To make sure it is available when needed for review and investigation pushback from the u. S. Side on those regulations include recent comments on the law from u. S. Secretary of state mike pompei o who insisted on the free flow of information ahead of an official visit to india later this month on monday the indian commerce minister yall and r. B. I. Officials met with representatives of tech and Credit Card Companies including the c. E. O. Of master card. The Ministry Later released a statement that said Indian Officials quote assured the industry representatives that the reserve bank of india will look into this. And often overshadowed by the us china trade war is the brewing trade to between india and the United States similarly many may not realize just how integra india is to the Global Economy while most of us are aware that products are assembled in china and then distributed globally most obvious is the role that india has in terms of business integration in the world where china is widely recognized as an outsourcing destination for manufacturing as were. In the rust belt of the United States can attest to india has shaped itself as a hub for service jobs and the rapidly developing knowledge economy according to the India Brand Equity Foundation or ib if the Service Sector made up more than 54 percent of indias g. D. P. Which comes out to more than 60000000000. 00 worth of net Service Exports the Service Sector consists of many areas but notably among them is the Communications Sector which has seen a boost in the numbers of Call Service Center jobs that have been outsourced to the nation also at the top of the a list of indian Service Sector jobs are tourism transport trade and construction so much like cheaper and manufacturing is on the line in the us is trade war with china could we soon see these services put on the line and get another front of a trade war here to dig a little deeper into the dilemma alan grayson former United States representative welcome to the show thank you congressman as we just noted the u. S. China trade war is making headlines but trade tension is increasing beats tween the u. S. And india as well on monday specifically the Government Indian government impose tariffs on 28. 00 u. S. Products including all mines and apples valued at a relatively small amount 1400000000. 00 in goods but its noticeable notable that this happened despite superficial resemblance is and affinities between Prime MinisterNarendra Modi and President Trump and the u. S. And india is growing Security Alliance is this tariff decision that came despite those ties an indicator of where the u. S. India relationship is headed in the near future. Well the President Trump basically lurched into this crisis with india by randomly imposing tariffs on products just because he was familiar with what they were steel aluminum a lot of 19th century Industrial Products that india efforts to be very strong and so when he imposed those tariffs he may have thought that he was helping production in the midwest or whatever it is that a man like that thinks if you gave you called thinking what he was really doing was hitting certain countries in certain ways and india just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time now for domestic reasons their government cant just take a hit they have to somehow indicate that theyre standing up to trump so thats why they impose these tariffs retaliation this week but its really much ado about nothing its simply a blindfolded man staggering around with the sound in front of them and you know you mentioned those metal tariffs which. Its been under play but its the hitting u. S. Allies japan canada its been an issue with mexico but also so the metal shares have had india as well but on the u. S. Side the trumpet ministration also removed india from g s p trade preferences system was that a good move. Well d. S. P. Is basically a form of foreign aid what we do is we say theres certain products that are made by human beings in other countries and people who live close to the land and many cases we dont want those people out to pay tariffs because were taking food out of their mouths and keeping them from making a living so basically whats happened here is that theyve decided looking at the situation with india in particular weve got a significant trade deficit with india about 20 now 30000000000. 00 a year nothing like our trade deficit with china which is 400000000000. 00 a year but they decided the india really didnt need that particular form of foreign aid its not a bad decision its not a good decision its something with arguments on both sides ok fair enough and secretary of state mike pompei o is set to meet with the Indian Foreign minister on July July July june 28th and 29th ahead of the g 20 summit if you could write the briefing paper an agenda for the secretary what would you tell mr pompei about that meeting. Well we have very few Strategic Interests bring us together with india either for or against so i think this gives the latitude to act as sort of a big brother for a country another democracy of 1000000000 people struggling to reach the modern age what i would do is suggest that he discuss with Prime Minister modi the need that india include everybody in their development the government is sort of a hindu based government and has been a little bit rough on that already is of various kinds over the years he should make it clear that our experience is the only way to make everybody better off is to make everybody better off and then includes people who are been already is or otherwise less fortunate i also think that someone needs to point out to the Prime Minister that archaic Banking System and Poor Public Services are Holding India back from its development. India needs a Good Health Care system india needs a Good Transportation system india needs better Public Services of all kind and less corrupt Public Services of all kind and again the is something we tell him not because its going to benefit us directly but because we have the experience of 300 years of industrialization and a great. Standard of living that they aspire to in india and looking at sort of an economic game theory this us in india had 142000000000. 00 in bilateral trade in 2018 according to the u. S. State department and as you note in yourselves more to the u. S. And vice versa theyve got a 20000000000. 00 trade surplus with the United States so they would seem to have more to lose from a fight but the Indian Chamber of commerce says that bilateral trade could reach as high as 500000000000. 00 over the next 5 years and he also has the 600000000. 00 Internet Users that Companies Like facebook and amazon would like to reach so theyve got real assets here whats the real balance of power of interests here when india has so much growth potential. Well certainly our Major Tech Companies can grow substantially in india if india shows a greater respect for our intellectual property and thats probably the biggest single element of whats called going on here but the fact is that our trade with india is minor very minor compared to our trade with europe or trade with china its on par with our trade with australia and new zealand and it isnt a big factor in our trade deficit or anything similar to that essentially what they do in india is they import from china and export to us thats their whole thing and that includes services as well as goods thats reasonable it doesnt really hurt us in any way it does provide us with a different layer of cheap services that we would otherwise be able to get from a non English Speaking country and trysting insights from former u.

