Former President Donald Trump said in an economic address Thursday that the U.S. has allowed "big companies" to "come in and raid and rape our country." I used the word 'rape,'" Trump said at the Detroit Economic Club after his remarks were met with what sounded like some gasps from the audience. "So here’s the deal that I will be offering to the world, to companies outside of our world, big companies, powerful companies, that have become powerful because we were stupid, we were stupid. Trump added that his administration would impose a “tax or tariff” on companies that do not manufacture their goods in the U.S. Trump used similarly loaded language during his 2016 presidential campaign when he singled out China.

☆ CNBC's Inside India newsletter: Is China's stock market rally behind Indian equity losses?
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-10 | by ( Ganesh Rao | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

China's CSI 300 index has gained about 25% since the stimulus measures were announced. That would depend on whether the measures announced will likely target China's stock market or the real economy. Even if China's economy improves and its stock market soars, experts suggest it's unlikely to hurt the Indian equity market's growth outlook over the long term. For now, a strong and rapidly growing economy, as well as a "resilient" domestic investor base, continue to be significant drivers of Indian stock markets, according to Wall Street's observers. "The Indian market has numerous positive domestic drivers which underpin our overweight recommendation," Morgan Stanley's Jonathan Garner said in a note to clients this week.

Hurricane Milton's impact on Florida won't cause major losses for catastrophe bond investors, portfolio managers say. Insurance companies still face significant losses, but cat bond investors aren't eyeing the worst-case scenario. AdvertisementThe impact of Hurricane Milton on Florida is unlikely to trigger massive losses for catastrophe bond investors. The losses for cat bond investors, therefore, might only be in the low-single digits. This will drive an increase in risk premiums, leading to higher return expectations for cat bond investors moving forward," Steiger said.

A big jump in retail spending would be the next data point indicating a "no landing" of the economy. A no-landing scenario occurs when strong economic growth fuels inflation and hinders rate cuts. Bank of America analysts expect September retail sales data, set for release on October 17, to show a 0.8% surge. "Monthly retail sales data can be volatile. If retail sales accelerate considerably, in our view, the narrative may shift further toward 'no landing' or even re-acceleration," they said.
