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.

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?

Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing explains what the latest signals from the Bank of England and that Q1 UK GDP report mean in the latest episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics. He also previews the coming week's US inflation data, tells David Wilder why EM monetary easing will need to slow and puts the US current account deficit in context. Also on the show, Chief Asia Economist Mark Williams talks to Leah Fahy from our China team about what his analysis of Chinese auto production and exports says about what's been missing from the growing global row about Chinese industrial overcapacity.And, in an exclusive clip from our recent client briefing about global inflation, the team talk services inflation and signs of labour market softening on both sides of the Atlantic.
Some US and Western politicians and media outlets have recently claimed "overcapacity" in China's industrial sector. They have focused on the growth of Chinese manufacturing in new green industries like electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries, and solar panels. In 2023, China became the world's largest auto exporter, with a significant increase in sales of new energy vehicles. What's behind China's NEV success? Why does the "overcapacity" narrative conflict with the global demand for new energy vehicles and basic economic principles?

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.

Janet Yellen lent official voice to resurgent global worries about the threat of Chinese overcapacity when she pointedly criticised Beijing's overinvestment and underpowered consumption during her trip there earlier this month. But are the US Treasury Secretary's criticisms justified? Will China's leaders push through the necessary reforms to bring down the savings rate? And how will western governments respond if they don't? In the latest episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics, Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing talks to Mark Williams, our Chief Asia Economist, all about the politics and economics around the perception that China's factories are once again flooding global goods markets.
AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports on detailed talks between the U.S. and China.

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.

Why is steel so important? What is steel “overcapacity” and why does it matter? Which country produces more steel than the rest of the world combined? What is trade “Whac-A-Mole”? In this episode, we unravel the intricacies of the steel industry with our guest, Ben Caryl, Associate General Counsel of International Trade & Public Policy at U. S Steel. Ben discusses steel's long, long history and delves into why foreign government support for steel production and exports has fueled massive global steel overcapacity and imports into the United States that impact American steel mills, workers, and national security.
Ken Pilot interviews Terry Lundgren for this flight of The Retail Pilot - Leaders & Legends.Terry Lundgren served for 14 years as CEO of Macy's, Inc., operator of Macy's, Bloomingdale's, Bluemercury and one of the largest retail ecommerce businesses in America. He retired from Macy's, Inc. in January 2018 after serving for 10 months as the company's Executive Chairman. Prior to becoming CEO of the company in February 2003 and Chairman and CEO in January 2004, Lundgren had been President and Chief Merchandising Officer since May 1997. He is the founder of the Terry J. 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. He is a former board member of Kraft Foods Inc. the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Carnegie Hall and has participated in numerous charitable and civic efforts. He has served as co-chairman of the Partnership for New York City and the American Heart Association CEO Roundtable, and as chairman of the National Retail Federation (twice), National Minority Supplier Development Council, and the American Society of Corporate Executives. Lundgren also currently serves as an Executive In Residence at Columbia Business School.Key Takeaways from Ken's conversation with Terry include:Terry Lundgren's Career Journey: Terry Lundgren started his retail career at Bullocks Department Store, which is now Macy's, and worked his way up to become the CEO of Neiman Marcus at the age of 37. 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. He emphasizes the importance of adapting to the changing retail landscape by providing differentiated reasons for customers to choose one department store over another.Merchandising Strategy: Lundgren highlights the significance of uniqueness in assortment and in-store experience. He suggests that the best merchants will understand consumer expectations and deliver products and experiences that differentiate them from competitors.Collaboration with Brands: Lundgren shares examples of successful collaborations with brands, such as obtaining exclusivity with Tommy Hilfiger. He suggests that aligning with popular brands can attract customers and drive sales of other products within the store.Shop-in-Shop Model: The discussion touches upon the shop-in-shop model, where department stores collaborate with brands or retailers to create dedicated spaces within the store. Lundgren sees this as an opportunity, especially if the partnering brand can manage and operate the space more effectively than the department store itself.Technology in Retail: Lundgren discusses the impact of technology on the retail industry, including the use of RFID for inventory management and the potential of AI and generative AI in enhancing various aspects of the business. He emphasizes the importance of utilizing technology to improve inventory turnover and reduce markdowns.
As waves of new capacity come onstream in China and the Middle East, stagnant demand growth and falling margins are increasing pressure on chemical companies to permanently close older facilities. - Wave of oil-to-chemicals projects will flood market - Global operating rates forecast at 80% to 2030, from 88% long term average- Huge pressure on non-integrated/high-cost facilities to close- More plant closures could be driven by high costs, low demand, decarbonization - High closure costs include environmental cleanup, redundancy payments- Upstream integration to refineries prevents closures- Chemical industry could reinvent itself as service provider - Q3 Europe margins low or negative- Q4 cracker margins improve as oil prices fall - No sign of improvement in downstream demand
The low carbon agenda and global overcapacity could bring new assets to the table for chemicals mergers & acquisitions (M&A). - Major upturn in global chemical M&A in Q2- If industry conditions stabilise, planning for M&A will get easier- Carbon-intensive assets require low carbon plan or risk lower valuation- New M&A opportunities in chemical recycling, hydrogen- Global oversupply could bring more assets to market- Pick right moment in cycle to avoid value destruction In this Think Tank podcast, Will Beacham interviews Guus Greve, podcaster and former head of global downstream and renewables M&A for Shell and ICIS Insight Editor Nigel Davis.

