I’m joined by Brian McCarthy, founder and chief strategist for Macrolens. McCarthy is a regular traveler to China, and his interactions on the mainland shaped his views of the financial risks in the Chinese market. Macrolens is a provider of independent macroeconomic research dedicated to helping investors better understand the Chinese macroeconomy. Brian has testified on the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission. We discussed the lockdown in Shanghai and if there will be a severe impact on the global economy. We also discussed the state of the U.S.-China relationship and their economic links to each other, with a focus on what happened when China did not meet its Phase 1 deal during the Trump-era trade war.   Follow David on Twitter: @DavidZhangEET Follow EpochTV on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EpochTVus Twitter: https://twitter.com/EpochTVus Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/EpochTV Gettr: https://gettr.com/user/epochtv Gab: https://gab.com/EpochTV Telegram: https://t.me/EpochTV Parler: https://parler.com/#/user/EpochTV
