Why European Companies Are Doubling Down on China Manufacturing
Description
Lucas and Luna dig into a surprising headline from May 27, 2026: European industrial profits in China are surging, and companies are expanding factories despite EU de-risking rhetoric. They unpack why manufacturing in China remains too profitable to abandon, with specific data on the 24.7% jump in industrial profits and the implications for global supply chains. Lucas explains how day traders can watch this trend through commodity currencies, shipping rates, and select ETF flows. Luna pushes back on the narrative, pointing out that political risk is real even if profits are high. A focused 10-minute episode on a single contrarian angle that most business coverage is getting wrong.