Leslie will be joined by Tom Conway, President of the United Steelworkers (USW), North America's largest industrial union. They're 1.2 million members and retirees strong in the United States, Canada and the Caribbean. They proudly represent men and women who work in nearly every industry there is. The two will have a broad conversation about how national security requires sound trade policy. Here are the subtopics that they'll be covering during the interview: Manufacturing in key sectors like steel and aluminum underpins national security, providing vital resources for our military and helping the nation meet its critical infrastructure needs. Section 232s have been an essential part of this since 2018. While there have been some modifications in relations to trading partners like the European Union and the United Kingdom, these measures remain an essential part in ensuring the U.S. can protect itself and rebuild its infrastructure. Facing global overcapacity, largely driven by China's unfair trade practices, 232 relief measures worked –and are continuing to work – as intended. - In steel, they improved industry conditions, spurred investments, and directly created thousands of new jobs. - They also allowed for needed capital investments so that U.S. steelmakers can continue to produce some of the best, cleanest steel in the world. - And domestic steel is underpinning the massive infrastructure upgrades we're making in communities across the country thanks to President Biden's vision and leadership. This is why a recent ruling by the World Trade Organization (WTO) was not only deeply flawed, but also dangerous. A recent decision by the dispute panel of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, (USMCA), raises similar concerns about overreach. - The WTO has no standing to interfere with national security, and its attempt to do so undermines the credibility of the entire organization. - Allowing China to join the WTO, more than 20 years ago, was a mistake that has allowed the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to leverage its position and continue its predatory practices. - Overcapacity, dumping, and illegal subsidies remain urgent concerns – which the WTO again made clear it is not equipped to address. - Until we have a broader reform of our trade system, we must instead rely on the tools we have at our disposal like filing trade cases and keeping the 232 relief measures in place. The Russian invasion of Ukraine also reinforced how critical trade is to national security. - The U.S. aluminum industry was already struggling, and then last year Century Aluminum Company idled its smelter in Hawesville, Ky.. They were the last domestic producer of commercial quantities of military-grade aluminum remaining after decades of foreign competition undercut the U.S. industry. - Energy prices caused by the war are also hurting European Aluminum producers, leaving markets open to Russian exports. - Sanctions on Russian aluminum will be a critical part of keeping not only the U.S. but the whole world safe, as will bringing new smelting capacity online. As we look to the future, domestic production and sound trade policy will be essential in another aspect of our national security: meeting our energy needs. - There is tremendous potential in areas like offshore wind, and the Biden administration is working to build out our domestic industry and secure the supply chain this industry will need to be successful. - Europe has a significant lead. - And China is ramping up production. Chinese producers are currently able to produce relatively inexpensive products because they can rely on the country's overcapacity in steel, dominance in rare earths, and control over the supply chain, setting up a “race to the bottom.” - So the U.S. needs to act quickly. The previous administration made it clear that we cannot exist in a vacuum when it comes to trade, that we need careful coordination with trusted partners. This is why it is crucial that we're deliberate in our work in the Indo-Pacific region. - The administration's Indo-Pacific Economic Framework contains important priorities, including strong labor and environmental standards. - However, it's essential that the agreement adheres to worker-centered values, and that the U.S. selects only partners who are serious about realizing these goals, and intend to meet its terms. - Only then will this new chapter make our trade policy sounder – and our nation safer.

When the going gets tough, we've all heard or said, “I can't do another thing,” “I can't show up in one more meeting," or “It's all too much. I'm overcapacity”. But the question in this episode is, are you overcapacity or overwhelmed? Tune in as Kimberly deciphers the difference between overcapacity and overwhelmed and asks you to evaluate which one is it? And learn when it's time to be empowered, advocate for yourself, and put yourself in a position to execute at the highest level that is meaningful to you and does not impact your quality of work. KEY POINTS: - Do you work a 9 to 5? Or more like an 8 to 8? - The difference between overwhelmed and overcapacity - How overwhelmed can be fixed, 100%! - Evaluate which one is it? And create solutions, not just problems QUOTABLES: “When new information is coming at you, deadlines are unclear, deliverables are flexible, it's really hard to decipher from being overwhelmed or being overcapacity.” Have career and leadership development questions?

It's often described as a cup. Our cups are over-full or not full enough. With things that have physical limitations, like a building or a production line, we talk about capacity. The number of people a building can hold. The number of widgets a line can produce in an hour or a day. Capacity is all around us as entrepreneurs and small business owners. Often, we are working beyond our capacity in a variety of ways: beyond our time, beyond our skills, beyond our understanding. Resources in small business are limited and that means not only owners but employees are often working beyond or outside their own capacity. Listen in as Michelle and JoyGenea discuss knowing when you're outside capacity and understanding the warning signs in time to add capacity before it's urgently required.

For years, the global steel market has been flooded by excess steel production—with the United States becoming a major dumping destination for this artificially cheap imported steel. And the consequences have been profound. In the final installment of our “Build Back Better Blueprint” series, the Alliance for American Manufacturing's Scott Boos shares what steps the Trump administration has made towards remedying steel overcapacity and how President-elect Joe Biden is likely to respond during his term.

China’s eight-fold expansion in steel production over the past 20 years has resulted in a worldwide oversupply. China now accounts for half of global steel output and is the largest exporter. Steel producers in the United States and other countries have faced a rising tide of imported steel. The U.S. reaction has been to impose antidumping (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) measures to restrict imports. AD/CVD orders have not succeeded in restoring full profitability to U.S. steel mills, but have raised costs for manufacturers that use steel as an input.How did China become the dominant player in the global steel marketplace? Will its production continue to rise, or be curtailed? What are the implications of global oversupply for the American steel industry? And what policy responses might best serve U.S. interests?
