weren't surprised to see pessimism had gone down a little. pessimism has gone down a little bit and it's been incredibly difficult time to do business and i think one thing they did surprise us, 60% of businesses said that it was more difficult doing business now in october or november we conducted the survey than a year ago and i particularly as to the service sectors. is that because the worsening economic conditions are the challenges? the chinese economy is having an enormous impact and geopolitics in a relationship with the uk in the us, increasing nationalism in the global economy in the sector of the uk economy but is less market entry, there's less mna, there's less overall business activity to provide the revenue for the services. are there any sectors actually doing better in china? relatively, retail is during been better than they were last year because there was lockdowns and it was very hard for them to conduct business and real bright spots in the energy and health care and editing that mirrors a lot of the findings which you a line with government initiatives and government demand here, there can be positivity for business in china because what about healthcare protecting young and/or people and they're looking for energy sufficiency. hasbro says it will cut another 900 jobs globally. the announcement comes about a year after the maker of monopoly announced it would reduce 15% of its workforce amid weaker sales. consumers worldwide have struggled to cope with consistently high inflation, forcing them to cut back on discretionary spending. it isa it is a boom time for india's luxury market from premium cars to designer handbags and watches, they are all flying off the shelves. but this boom also coincides with flattening consumption across the broader market, as well as worries of growing inequality in asia's third—biggest economy. from mumbai, nikhil inamdar has more. india's richest man launching the country's largest luxury shopping centre. the opening featuring the red carpet studded with bollywood's big stars. the shops in salons of global brands occupy prime real estate here. luxury fashion houses like balenciaga have made the indian debut. it is not difficult to understand why these ultra premium shopping malls are springing up the country. —— across the country. india is minting new millionaires. it is notjust in retail where the growing appetite for luxury is visible. sales of ultra—luxury homes and jumped fourfold this year. high—end smartphones are flying off the shelves. and luxury carmakers are having their best year ever. this doctor fulfilled a lifelong dream last month when he splashed out on this $100,000 mercedes. translation: it's a big day for me, i came from a humble background. people look at you differently when you have a mercedes. this is the new aspirational india that's powering luxury car sales as they go at twice the pace of the broader market. the younger buyers are also more open to showing off their success, their wealth. there is clearly an aspirational boom in india right now. but the luxury boom comes as consumer spending in india as a whole remains weak. while the rich are buying more than ever, the poor are cutting back. 60, 70, 80% of people are still at the fringes if i may use the word of their existence and most of the growth in india as far as consumption is concerned is largely led by 15, 20%. that's not a small number, it's still a0 to 50 million people. a huge number of potential customers will take the luxury goods market to $100 billion at the next few years. and it couldn't come at a better time. china, which has been the biggest driver of growth for the luxury market, has been losing steam. that is it for the programme. we will be back tomorrow so join us if you can. thank you so much for watching. voice-over: bringing you different stories i from across the uk. breaking the law, these e—scooters were filmed on the streets of lincoln in the last few days. the only place they can legally be ridden is on private land with the permission of the landowner. but they've become a common sight in our towns and cities. they scoot past you. you don't even know they are coming around! a wide range of scooters on sale in big—name high street shops alongside warnings from police, and their message is think twice before you buy one as a present. the only place you can legally use them is on private land with the land owner's permission, and for most people, they're not going to have that option. from the point of view- of saving fuel and allowing people to travel, i think it is a good idea. -
