☆ 'Just a temporary blip’: Chinese travelers will be back, says Banyan Tree founder
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-14 | by ( Monica Pitrelli | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: 1 min

A dearth of Chinese travelers is nothing to "worry about," said Banyan Tree Holdings founder Ho Kwon Ping. "Most of us in the hospitality industry, a year or so ago, predicted that Chinese tourism would only start to rebound around maybe this year or even next year." For Banyan Tree Holdings — which operates more than 60 hotels in 17 countries — Ho said "Chinese tourism [is] coming back quite strongly." What's missing are the "mass group tours, which provide the numbers, but they don't come to our hotels anyway," he said. "So you have a lot more free individual travelers … and they're the ones who can pay the higher airfares and so on."

Three decades ago, as a University of North Carolina student, he covered a deadly shooting for the school newspaper. Last month, as a journalism professor at the same school, Ryan Thornburg kept his students safe during a lockdown — after another shooting. Thornburg, the former student journalist, didn’t even think to call his parents in California about the 1995 shooting until he saw a television news van near the scene. A few days later, it was their turn to experience a campus shooting. Students who grew up in the age of school shootings are arriving on campus extra jumpy, he said.

The figures show the government has paid out 7.39 billion pounds to lenders to date under the guarantees, while 17 billion pounds has been fully repaid by borrowers. Nearly 31 billion pounds' worth of loans are outstanding from borrowers still making payments on time, the data shows.

It was during Paris’s first pandemic lockdown that the fashion designer Marco Ribeiro felt he’d reached a creative inflection point. “I was like, ‘I can go one of two ways,’” he recalls. “ ‘Either very commercial’ — but nobody was buying anything at the time, and nobody knew how long that would last — ‘or very crazy.’ I chose crazy.”In 2019, the now-35-year-old Brazilian, who’d moved to Paris after 11 years in Buenos Aires, where he sold hand-painted bags and clothing, mostly to friends, had launched his first women’s wear line, a collection of tailored, minimalist pieces. But he never really felt like the work reflected him — where he came from, or what he wanted to convey. In place of his previous monotones are color blocking, bold stripes and a clash of florals and plaids.

☆ CHART OF THE DAY: Chinese growth expectations fall to 'lockdown lows,' fund manager survey says

BofA's survey of fund managers found that a net 0% expect a stronger Chinese economy in the next 12 months. Investors noted that China's real estate sector is the most likely source of any future credit event risk. Describing expectations as back to "lockdown lows," BofA noted that's a whopping plummet from February, when a net 78% of respondents anticipated a stronger economy. But China's economy has slowed sharply in subsequent months, with rapid cooldowns seen in retail sales, industrial output, exports, and investment. In fact, fund managers responding to BofA's survey placed China's real estate as the most likely source of a future systemic credit event.

I sometimes wondered what I had done to deserve my doppelgänger woes. Doppelgängers, which combine the German words for doppel (double) with gänger (goer), are often regarded as warnings, or omens. In an attempt to better understand the warnings carried by my doppelgänger experience, I spent many evenings immersing myself in the rich repertory of doppelgänger films. Until the underground doppelgängers get tired of the arrangement and wreak havoc. Postulating that doppelgängers were tools to express sublimated desires and terrors, it was written in 1914, just as the First World War began.

Top investors are dumping emerging market equities and buying U.S. stocks at a record pace due to concerns about a potential global crisis, according to Bank of America investment strategist Michael Hartnett. The BofA Global Fund Manager Survey showed that September saw a record jump in investor allocation to the U.S., and out of emerging market securities. The shift in asset allocation stemmed from a significant decline in China growth expectations. Bank of America's survey showed none of the respondents now expect a stronger economy in China, versus 78% when polled in February. Bank of America's survey showed investors see China real estate as the No.1 source of the next global credit event.

But there are questions about whether a pandemic that many Americans see as long over will resonate with the electorate in 2024. Now, a recent resurgence of Covid-19 cases is giving Mr. DeSantis a chance to press the argument. Mr. DeSantis and other Republicans have seized on that as evidence that the Covid-19 debate, which they frame as a civil rights battle, is far from over. Mr. DeSantis emphasized that point during his swing through Iowa on Saturday. He has appeared repeatedly this past week on Fox News and other conservative media outlets lauding his pandemic policies, and has done interviews with local news media outlets in Iowa and New Hampshire.

My husband and I are guilty as charged, recognizing ourselves, painfully, in the interviews with former theater company subscribers. Before the pandemic, we subscribed to nearly every theater company in the city. We were such dedicated audience members that we timed our trips to Florida based on the City Center “Encores!” offerings. Even when theater resumed, we remain uncomfortable in large groups and are much more selective about what we choose to see. We kept two subscriptions — at the Public Theater and Lincoln Center, which maintained mask-required performances longer than most.

Asia's ultra-high-net-worth population declined by about 10.9% last year, marking the largest regional drop in the world, a report by data firm Altrata showed. Ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) individuals are those with a net worth of more than $30 million, according to the study. The combined net worth of Asia's super rich population was at $12.13 trillion compared with Europe's $11.73 trillion, the report showed. Europe recorded the second-worst regional performance, with a 7.1% fall to 100,850 high-net worth individuals. Inflationary shocks from Moscow weaponizing energy supplies, which Europe is reliant on, heightened risk aversion and the disruption of supply chains all led to the decline.

For decades, America’s corporate chieftains saw China as a money spinner. Western companies doing business in China are facing pressures that were unimaginable several years ago. The country’s economy is floundering and its relationship with the United States is strained. Many Western companies still see their China operations as a long-term bet, but the payoff is tempered with hazards. “There is a recognition among C.E.O.s that they need to mitigate some risks,” said Myron Brilliant, a senior counselor at Dentons Global Advisors-ASG.

BUEA, Cameroon (Reuters) - Armed militants stopped cars, shot at passengers and set vehicles on fire during an attack on a village in Anglophone Cameroon's South West region on Thursday, residents and a Reuters reporter said. Separatists in minority English-speaking parts of Cameroon have been fighting to carve out an independent state called Ambazonia since 2017. They carry out attacks, kidnappings and killings in the North West and South West regions. Concerned-looking resident gathered around the blackened and bullet-ridden remains of a charred car in the village of Muea, in the South West region, on Thursday as two men pulled out a body wrapped in a blanket. Insurgents began fighting the Cameroonian military in 2017 after civilian protests calling for greater representation for the Francophone country's English-speaking minority were violently repressed.

Dozens of campaigners who built substantial audiences during the COVID era by opposing Australia's pandemic response have turned their focus to undermining the Oct. 14 referendum, analysis of social media posts by independent fact-checkers shows. The direct link between COVID agitators and misinformation about the Voice has not been previously reported in detail. Polls show support for the Voice has slumped from about two-thirds in April to less than 40% this month. Not one X post containing electoral misinformation was marked or taken down in the monitoring period, before or after being reported, Reset.Tech said. "Many of the accounts pushing electoral misinformation narratives turned to a style of anti-lockdown politics during the pandemic," said Reset.Tech Australia executive director Alice Dawkins.