Welcome back to Ali Baba Group has proposed a 1. 00 to 8. 00 stock split ahead of it as yet to be official listing in hong kong which could net 20000000000. 00 for the online commerce giant the proposal for the stock split will be presented at the companys annual general meeting in hong kong on the 15th of july on the news ali babas stock which is traded on the n. Y. S. E. Spiked 5 percent topping out just over one 168. 00 meanwhile the chinese giant also made other moves on tuesday announcing the chief Financial Officer maggie wu will take over for executive vice chairman joe side overseeing the. Strategic acquisitions and Investment Unit side will stay on to help woo in the new position the announcement is the companys 1st shake up since 2018 when ali babas cofounder jack ma said he would step down and be replaced by current c. E. O. Daniel zhang as chairman of the company. And with no side to the u. S. China trade war china is shifting gears the country is moving away from its u. S. Investments and joined forces with some American Allies to boost its own economy are challenged televisions in toronto with more welcome alex alex chinas holdings of u. S. Treasuries are at a 2 year low many are saying this is directly related to the trade war is it. Best answer is probably yes chinas sending signals to the u. S. We know that this war has gotten worse as time has progressed so you know a poke here or a poke there this is what we can do this is what were not going to do thats what basically china say now according to the u. S. Treasury department and this is sort of gives you an idea of what exactly china is doing the Treasury Department says China Holdings of us notes bills and bonds decreased by 7500000000 in april now if you look at the amount that actually china holds which is 1 point one trillion 7500000000 is not that much as mentioned its just probably signaling and look its 7 percent of all u. S. Debt is held by china if china wanted to do the option that some people are talking about theyre calling it the Nuclear Option while it would be a very different game if the debt Interest Rates that the u. S. Are paying would go up that could american dollar would go down and that would be a real hit to the United States of america but lets look at the big picture a poor United States and United States that cant buy is not worth much to china its the biggest market for its sales so china would like to see the states say stay healthy they would like to get out of this trade war sooner than later because the more money americans have to buy stuff im going to use the nice word stuff the more money that john is going to make because that its their materials its their goods thats what you find at your local walmart and everywhere else so for china right now this is a poke here a poke theyre telling the United States this is what we could do. But in the long run we want to see you be healthy and strong otherwise i mean if we keep pushing china to the corner you know what dragon want to get saying it gets really angry and you dont want to see that happen because you just could be one of those situations you cut off your nose to spite your face type of thing where china will say you know what weve had enough well go down in flames with you just to show you what we can do to you some signals definitely seen the beings seem to be being sent at the moment things dont look like theyre Getting Better between the u. S. And china you know we did have this announcement that President Trump will have a long meeting he said with president xi later this month so chinas looking elsewhere to help its economy one of these places is arguably the u. S. This is greatest ally the u. K. Whats going on there. You know the u. K. When they see an opportunity they like to jump on it and this is one of those situations were talking about the shanghai stock market and were talking about british stocks or u. K. Stocks being sold there and vice versa so its an opening of markets to 2 different groups of people its absolutely massive so when you look at this the u. K. Listed firms will be the 1st among foreign firms to be listed on the shot in Shanghai Stock Exchange this is this is huge and like i said you can be back and forth so the markets have opened up in a big way once but this goes down theyre calling it the london shanghai stock connect and companies on both ends will benefit if this actually does push through and it looks like its operating so you know what tightening up with the brits theyre getting more money in from from europe thats exactly whats going to go down when more Chinese Companies are listed on the London Exchange and vice a versa when the when the brits start giving more money and store buying companies and. The chinese buying british stocks as well and quickly france is also moving into this void arent they. Yes they are so b. And p. Part about one of the biggest bedsit breaks in france. China is opening up the scene whats happening with the u. S. So this bank they want to get into brokerage and Wealth Management services in china now this is because of this ongoing trade war china is loosening up a little bit saying hey were going to allow the foreign banks to do more business here and since last november what weve seen is ability for 51 percent ownership in china of these type of services now were seeing that this might even open up more its just a Pilot Project in shanghai but once this happens thats more money for china interesting counter reactions and multipolar world argy correspondent alex middle of its to explain it all thanks so much thank you. Ben facebook finally made their foray into cryptocurrency official on tuesday revealing details of the newest Virtual Currency theyve named libra as with most most crypto as youll be able to buy or sell libor online or at local exchanges users will also be able to spend the currency using 3rd Party Wallets or facebooks new wallets which will be built into whats app Facebook Messenger and of course their flagship app surprisingly the tech giant wont have full control of libor but will hold a single vote in the Labor Association a governing board of the founding members of association which currently includes 28. 