本次播客摘自The economist 2, China’s consumer-price index fell by 0.3% in July, year on year. The index of factory-gate prices slumped by 4.4%. China had been teetering on the brink of deflation for months, as the rebound from lockdowns fizzled out. The value of Chinese exports declined by 14.5% in July at an annual rate, the biggest drop since the start of the pandemic. 3, The competition between America and Europe to attract investment in chipmaking heated up when TSMC, a big Taiwanese semiconductor company, said it would build a factory in Germany, TSMC is spending €3.5bn ($3.8bn) on the project; the German government is stumping up another €5bn. The EU recently approved the Chips Act, a package of subsidies that aims to double the EU’S global share in chipmaking from 10% to "at least” 20% by 2030. 4, SoftBank’s Vision Fund made its first investment gain in over a year during the latest quarter, though the Japanese tech conglomerate /kənˈɡlɑːmərət/ racked up another heavy net loss. SoftBank said it begin to invest again, especially in AI, but would do so "timidly /ˈtɪmɪdlɪ/, with fear in our hearts”. Meanwhile a slew of tech giants, including Amazon, Apple, Nvidia and Samsung, were reported to be lining up to take stakes in Arm, a chip designer, when SoftBank floats the firm on the stockmarket in September. 5, WeWork, one of SoftBank’s worst bets in recent years, warned of a "substantial doubt” about its "ability to continue as a going concern". The provider of shared working spaces said that a surplus of commercial property and economic uncertainty had contributed to its problems. Its stock slumped. WeWork was once valued at $47bn. It is now worth around $275m. 6, Disney reported another drop in subscribers for its streaming services, but the business's loss in the latest quarter narrowed to $512m from over $1bn a year ago. The company announced more big price rises, lifting the cost of subscribing to the ad-free version of Disney+ by 27%. 7, Zoom has told employees to return to the office at least two days a week. In May the company's boss, Eric Yuan, said it was hard to force workers back and that letting “employees work anywhere has sort of become a fashion”. Zoom’s technology enabled the shift to remote working during the pandemic more than anything else. Lauded as a permanent change to working patterns, there is now a move by corporations to curtail the practice. Even America’s federal government is clamping down on working from home.

本篇新闻来自 Economist Expresso China's deflationary 中国的通货紧缩 In recent years, policy makers in most of the world's big economies have faced a Stagflationary dilemma dɪˈlemə. They have wrestled both with high inflation, which demands steep interest rates, and fears of a recession, which would normally call for monetary easing。 近年来，世界上大多数大型经济体的政策制定者都面临着滞胀困境。 他们既要应对高通胀（高通胀需要高利率），又要应对经济衰退（通常需要宽松的货币政策）。 The exception is China. It is struggling with both slowing growth and dangerously low inflation. Exports, a once vital contributor kənˈtrɪbjətər to growth, shrank by over 14% year-on-year in July. And figures released on Wednesday are likely to show that consumer-price inflation turned negative last month。 中国是个例外。 它正在与增长放缓和危险的低通胀作斗争。 曾经对经济增长至关重要的出口7月份同比萎缩了14%以上。 周三公布的数据可能显示上个月消费者价格通胀转为负值。 In response, China's central bank has cut interest rates by only o.1 percentage points. Its timidity tɪˈmɪdəti is puzzling. China's deflationary predicament n.窘况，困境；状态 should not pose a policy dilemma. 作为回应，中国央行仅降息0.1个百分点。 它的胆怯令人费解。 中国的通货紧缩困境不应造成政策困境。 The textbook response to weak growth and inflation is monetary easing. That is what some scolds call the “easy way out”。 But he economist James Galbraith once said, “I definitely favour the easy way out when it is available.” 对增长疲弱和通胀的教科书式反应是货币宽松。 这就是一些人斥责的“简单出路”。但正如经济学家詹姆斯·加尔布雷斯曾经说过的那样，“如果有简单的出路，我绝对赞成这种方法。
