Description
In 1972, with Nixon’s visit to Beijing, the world watched as the political and economic landscape between China and the US changed dramatically. Four decades later, new political heads of state redefined the relationship once again, as Xi Jinping and Donald Trump took power – and aim at each other’s economies. This time, the world is watching ever more eagerly and apprehensively as the top two economic powerhouses vie for supremacy; whatever happens in the next five years will affect everyone in the world.Here to help explain the relationship between the US and China is Andy Rothman, an Investment Strategist at Matthews Asia and an expert on China. He spent 14 years as CLSA’s China Macroeconomic Strategist and, prior to that, 17 years in the US Foreign Service, including his role as Head of the Macroeconomics and Domestic Policy Office of the US Embassy in Beijing. In total, Andy has lived and worked in China for more than 20 years. He now lives near San Francisco.Our sources for the show: FT resources, US State Department, Richard Nixon Foundation, C-SPAN, Nikkei Asia, Reuters, The Washington Post.
