US-China trade war clouds global economic outlook as 'new normal' emerges

by Inkhabar webdesk
written by Inkhabar webdesk

By David Lawder, David Milliken and Andrea Shalal WASHINGTON (Reuters) -International finance chiefs are returning home with a measure of relief over the surprising resilience of the global economy to the cascade of policy shocks through the first nine months of Donald Trump's second U.S. presidency but also drained by seemingly never-ending uncertainty over what lies ahead. When finance ministers and central bankers gathered in Washington in April for the first of the twice-yearly meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank, the anxiety over Trump's just-unveiled "Liberation Day" tariffs was palpable. Six months on at the just-concluded October meetings, that had been replaced by fatigue and wariness that the policy landscape is never fully settled. "It's been just absolutely exhausting since Liberation Day as a policymaker, trying to make sense and then actually make policy and communicate to the public about this," Bank of Thailand Deputy Governor Piti Disyatat said. "So the uncertainty has been very difficult." "The global economy appears to be more resilient than we thought several months ago. But there's no room for complacency given various types of uncertainty," said a Japanese delegation official who participated in talks in Washington. "There was a great degree of discussion over uncertainties."  A week of fractious back-and-forth between the U.S. and China drove the point home as Trump responded to new export controls on rare earth minerals from Beijing with the re-imposition of 100% tariffs on Chinese exports to the U.S. The re-escalation of tensions between the world's two largest economies sharpened the focus among the hundreds of policymakers taking part in the meetings, amid growing momentum for new trade arrangements outside the U.S.-China orbit. IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said she had rarely seen as much constructive engagement at the semi-annual meetings of finance officials and central bankers.  "It may be because uncertainty is so high that there is no space for theatricals," Georgieva told a banking conference on Saturday. "It may be because now many countries realize that what they took for granted – international cooperation that helps us do better – we should not take for granted."  STRENGTHENING REGIONAL, BILATERAL TIES Georgieva and World Trade Organization chief Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala told participants it was promising that U.S.-China tensions – however intense – had not blown up into a wider trade war, and noted that many countries were in fact seeking to deepen bilateral and regional ties. New Zealand Finance Minister Nicola Willis told Reuters she expected that trend to gain momentum against the backdrop of increasing geopolitical and economic uncertainty. She said it was notable that the European Union was now looking to link up with the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, a free trade deal between 11 member countries. "All of those trade relationships are very strong, and the messages that we're having from our partners is that they wish to continue to build on them and expand them, rather than go the other way," she told Reuters in an interview. Rania Al-Mashat, Egypt's minister of planning, economic development and international cooperation, told Saturday's event that increased regional cooperation was a "fallout" of global developments, but would remain important going forward. REFORMS NEEDED EVERYWHERE The situation also focused attention on strains in the global economy, including persistent and "excessive" external balances, near-record debt levels, growing worries about the non-bank sector and disruption from artificial intelligence technologies. Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey said frank discussion was needed, given the international community's past failure to identify – and halt – the subprime mortgage developments that triggered the global financial crisis of 2007-2009. Transparency was critical in an opaque world with tight cross-links between banking, insurance and private finance. "It’s our duty to lift the lid and see what’s going on," Bailey said at an event hosted by the Group of Thirty on Saturday. “We’ve obviously had a few events that are going on at the moment where we are having to ask the question, are these one-offs or is it the canary in the coal mine?" Georgieva underscored her concern about "stretched valuations," following the IMF's warning on Tuesday that markets are too comfortable with risks, including trade wars, geopolitical tensions and yawning government deficits, which heightened the risk of a "disorderly" market correction. The IMF chief said she ended the week with a long list of to-do's, including reviews of how the IMF conducts its surveillance of countries' economies and assesses their debt levels, while Okonjo-Iweala underscored the urgency for WTO reforms. "We need to diversify trade," WTO's Okonjo-Iweala said, noting that global trade had clearly helped many countries, even if results had been uneven, leaving other countries behind.  "We need to fix parts of it that don't work," she said. "We need to re-imagine globalization. We cannot have what we had in the past," she said.  CLIMATE RISKS MOUNTING Climate change posed perhaps the biggest risk, officials agreed, despite Trump's recent comments at the United Nations, calling it a "con job." The issue bubbled up during a meeting of the IMF steering committee on Friday, where South African central bank governor Lesetja Kganyago told officials that climate risk was indisputably a macro-critical issue with huge implications for insurance, economic fundamentals and financial stability. "In trade negotiations, you can walk away … and you can find another trading partner," Kganyago told the G30 conference. "With climate, when you walk away from the negotiations, the whole planet gets warm and we will all suffer."

