Episode 100: How China's Producer Inflation Is Reshaping the Trade Deficit

In this milestone 100th episode, Lucas and Luna examine how China's producer inflation hitting a near-4-year high is changing the US trade deficit. With imports from China still growing and the dollar-yen at 162, the episode explores why higher Chinese factory prices aren't reducing the deficit—and what the labor force drop of 57,000 jobs in June means for trade flows. Along the way, they unpack the paradox of Europe still buying Chinese air conditioners despite tariffs, and how the current account balance widening to -$226.8 billion signals deeper structural shifts. #TradeDeficit #ChinaProducerInflation #DollarYen162 #ECBExit #LaborForceDrop #USImports #ChineseAirConditioners #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EconomicsPodcast #TradeBalance #CurrentAccount #ProducerPriceIndex #ChristineLagarde #JuneJobsReport #EurozoneTrade #GlobalSupplyChains #Episode100 Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
