Why Britain Isn’t Such a Basket Case Anymore, at Least to Investors

Why Britain Isn’t Such a Basket Case Anymore, at Least to Investors

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

On today's podcast:

(1) There’s a new sense of optimism in the UK as a global investment destination ahead of a general election later this year. A two-month investigation by Bloomberg Radio's Caroline Hepker has many of London's business elite increasingly upbeat about the future of the economy.

(2) China set its annual growth target at around 5%, raising expectations for the nation’s top leaders to unleash more stimulus as they try to lift confidence in an economy hampered by a property slump and entrenched deflation.

(3) JPMorgan Chase's chief market strategist Marko Kolanovic joins in a chorus of rapidly piling up warnings from Wall Street that are hearkening back to the dot-com boom of the late-1990s, or the post-pandemic mania of 2021, when stock prices quickly ballooned and then burst.

(4) A bank group spearheaded by Morgan Stanley held discussions with Elon Musk and his team about refinancing a roughly $12.5 billion debt package that supported the tech billionaire’s take-private of the social media platform X, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

(5) The US Supreme Court said Donald Trump can appear on presidential ballots this year, putting an end to efforts nationwide to ban him under a rarely used constitutional provision barring insurrectionists from holding office.