00 soon to be founding members from several Different Industries the members each put up 10000000. 00 to join and include the likes of master card visa ebay left vodafone and vodafone among others for those worried about security and facebook having endless access to your data the company will launch a subsidiary called coley that will ensure user privacy by never never collecting connecting libor payments with facebook data so it wont be used to target consumers with ads for more on this were joined by bitsy and c. E. O. Rocky miller rocky thanks for joining us. Thank you rocky some analysts within the crypto space have been quick to say this isnt actually a crypto currency but just a Virtual Currency what do you make of these initial details of libor and does that difference matter. Yes its definitely a Virtual Currency. Based on low volatility assets that are going to be selected by whats called the reserve so in this association it will select the assets that goal and back. The crypto currency and essentially why this matters is its not its not pegged to a single currency so it will be asset backed and hence more of a Virtual Currency the interesting thing here is you know theres a lot of talk about it being a reason for less volatility but yet itll be traded on exchanges and the initial founding members are all being paid in that libra and you know so that really comes to the question of incentives you know if you were i dont know about you but if i was incentivized with something my expectation is that its going up and we see theyre taking big steps its well these privacy concerns that facebook has always they will only have. Concerns about their overweening influence will only have one vote and libor association they have launched a new company to make sure your purchases with libor arent used to sell you advertisement does this increase trust in a new currency increase to trust a new currency put forward by one of the of the wards largest companies. Yeah i dont know if it directly addresses that trust issues you know theres been a lot of instances where you know facebook has worked with 3rd party to purchase data and baelish more of its customer profile so they have known to have done that yes this one vote a separate subsidiary all of that i think helps and i think theyre very aware of their image in the media with this so i think those things help but its yet to be seen how you know how the information is not going to be used and if you think about it its still very centralised its just moving from a centralized government to a centralized group of of large institutions and one of the benefits of libor is like other cryptocurrency. Helping the unbanked other crypto and block Train Companies are out there working to do similar jobs how important is cryptocurrency for the unbanked. Yes cryptocurrency has the ability to really you know explode and help you know folks that do not have traditional banking accounts and Financial Institutions supporting them but you know when it comes to this particular implementation again whats not clear at the white paper is how is one going to to create or are get an autograph in to say libra in order to you know get leverage you still have to have a bank account to go onto one of these exchanges to purchase libor token it does then make it simpler to transact but i think that theres a lot of lofty ideas that are being talked about but the details on exactly how the implementation is going to work is still a lot to be seen yet. And over the last 3 the worlds most popular crypto currency big coin has been on a remarkable run and over the weekend it clips 9000. 00 so many analysts believe it was due to more Institutional Support which is also due to this impending announcement are we going to see continued confidence in bitcoin as to become more knowledgeable about kryptos because of a mainstream name like facebook getting behind it. Yeah i mean if you think about it the last time crypto hit these types of values you know fidelity wasnt a trade was. T. D. Ameritrade was in you know whole foods wasnt accepting bitcoin and wasnt accepting bitcoin and you know facebook wasnt competing with bitcoin so a lot has changed in the crypto sphere in a very short amount of time and this institutional flow and awareness of the markets has certainly grown and continues to grow and so right you know given all of those years how high do you think it can go. Predicting is definitely not something that i would recommend anyone to do or want to do their own research but you know if you if you look at some of the factors that have been contributing to it because it is also going to go into housing in less than a year or so every time in housing its happened prices have surged because the supply is gone down the rewards have gone down and miners need to be incentivized to continue mining so that is definitely a factor money coming in geopolitical issues happening which make bitcoin a great flight for quality start store of value so all these all these factors are contributing and as you said the awareness of bitcoin is growing and that just amplifies all of these all of these things happening around the world and just to put a point on it geo political factors are. Fueling the rise of big points the trade wars. The trade wars issues yes issues with the you know instability in iran and tally and debt you name it you know thats why because it is a global nationalist currency rocky millers.
