On today’s episode Dr. David Kelly is joined by Gabriela Santos, Global Market Strategist at J.P. Morgan Asset Management, to discuss the recent developments in China and how they fit into the context of China’s long term growth story. While Chinese markets were the strongest outperformers in the pandemic-stricken year of 2020, they have since experienced significant bumps along the road as a result of a new regulatory crackdown and resurgence of coronavirus cases. This has weighed on equity market sentiment and caused some steep market selloffs. Is the China investment thesis still alive and well? Other discussion topics include: China’s 5-10 year growth outlook, its declining birth rate, President Xi Jinping’s emphasis on targeting inequality, U.S.-China relationship under the Biden administration, the situation with Taiwan, and the strength of Chinese fixed income markets year-to-date.
