Boeing Becomes a Trade War Casualty; Harvard Rejects Trump's Terms

  • Summary

  • On today's podcast:
    1) China orders a halt to Boeing jet deliveries in another salvo of the US-China trade war. China ordered its airlines to stop taking deliveries of Boeing jets and to halt purchases of aircraft-related equipment and parts from US companies. The standoff is a setback for Boeing, which relies heavily on the Chinese market, and could impact the company's sales and supply chains.
    2) US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent downplays the recent bond market selloff in an exclusive discussion with Bloomberg. He says the Treasury has a lot of tools it could use should it need to step in, but says there's no signs it needs to right now.
    3) Harvard fights back against President Trump's $9 billion funding fight. University President Alan Garber rejected the Trump administration's demands to combat antisemitism, citing threats to academic freedom and interference in higher education. In response, a government task force plans to freeze $2.2 billion of multiyear grants to Harvard, which could impact the university's research, medicine, and public health programs.
