    Shein's Hong Kong IPO; Investors Bet on Hair Loss Treatments

    The Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City’s annual economic symposium in Jackson Hole, Wyoming featured Kevin Warsh’s first speech as chairman. Warsh used his keynote speech to hammer home a message that curbing inflation is the central bank’s top priority. While parts of the speech served to double down on his stated determination to avoid offering guidance to financial markets on the direction of interest rates, Warsh did finally provide some insight into how he views the economy. That helped relieve some frustration among investors and added drama to the Fed’s next policy meeting. Also this weekend, President Donald Trump announced he was moving to rename Lake Ontario as Lake America, escalating his clash with Canada after trade negotiations between the two nations collapsed. Trump said the move would take place “effective immediately” and the Interior Department had 30 days to change the name in federal databases and materials. On today's show, Bloomberg This Weekend hosts Christina Ruffini and Bailey Lipschultz speak with: - Former Trump Senior Economic adviser Stephen Moore, who says inflation remains too high for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. - Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Illinois), on his criticism of the administration’s trade fight with Canada. - Bloomberg News Consumer Finance Reporter Lisa Du, on clothing company Shein heading toward a Hong Kong listing at a valuation of about $26.5 billion, roughly a quarter of its 2022 peak. - Bloomberg News Biotech & Healthcare Reporter Avalon Pernell, on the drugmakers developing a new generation of hair loss treatments, including lotions, pills and longer-lasting injections, targeting a market of tens of millions of Americans. Plus, Christina, Bailey, and Lisa Mateo play Pointed: The News Quiz for Risk Takers.

    MI6 Veteran Warns Against Politicizing Intelligence; World Robot Conference

    President Donald Trump is betting new sanctions and economic pressure can force Tehran to accept a deal to end the war on US terms. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps may be impervious to such pressure and has plenty of ways to retaliate, including military strikes across the Gulf. The US economic pressure campaign is having an impact, risking one of Iran's worst ever economic crises, but it's unclear if it will lead to Iran's capitulation or further retaliation. Also this weekend, China’s humanoid robot makers now control 97% of global shipments, giving Beijing an early lead over US rivals. At the World Robot Conference in Beijing, robots sort boxes, handle laundry and bag clothes. On today's show, Bloomberg This Weekend hosts Christina Ruffini and David Gura speak with: - Former Head of MI6 Sir Richard Dearlove, on his concerns about politicization and personnel changes inside the CIA. - Bloomberg News Reporter Allen Wan at the World Robot Conference in Beijing, where Unitree declared that humanoid robots could take off commercially in just two years. - Kim Ghattas, Distinguished Fellow at Columbia University’s Institute of Global Politics, on how sanctions are targeting Iran's weakened regional network. - Nathan Grawe, Professor of Economics at Carleton College, on how US colleges are facing a shrinking student population.

Also this weekend, pet owners are spending money on experimental treatments they believe will help their pets live better and longer lives, including peptide injections, red-light therapy, and nutritional supplements.
