China's electric vehicle price war represents the calculated culmination of a decade-long state industrial policy that has now reached its inevitable—and perhaps intended—climax. Since 2009, Beijing has channeled over $230 billion into EV incentives, subsidies, and industrial support, creating what appears to be overcapacity but was actually a deliberate strategy to forge global champions through domestic combat. The result is a market hosting over 130 brands competing in what Volkswagen's China chief describes as a sector that has "lost all reason".

HEADLINE: China's EV Market Faces Global Headwinds and Domestic Overcapacity GUEST NAME: Alan Tonelson SUMMARY: Despite innovation, China's electric vehicle market, led by BYD, is experiencing production drops, price wars, and significant international pushback due to quality, surveillance fears, and predatory trade practices, exposing a broader economic deflation. China's EV market leader BYD saw production drops amidst price wars and over 150 producers. Global markets, including the US, Japan, Germany, and South Korea, resist Chinese EVs due to surveillance concerns and predatory trade practices. Beijing maintains employment through municipal loans, but widespread overcapacity and deflation are significant challenges. 1950 PEKING

PREVIEW: HEADLINE: China's Economic Weakness: Deflation, Overcapacity, and Export Barriers GUEST NAME: Alan Tonelson SUMMARY: John Batchelor and Alan Tonelson discuss the crippling deflation gripping China's economy, a result of its plan to promote overcapacity. China has alienated many countries, hindering its ability to move products and no longer enjoys the "American safety valve" for exports. Tonelson explains that this barrier prevents continued Chineseeconomic growth, with no apparent solution. 1952

Rising overcapacity, AI and protectionism may drive a swift transition in chemical production and markets in the next 5-10 years.-          Commodity chemicals may be produced mainly by large state-owned enterprises-          Smaller, privately-owned companies may switch to high value composites, specialties, low-carbon chemicals-          High-cost regions such as Europe could protect their essential commodity chemicals production-          Protective measures need to be taken in next 3-6 months to rescue EU commodity chemicals-          A lot more commodity capacity closures required to keep operating rates healthy-          AI will have a massive impact on chemical companies and markets-          AI will enable us to navigate and analyse increasingly chaotic markets-          AI could drive job losses, disrupt economies-          Climate change will alter seasonal and geographic demand patterns-          Electronics, property, auto markets are depressed-          Q2 chemicals results are very poor in all regionsIn this ICIS Think Tank podcast, Will Beacham interviews John Richardson from the ICIS market development team, ICIS Insight Editor Tom Brown and Paul Hodges, chairman of New Normal Consulting.

We don't talk about overcapacity enough in legal practice, especially not the hidden ways it erodes performance, burns out your team, and stalls your cases. In this episode, I take a closer look at what really happens when you're operating beyond your firm's functional capacity. From unnecessary administrative overhead to frustrated clients and cherry-picked tasks, the ripple effects of overload are costing you more than you think. If your firm is feeling stretched, stuck, or constantly in firefighting mode, this episode will help you understand why.

Schools operating over their campus capacity are getting creative to cater for roll growth. New data shows 17% of state schools had more students enrolled than their official classroom capacity last year. Another 71% are operating at capacity. Secondary Principals' Association president Vaughan Couillault told Mike Hosking packed schools typically put in more prefabs in the first instance. He says they may also start to make classes bigger or use libraries and meeting rooms as classrooms. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Chinese leaders believe overcapacity across industries including automotive is a cyclical problem that fresh growth will solve. Foreign investors with experience in the PRC see things differently. To them, overcapacity is a direct result of China's planned economy. Not only does massive overcapacity spark price wars inside China, it also threatens to spur an avalanche of exports into markets worldwide, undermining industries and killing jobs. Joerg Wuttke led the China operations of BASF, the German chemical giant for 27 years. Mr Wuttke  knows China like few people on the planet. In the summer of 2024, he became a partner at the Albright Stonebridge Group based in Washington DC. Mr Wuttke is considered one of the world's leading experts on Europe-China trade and investments. Today, we talk about what Mr Wuttke calls China's "breaking point" when it comes to overcapacity. How soon will it arrive? What will it look like?

