About this episode
We are live at the ECB’s annual forum in Sintra, Portugal, where ECB President Christine Lagarde plays down suggestions of a soft landing in the euro zone as price pressures linger. In the U.S., the Supreme Court historically rules that immunity extends to ex-presidents over official acts which would see a delay to former President Donald Trump’s Washington trial for attempting to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Wall Street begins July in the green with Treasury yields rising as investors mull the return of Trump to the White House. In France, the French leftist and centrist blocs face a deadline to merge against the Rassemblement National, urging third-placed candidates to withdraw. And in the UK, party leaders make their last-minute pitches to voters ahead of this Thursday’s general election.
