    The View Beyond: China’s old and new tech divide

    Against a shifting macro backdrop, markets are responding to easing geopolitical tensions following a US-Iran peace deal, with oil prices falling sharply and Asian equities rallying. Within China, however, a stark divergence persists: Hong Kong’s “old tech” sector has lagged, while mainland “new tech,” particularly AI infrastructure, continues to attract strong inflows and outperform.   In this episode, Richard Tang speaks with Hong Hao, Managing Partner and CIO of Lotus Asset Management, about China’s uneven market outlook. They discuss the prospects for a rebound in Hong Kong internet stocks, the sustainability of the AI rally and signs of froth, alongside liquidity risks from IPO activity and the outlook for gold amid shifting oil and interest rate dynamics.   This episode was originally recorded on 16 June 2026. (00:30) - The old and new tech divide in China (01:45) - Will Hong Kong internet stocks see a rebound? (03:25) - Why is there a lack of stimulus this time? (07:05) - A “K-shaped” economy (07:40) - A strong run in A-share tech — is the AI rally getting frothy? (15:48) - The liquidity impact of the IPO glut (20:27) - Where might gold be headed?

    A week dominated by geopolitics and central banks

    Global markets have been driven this week by a US–Iran deal, a more hawkish Fed under Kevin Warsh, and a Bank of Japan rate hike to multi-decade highs. Markets are now pricing in further US policy tightening, with record Treasury futures volumes signalling strong expectations for rate rises. Equities were mixed yesterday, with early weakness offset by gains in semiconductor stocks. Central banks remain in focus, as the Bank of England held rates and the Swiss National Bank maintained ultra-loose policy amid low inflation. Oil fell below USD 80 on improved supply. Tim Gagie, Head of FX Advisory Geneva, highlights USD strength and gold weakness as the Fed sharpens its inflation focus. He also discusses the prospects for the major low-yielding currencies, the CHF and JPY.

    Hawkish Fed, calmer world? Markets reprice as geopolitics shift

    European equities extended their upward momentum, while US markets faced selling pressure after the first FOMC meeting under Chair Kevin Warsh delivered a surprisingly hawkish tone, pushing Treasury yields higher. Yet, sentiment later shifted again as news of a signed memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran lifted Asian markets and drove US equity futures firmly into positive territory. In today’s episode, Norbert Rücker, Head of Economics and Next Generation Research, explores how easing geopolitical tensions could reshape the outlook for global energy markets.

    Markets rally on Iran progress as AI price war heats up

    Markets rallied strongly yesterday as easing geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran lifted risk sentiment, with European equities reaching fresh record highs and US indices surging across the board. Optimism was driven by a framework agreement pointing towards a gradual reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, although uncertainty remains around the timeline and terms. Oil prices fell sharply, while gold moved higher amid softer rate expectations and a weaker dollar. Overnight, central banks remained in focus, with the Bank of Japan delivering its first rate hike since 1995, while weak macro data out of China reinforced concerns about slowing domestic demand. Today, we were joined by Enrico Chinello from Next Generation Research, who unpacked the intensifying price war among leading AI model providers.

    Markets surge as Iran and US agree to a deal

    Yesterday, the US and Iran agreed to the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon. The deal is set to be signed on Friday and still allows for a 60-day window to negotiate issues around Iran’s nuclear program. Evidently some details are still to be ironed out, but equity and bond markets have reacted positively, with Asia trading higher this morning and futures pointing to a higher opening globally today. Added to this, the price of oil has already dropped more than 4% and gold has climbed 3%. Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis, provides his thoughts on where these assets might trade from here, as well as sharing his view on semiconductor stocks.  (00:00) - Introduction: Jan Bopp, Product & Investment Content (01:09) - Markets wrap-up: Bernadette Anderko, Product & Investment Content (07:18) - Technical Analysis update: Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis (09:22) - Closing remarks: Jan Bopp, Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?