Whether it is solar panels or steel, clothes or tech, many of the world's manufactures are made in China. But did you know that the Chinese manufacturing sector is not really supply and demand driven and tends to produce far more than the rest of the world demands? Now… with a faltering post-COVID recovery, a housing market collapse, and worsening relationship with the West, is China's economy in a genuine state of crisis? And could a troubled Chinese economy, unable to be buoyed by the recently announced stimulus, spread more Disorder globally? And what should the US and UK do to contain China's disordering potential? And how are different approaches to the Chinese economy a key electoral issue in the upcoming US Presidential election?    Jason Pack is joined by Zongyuan ‘Zoe' Liu, the Maurice R. Greenberg Fellow for China Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, and author of Sovereign Funds: How the Communist Party of China Finances Its Global Ambitions. Jason and Zoe discuss how China's economic policies – characterized by a motley mix of market-driven and state-controlled elements – have led to both tremendous Chinese excellence in manufacturing and also oversupply. The duo also discuss: the changing US-China relationship, the implications of Chinese overproduction on the global economy, and the role of massive Chinese provincial government debt.    As they Order the Disorder, they suggest how existing institutions like the World Trade Organization could work better, and how to patch up the failing marriage between China and the West.    Producer: George McDonagh  Exec Producer: Neil Fearn    Subscribe to our Substack: https://natoandtheged.substack.com/      Show Notes Links  Read Zoe's article ‘China's Real Economic Crisis: Why Beijing Won't Give Up on a Failing Model' https://www.foreignaffairs.com/china/chinas-real-economic-crisis-zongyuan-liu  Read more on why ‘China's economic ills are serious but not incurable'https://www.ft.com/content/553b106c-2bba-4f90-86d6-8496fc9cf902  On the Chinese hacking of Trump and Vance's phone's: https://edition.cnn.com/2024/10/25/politics/chinese-hackers-targeted-trump-and-vances-phone-data/index.html   For more on China's government is about to spend big on stimulus – can it turn around the country's sluggish economy? https://theconversation.com/chinas-government-is-about-to-spend-big-on-stimulus-can-it-turn-around-the-countrys-sluggish-economy-241260  To get more on Zongyuan Zoe Liu https://www.cfr.org/expert/zongyuan-zoe-liu  Watch US Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns explain The China Challenge https://foreignpolicy.com/live/burns-china-us-competition-diplomacy/  Read George Manus' piece ‘China's plan to boost flagging growth is the very definition of economic insanity‘ https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/oct/13/chinas-plan-to-boost-flagging-growth-is-the-very-definition-of-economic-insanity  Learn more about your ad choices.

In the past few months, the issue of surplus supply or 'overcapacity' in the Chinese production ecosystem has led to a ringing of alarm bells in the economies of the geopolitical West. Using both a national security and economic logic to approach the issue, Western countries have slapped import tariffs of upto a 100% on Chinese exports to prevent dumping. The supply glut is also causing low profitability for Chinese firms, amidst an already slowing economy. In this special video episode of Takshashila's 'All Things Policy' podcast, Pranay Kotasthane and Anushka Saxena weigh in on the debate surrounding Chinese overcapacity. They also discuss policy approaches India can adopt to address potential fallouts of such overcapacity. Tune in now!

PREVIEW: PRC: CANADA: USA: TARIFFS: Conversation with colleague Alan Tonelson re what is to be done about PRC dumping of overcapacity and subsidized products such as steel, aluminum and EVs on the US through subterfuge and other schemes. More later. 1949

The steel industry is facing too much supply and tumbling prices. Much of the problem is coming from China, where Chinese Communist Party (CCP) policies have led to overcapacity. Faced with this issue, the United States placed tariffs on Chinese goods, including steel and aluminum, which the CCP has in turn tried getting around by using Mexico as a waypoint to the U.S. market. This loophole is now being closed as well. We'll discuss in this episode of Crossroads.

