground state of Wisconsin.

(3) Donald Trump pledged on Saturday to make it too costly for countries to shift away from using the US dollar, adding a new pillar to his tariff platform.

(4) Millions of UK pensioners are in line for an extra £500 next year, a boost the new Labour government hopes will contain a row that's raging over cuts to winter fuel subsidies for the elderly.

(5) British supermarket chain Asda is set to face a crucial stage in its equal pay fight with workers in what could form the tip of an £8 billion iceberg of claims against the biggest UK retailers.
