Midyear Outlook: Autos, Rates, Crypto Policy

In this week’s edition of the Bloomberg podcast, Bloomberg Intelligence analysts discuss what will shape the outlook for investment strategies and industries for the rest of 2023:

Europe Autos -- Michael Dean says reduced consumer confidence and rising interest rates point to fewer orders and declining prices.

US Rates Strategy -- Ira Jersey sees the yield curve steepening aggressively before year-end and may remain inverted until next year.

North American Auto Manufacturing -- Kevin Tynan says US automakers are keeping production well shy of the cyclical peak.

North America Railroads -- Lee Klaskow explains why earnings growth may have to wait until next year.

Global Crypto Policy -- Nathan Dean explains how US crypto policy favors stablecoins and decentralized tokens like Bitcoin.