South Africa this week joined a growing list of developing countries around the world to introduce tariffs on certain Chinese imports in a bid to protect local producers. Indonesia, Mexico, Chile, and Brazil, among others, also introduced similar duties on Chinese steel and other products. While low-cost Chinese goods are a boon for Global South consumers, they're extremely problematic for manufacturers in these countries because it's almost impossible to match the "China Price." Chinese factories can produce goods at a scale and cost that remains unrivaled, and now, according to a new report by the consultancy Rhodium Group, they're flooding markets in Africa and other developing regions. Camille Boullenois, a director of Rhodium Group's China projects team, and Austin Jordan, a senior analyst a Rhodium Group, join Eric & Cobus to discuss their new report and why this trend is potentially debilitating for many of the world's least developed countries.

China's automobile industry set a new record in the year 2023, with both production and sales exceeding 30 million units for the first time. But as China's new energy vehicles, solar photovoltaic panels, and lithium batteries enjoy booming sales worldwide, some Western media outlets claim that Chinese EV manufacturers' rapid development was driven by subsidies. Is China's so-called overcapacity really flooding global markets? Or should we put a quotation mark on the word overcapacity?

This podcast begins by dissecting the Reuters article about the Tesla Model 2 being cancelled as a passenger vehicle.The conversation moves over to Tesla sales in China, predictions about total sales for 2024 and what Tesla could do to boost sales in 2024. They pivot over to a quick discussion about Porsche's struggles in China and what it'll take to turn its sales around in the China market. They also spend a few minutes discussing Xiaomi's continued sales and XPeng's struggles. Tu then talks briefly about Janet Yellen's visit to China and her emphasis on overcapacity in China. Tu then specifies that the overcapacity is much more prevalent on the ICE side, not so much the EV side but that there would nonetheless be pressure to export due to the price war and the inability for many Chinese EV brands to gain any sustained sales traction. The episode closes out with what Lei and Tu are looking forward to when they both travel to China for Auto Beijing 2024. 

The European Union and the United States claim that China is flooding global markets with cheap goods. China says these assertions are groundless. Post Europe correspondent Finbarr Bermingham breaks down the arguments for and against overcapacity, and looks at whether the EU and China are heading towards a trade war.

Paul Hodges of New Normal Consulting and publisher of The pH Report returns to Forward Guidance to update viewers on the state of the chemicals and automotive industry. Hodges sees significant overcapacity in chemicals and persistently low price of ethene, propylene, and other chemicals suggests that demand is weakening. Jack asks about whether the fall in inflation in the U.S. economy, which occurred while the labor market and spending stayed strong, indicates that a “soft landing” is a likely outcome in the U.S. or might have even already occurred.

This can be a tough subject when your kids feel afraid and even harder when you, as a parent, have fears around death, too.

Lundgren Center for Retail at the University of Arizona where he hosts an annual conference for retail industry leaders and students interested in a career in retail and related industries.Lundgren currently serves on the boards of The Procter & Gamble Company, New DataNetwork, and the Economic Club of New York.

Later, he played a key role in the acquisition and transformation of Federated Department Stores into Macy's Inc.Mentorship and Influential Figures: Alan Questrom, a prominent figure in the retail industry, was a significant mentor for Terry Lundgren. Questrom's guidance and influence played a crucial role in Lundgren's career decisions, including taking a lower-paying job at Bullocks, which eventually led to his successful career.Strategic Acquisitions at Macy's: Lundgren orchestrated major acquisitions at Macy's, including the purchase of Marshall Field and the acquisition of May Company. These strategic moves were aimed at expanding Macy's into a national brand and increasing its market presence.E-commerce Initiatives and Early Adoption: Lundgren recognized the potential of e-commerce early on and supported the development of online platforms at Macy's, leveraging the expertise of teams in Silicon Valley. Despite challenges, including the dot-com bust in 2000, Macy's continued to invest in e-commerce, establishing a significant lead over competitors.Challenges Facing the Retail Industry Today: Lundgren identifies three major challenges for retailers:Overcapacity of Physical Retail Space: There is an excess of physical retail space, and the industry needs to adapt by reducing store numbers.Potential Consumer Spending Slowdown: With a potential decline in consumer spending, especially among middle and lower-income households, retailers may face economic headwinds.Department Store Positioning: Department stores need to differentiate themselves to stay relevant. Lundgren advises a focus on offering unique products and enhancing the shopping experience to give consumers a reason to choose Macy's over other options.Department Stores' Future: Terry Lundgren believes that department stores will continue to exist in the future.