Chinese tech giants pause stablecoin plans after Beijing steps in, FT reports

by Inkhabar webdesk
written by Inkhabar webdesk

(Reuters) -Chinese tech giants, including Alibaba-backed Ant Group and e-commerce group JD.com, have paused plans to issue stablecoins in Hong Kong after the government raised concerns about the rise of currencies controlled by the private sector, the Financial Times reported on Saturday. Companies have put their stablecoin ambitions on hold after receiving instructions from Chinese regulators, including the People’s Bank of China and Cyberspace Administration of China, not to move ahead with the plans, the FT reported, citing people familiar with the matter. Hong Kong's legislature passed a stablecoin bill in May that established a licensing regime for fiat-referenced stablecoin issuers in Hong Kong, providing regulatory clarity for future participants. Under the new regime, any person who issues stablecoins in Hong Kong – or issues stablecoins backed by Hong Kong dollars, whether within or outside the city – must obtain a licence from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. Ant Group said in June it would be participating in the pilot stablecoin programme. JD.com has also said it would take part in the pilot, according to the FT. PBOC officials advised against participating in the initial rollout of stablecoins over concerns about allowing tech groups and brokerages to issue any type of currency, the FT report said. Reuters could not immediately verify the report. Ant Group, JD.com, PBOC and CAC did not respond to requests for comment. A spokesperson for the HKMA told Reuters on Sunday in an email that it does not comment on market rumours. Stablecoins, a type of cryptocurrency designed to maintain a constant value, usually pegged to a fiat currency such as the U.S. dollar, are commonly used by crypto traders to move funds between tokens.

Trackhouse's Fernandez storms to maiden MotoGP victory at Australian GP

VIDEO SHOWS: HIGHLIGHTS FROM AUSTRALIAN MOTOGP RACING / SOUNDBITE OF MOTOGP WINNER RAUL FERNANDEZ/ MOTO2 RACE HIGHLIGHTS/ MOTO3 RACE HIGHLIGHTS COMPLETE SHOTLIST TO FOLLOW  SHOWS: PHILLIP ISLAND, AUSTRALIA (OCTOBER 19, 2025) (DORNA – See restrictions) STORY: Raul Fernandez delivered a dominant performance to claim his maiden MotoGP victory at the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday (October 19), securing a first-ever triumph for Trackhouse Racing in the premier class. Sprint-winner Marco Bezzecchi, who began second on the grid, made an electric start to snatch the lead from pole-sitter Fabio Quartararo before the first corner. The Italian's rapid getaway also allowed Fernandez and Pedro Acosta to overtake Quartararo, who had set a record-breaking lap in Saturday's qualifying. However, Bezzecchi charge was short-lived, as he had to serve a double long lap penalty for his collision with newly-crowned MotoGP champion Marc Marquez at the Indonesian Grand Prix. The Aprilia rider served his penalty and fought his way back to an impressive third-place finish. Fernandez capitalised on Bezzecchi's setback to take the lead, and once he found himself with clear track ahead, the 24-year-old Spaniard was untouchable. Fernandez's triumph marked a milestone for Aprilia, as they became the most successful European manufacturer in the history of Grand Prix racing with a 300th victory. Acosta, Alex Marquez and Fabio Di Giannantonio traded places in a fierce contest before VR46 Racing's Di Giannantonio managed to clinch second place, with Bezzecchi completing the podium after his remarkable recovery. In Moto2 category, Australian rider Senna Agius thrilled his home crowd with a decisive victory, leading every lap to secure his second career win. Agius, starting from second on the grid, surged into the lead at Turn 1 and maintained a dominant pace throughout the race, finishing three seconds ahead at the chequered flag.  Diogo Moreira took second position after a strong start, staying ahead of title contender Manuel Gonzalez throughout the opening lap, adding pressure to the championship battle. In Moto3 category, Jose Antonio Rueda showcased his supremacy, securing his 10th victory of the season with a commanding performance.  The newly crowned Moto3 champion, starting second on the grid, moved into the lead on lap seven and held off local favourite Joel Kelso in a decisive final-lap showdown to clinch the win. Polesitter Kelso initially regained the lead at Turn 3 after losing it at the start but was ultimately unable to match Rueda's pace, finishing second in front of the home crowd.
