All of that bodes well for walmart which is forecast to report a 4 rise in sales. Results from the Worlds Largest retailer should also offer a glimpse into demand for back to school items. Traders are hoping that, despite higher borrowing costs, it will show that us shoppers are still willing to spend on essentials. Staying with retail, jd. Com beat analysts� forecast for Second Quarter revenue which rose more than 7 to nearly 40 billion. The chinese e commerce giants Focus On Lower priced products paid off in the fight for customers amid an economic slowdown. The company said it attracted more vendors to its platform and its users shopped more frequently as It Product Range expanded. It was a different story however for tencent where Earning Results came in below estimates in the Second Quarter. Revenue grew 11 to just over 20 billion. Tencent� s core Gaming Business experienced weaker than expected growth. Domestic Gaming Revenue was little changed, a sign that the economic slowdown in china has hurt the tech giants recovery from a record slump last year. Well, lets turn to Us Government bonds, which are typically considered a safe haven investment. Well, demand for those bonds, commonly known as us treasuries has held up, despite a downgrade by Fitch Ratings agency at the start of the month. And a report by Moodys Investors Service calling china and japan have typically been some of the biggest foreign buyers of us treasuries, and that has helped to fund the massive us debt pile. Earlier i spoke to fixed income expert stephen major, who told me the downgrade has had little impact on the global economy. So far theres not been that much of an impact. And youre right, theres still plenty of demand for us treasuries. I guess it might be a bit of a nudge for all of the authorities involved in the us to get the house in order over the longer term. But right now theres no Meaningful Movement in the yields. If anything, were pretty much the same. Overnight we were seeing reports that theres a real appetite for short term bonds. How do you describe this phenomenon . You can see the appetite in the yield level compared to the official rates from the fed. So the T Bill Yields actually sit on the lower end of the range, which shows there must be a huge demand for them. And if you think about it, were talking about yields of above 5 in totally risk free assets. You will get your money back, whatever. And its in dollars. So investors in asia have no problem buying these securities. You know, 5 is something people havent seen for a long time also. And its a good level of saving for most people given the expected outlook for inflation. Well, lets take a look at agriculture and South East Asia and how Climate Change and the el nino Weather Patterns are affecting Food Production in the region. The United Nations says global rice prices have surged around 30 this year. And according to some experts, these extreme weather conditions stress the need to use more modern techniques in farming in asia. Deepak moorti is an Agriculture Specialist with the Consultancy FirmMckinsey And Company and he earlier he told me how Climate Change is acting as a catalyst for change in global food markets. I think if we talk about Climate Change in general, there are two things that we see will happen. Number one is the fact that its the main catalyst for Supply Shocks and a prolonged period of Price Volatility in the food supply chain. And the second one is the fact that it will be the main driver for men and food to compete for land and water. Now, the second one is particularly worrying given that we have a growing population to feed. But the good news is there are potential ways to plug this leakages, and the benefits of this can be quite significant. The way to think about it is to split it across two main lenses one from the pre harvest lens and the second one from a post harvest lens. Your report makes suggestions about changing Farming Practices. Give us an example. So when we think about Farming Practices and i think the report referred more towards post harvest practices, we were referring to things that impact the value chain post harvesting. So an example of that is really around supply chain efficiencies, starting from how the farmer harvests their produce. So within South East Asia, a lot of the cereal crops are still manually harvested, which results in a lot of losses. So one of the ways to improve that would be to use a mechanised version of it. Now, have you heard about Clean Air Zones . Well, they are already in operation in hundreds of traffic choked cities across europe. Londons Ultra Low Emission Zone is starting later this month and will become one of the Worlds Largest to tackle Air Pollution. Katy austin took a look at how Clean Air Zones have been working in other parts of england. Signs like these have become a common sight. Wevejust entered birminghams Clean Air Zone. Its been in Operation Forjust over two years now, and its one of seven that have sprung up in cities around england over the past few years. Here, driving an older, more polluting car or van means an e8 daily charge in one residential area. We got a sense of how opinions remain divided. Some people welcomed the zone and even said it should be stricter. A lot of people live here, 0k, especially kids, at least those cars, which makes a lot of pollution. I think we should consider in a direction of banning them. Others strongly objected. Because im disabled, i dont have to pay, but i would have to pay if i wasnt disabled. But theres a lot of people around here struggling to put food on the table. And as for the Clean Air Zone, no, it wont work because the people that round here wont be able to afford other cars. The manager of this shop did manage to switch to a car that doesnt attract a charge, but hes still felt a financial hit. Order something from my shop. The first question they ask me, are you in the zone or out of the Charging Zone . So once you say im inside the Charging Zone, theyre going to add £8 for your delivery. Clean air zones have come in after the government told a number of councils to bring down Air Pollution to within legal limits as quickly as possible. Birmingham City Council Told us the proportion of the most polluting vehicles entering the zone had more than halved to 6. 4 since it was introduced. But in the famous jewellery quarter, staff at this business say however much they support the principle, its come at a cost. Weve noticed a definite drop in footfall. Theres been a lot of confusion in what cars are allowed and what cars are not allowed. The money raised goes towards running the scheme and then to local transport related projects. In bradford, the Clean Air Zone is slightly different. The rules here mean that there isnt a charge for private cars driving into the zone, but there is one for taxis, vans, lorries and coaches if they dont meet the emission standards. The council says 98 of local taxis now do helped by grants. So has the scheme worked so far . Its still too early to tell. We need to wait until the Clean Air Zone has been in place for at least a year to be able to look at the impact on Air Pollution, but also to be able to look at the impact on health in bradford. Its already proved a practical headache for this Delivery Firm based literally around the corner from the Clean Air Zone boundary. Bosses here say grants to help replace their non compliant vehicles would not have covered the cost. So now its a case of avoiding charges wherever possible. We have a team that have to look at what vehicle can go into what area. Its not always feasible to send a large load in. We understand why theyre doing it. We just sometimes think that, you know, sometimes its rushed and its not a lot of thoughts going in. The businesses are just trying to make a living. They say the patchwork around the country can also be confusing. Straying into a different city zone can prove a costly mistake. Plans to introduce a Clean Air Zone in manchester are under review amid growing discussion of the best way to clean up the air without hitting people too hard in the wallet. Katy austin, bbc news.
