Introduction:

In today's episode, we explore three compelling stories shaping the global financial landscape. First, Wall Street experts warn that the record high US home bias poses significant risks to investors. Meanwhile, India’s remarkable 118% five-year market surge positions it as the next major growth story. We’ll discuss why this extreme investor concentration serves as a classic contrarian signal and what it implies for capital flows into emerging markets. Next, Denmark suffers a £1.4 billion loss in a tax fraud case after a UK court criticizes its "non-existent" controls, putting at risk Europe’s €150 billion effort to recover funds from "cum-ex" schemes. We analyze how this ruling might trigger a 'Dumb Government Discount,' increasing borrowing costs for European countries with weak institutions. Finally, as Douyin’s sales soar by 46%, Western brands are forced to reinvent their strategies in China. Despite this, luxury giants like LVMH still experience a 16% sales drop. We break down the rise of "interest e-commerce" and the influential "Guochao" trend, and consider what these shifts mean for global brand strategies.
