summit in san francisco. in their first face—to—face talks in more than a year, they are expected to discuss the ongoing trade row between the two countries, as well as washington's measures to restrict beijing's access to advanced computer chips. the meeting comes as china's once—roaring economy struggles to recover from the the impact of the pandemic. earlier, i spoke to the executive director of the asian trade centre in singapore, deborah elms. she told me this conversation is an important first step. well, i think the most important part is that they've had a meeting. i mean, that sounds pretty modest, but after a lot of disruption through the trump years and then through the pandemic and then through the post—pandemic period, just having a conversation between the two leaders is critical to helping stabilise this rocky relationship. we talk a lot about the conflicts and economic differences, but how has this impacted customers and businesses? has there been much of an impact? certainly, if you're a us consumer, there's been a lot of an impact. although you might not realise it any longer. the tariffs remain in place that were put in by the trump administration at the beginning of his term. so you've been paying an awful lot more, up to 25% more, for a great range of products since that time. so there's definitely been an impact for customers. there's been an impact for businesses, who've had to reshuffle supply chains. depending on the sector that you're in, there's pressure due to continuing pressure to reach supply chains as those tensions continue to simmer and as they may escalate heading into an election year in the us and then who knows what comes beyond that? do you think this meeting will mean more businesses will be interested in doing business with china once again? i think it depends on which business it is. there are american companies that are based in china that will stay in china or intend to stay in china, there are some expanding, but american companies are still a bit wary about whether or not they should either increase or move into china. but that's not the case for a lot of other places, where they continue to see the benefits of being in an economy with more than a billion customers, that is extremely well linked to the global economy and that at least appears, for many outside the us businesses, to be trying to stabilise an important relationship. now let's take a look at what else is in the economic calendar this week. on tuesday, we will get the october reading for us inflation, with expectations that consumer prices moved a little higher last month. the following day, there are economic growth figures for the third quarter from japan. these numbers are expected to show the weak yen is helping to boost exports. also on wednesday, we get an economic health check from china, which has seen a sluggish post—pandemic recovery. we'll get numbers on retail sales, industrial production and unemployment. and on thursday, we'll be looking for indications of the effect of rising interest rates on the australian economy, when employment data for october is released. peter mcguire is chief executive at trading—point.com in sydney and he told me investors around the world will be keeping a close eye on that meeting betweenjoe biden and xijinping. i think a couple of good points that need to be discussed. naturally, geopolitical tensions, global economy, the slowing as far as chinese export market and the overall health of what's going on across asia, europe and, of course, into the us. so as they sit down, i think it should be reasonably positive, and that's the way it's going to be interpreted as far as both leaders coming together. it's been about a year since they have. the data in china has not really been heading in the direction that president xijinping is hoping for. so what can we expect to see later this week? well, this is the issue facing the global economy. the weak export numbers last week and you are looking at how that rolls this week as far as data points and the release of numbers. you have the retail sales and fixed asset production and industrial production. so as we take on board those numbers, what are they going to represent as far as the internal combustion of china and, naturally, trying to, you know, export their way out? with the bank of japan still reluctant to exit that easy policy, despite sustained inflation and weak yen above 150, what exactly do you expect that we will see later on this week? a little bit of a shrink as far as those gdp numbers. you've had three quarters of really extraordinary growth over the first and then this one, i think, will actually be a pull—back. so there's the first part. as you mentioned, ultra—loose policy from the do], and is the bank ofjapan governor prepared to do something in the early 24? and you've got that yen now 151, approaching 152 levels which is, well, from an export side, it's probably good, but from an import side, it may be hurting them tremendously. you're also going to get some labour statistics coming out of australia. what do you expect to see? surprise to the upside as far as the weak growth, then i think that that could be a positive tone. if they're stronger than expected, i feel as though there's probably a 50—50 toss of the coin as far as another december rate hike. we've just had one last week, and that would strengthen the australian dollar. australia's cybersecurity coordinator told local media dp world it is making progress to bring activities back online after a cyber attack. the breach halted operations at container terminals in melbourne, sydney, brisbane and fremantle. dp world australia manages about 40% of the goods that flow in and out of the country. former manchester united and england football star gary neville is counting on investors from around the world to buy properties in manchester. he's just launched a luxury hotel and apartment complex in the city, as part of his growing business empire. our asia business correspondent nick marsh caught up with the star, who is on a whirlwind trip to asia, where he's discussed property, man utd and that beckham documentary. we're launching the sales of our residential units, w—branded residencies, and we thought no better place to do that than singapore. we've obviously launched in manchester last week as well. so manchester, singapore, then we head over to china to hong kong and into dubai. now, you're off to china after this. i'm sure you're aware of everything happening with the property market there. is that something that's concerning you? i'm not concerned about it. i mean, we're not coming over here sort of saying that people have to buy. we're saying to people that this is, i think, a stellar project, an exemplar project in the city. a project that... i think we've got a building architecturally that could sit in any major international city in the world, and that's my view of manchester. it's a major international city now. and obviously, we'll take it over to beijing, into shanghai into hong kong and people will buy or they won't. we've got a lot of people locally in manchester that want to buy, but we want to make sure that this development is sold all around the world. w is a global project. they demand that from us. and we want the best, you know, we want the best that we can possibly get. ok, let's talk about man united, their potential takeover. just talk me through where you stand on that. there's absolutely i don't think much doubt now that sirjim radcliffe will come in as a minority shareholder in the next few weeks, maybe a couple of months, and try and forge a partnership with the glazerfamily who are, you know, i suppose in some ways, tainted at this moment in time in manchester. there's huge unrest at the way in which they are managing the club. so, you know, sir jim radcliffe is a very successful businessman. he's got great experience, you know, he's certainly not a fool, and i hope that, basically, with him coming in, it can transform and bring a new energy to the club, because it needs it badly. it really does. i just wanted to ask about that david beckham documentary. it seems like everybody has been watching it. a lot of people say you come out really well, that you're a really good friend, a loyal guy. does that surprise you? no, no! what do you think? what feedback have you got? has anybody been saying that to you? that is what a lot of people have been saying. i don't know, really. people have said that they saw me, but i've not seen a lot of feedback on it, really. i saw someone before said to me that they saw me, they were watching me yesterday and it was a shock to see me here — a woman in reception downstairs — but, no, not really. i think it's brilliant. i think it's brilliant, the way in which his career — which, obviously, i witnessed for a large part first—hand with england and manchester united — has been brought together into these four episodes. and ifeel like it reminds you of how great a football player he was. that's the thing that i feel really passionate about with david, being one of his best friends, that people sometimes talk about the other stuff, which is great, and what he's done is fantastic, but he was a great football player, who played for some of the best clubs in the world for 20 years. china's largest e—commerce company, alibaba group, says it recorded year—on—year sales growth during
