January 22, 2025 Episode 21: Trade with China under Trump 2.0
Donald Trump is back in the White House, and his policy actions are being watched closely by the markets and the world at large. Trump’s tariff plans — including those toward China — feature prominently in his policy rhetoric. Yet China’s global manufacturing dominance persists, and the United States remains reliant on it for imports. How will U.S. trade with China change in a second Trump administration? Join host Brent Robinson, Head of Research for Japan, Australia, North & South Asia, as he discusses this topic in detail with Johanna Chua, Head of Emerging Markets Economics.

January 16, 2025 Episode 20: The Resilient Global Economy & Trump 2.0
The global economy continues to defy expectations, powering ahead over the past couple years even amid interest rate hikes, geopolitical instability, and other headwinds. With consumer spending still strong and central banks having largely turned more dovish, 2025 is starting from a favorable setup. Meanwhile, President Trump takes office again next week, vowing tough tariffs and tax cut extensions. What will the net impact be? And what of China and the rest of the world? Chief Economist Nathan Sheets shares his views on these and other topics with host Rob Rowe.

January 09, 2025 Episode 19: 2025 Outlook — Expecting a Volatile Bull
How will U.S. equities perform in 2025? That’s the key question in our first episode of the year, where Rob Rowe talks to U.S. equity strategist Scott Chronert about the market’s current positioning and his outlook for the S&P 500. Scott explains how ongoing soft-landing and AI tailwinds now interact with Trump policy promises (and risks), how he views the performance of the index’s Magnificent Seven versus “the other 493”, and how his bull and bear case assumptions help frame an expectation for increased volatility in the year ahead.

December 11, 2024 Episode 18: Cybersecurity — New Risks, Expanding Threats
Cybersecurity and its attendant threats have undergone a renaissance in the last decade. Enterprise cloud adoption, a work-from-anywhere culture, and greater Internet connectivity among devices have brought myriad benefits — and risks.

Defense spending is on the rise amid the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, and the United States is also looking to deter threats and avoid conflict elsewhere in the world.

Join Citi’s Rob Rowe, U.S. Regional Director of Research, and Jason Gursky, U.S. Aerospace & Defense Analyst, as they talk about the current spending priorities of the U.S. and its allies, how Silicon Valley is helping drive innovation in defense, and the importance of deploying assets in the ultimate high ground: space.

October 09, 2024 Episode 12: The Evolution of Sustainable Investment
Despite media reports to the contrary, sustainable investment looks here to stay: an estimated $35 trillion in assets have a sustainable investment mandate.

Europe, UK, Middle East and Africa Research, and Anita McBain, Head of Sustainable Investment Research, as they discuss the work Anita and her team are doing to understand how the sector is evolving, how investors are approaching it, and what 2025 is likely to bring.
