Hong Kong’s return from isolation is gathering pace but a long road lies ahead
Hong Kong, a city whose blazing night skyline encircles a mystical harbour, was once the defining metaphor of a bustling Asian metropolis. Those images became visual shorthand for the rise of Asia and even the ‘Chinese Century.’ Now, all is change. For the past few months, the Hong Kong government has felt compelled to launch a ‘Night Vibes’ campaign to get more of the local population out at night.

Stocks finished lower as risk-off seemed to be a theme yesterday, with oil prices slumping below $70. Oil has been a harbinger of all things these days, and the best thing that can happen with oil, at least over the next 6 to 12 months, is to do nothing. Rising oil could stoke more inflation while falling oil suggests global growth is a real concern. Oil above $70 and below $90 would be ideal, but unfortunately, that is not happening.

B&K sees another 10% upside in 12 months BofA has discussed some key macro lessons of 2023 and their investment implications: Contrary to the unanimous consensus a year ago predicting a U.S. recession in 2023, the economy defied expectations and continued its robust performance.

Chinese ships visit Cambodian naval base
Chinese warships have made a first visit to a Cambodian naval base that Washington has long feared will boost Beijing's influence in the Gulf of Thailand. A Cambodian defence ministry official said on Thursday that Chinese-funded work to expand the Ream base, near the port city of Sihanoukville, would be «finished soon». Cambodian Defence Minister Tea Seiha said on his Facebook page that he had visited the two ships docked at the base on Sunday «to prepare a training of our Cambodian naval fleet». Cambodian officials refused to give any details of the vessels, the purpose of their visit or how long they were staying, but a sign on one of the gangways identified it as belonging to the Chinese navy. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said: «China and Cambodia have an extremely deep friendship, and the two sides have developed richly successful cooperation in many fields.» The Vice-Chairman of China's Central Military Commission, General He Weidong, visited Phnom Penh earlier this week and met Prime Minister Hun Manet. Cambodia has long had close relations with Beijing and US officials fret that the base will boost China's effort to buttress its international heft with a string of naval and military outposts. Satellite imagery published in July showed that a 363-metre (1,190-foot) pier had been built jutting out into the sea.

Marico boss Harsh Mariwala blown away by Vicky Kaushal’s ‘spectacular’ performance, 'Sam Bahadur' crosses Rs 35 cr in 6 days
Sam Bahadur’ has made quite an impact both at the box-office as well as on the audience, despite facing stiff competition from the Goliath, the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer ‘Animal’. On December 7, Harsh Mariwala, the founder and Chairman of Marico, took to X (formerly Twitter) and heaped praises on the Vicky Kaushal-starrer. The business tycoon gushed about Kaushal’s tour-de-force performance as Sam Manekshaw, India’s first Field Marshal, and called it “nothing short of spectacular.” He also lauded director Meghna Gulzar for celebrating the contributions and life of a “strategic genius”, who till recently was often ignored by the annals of Indian history. “The film brilliantly captures key historical events involving Bangladesh, Pakistan, and China, offering a window into important chapters of the past. Vicky Kaushal's portrayal of Sam Manekshaw is nothing short of spectacular, bringing to life the charisma and courage of this celebrated military leader. Meghna Gulzar and her team have done a commendable job in highlighting the contributions of a strategic genius whose story, despite its significance, might have remained largely uncelebrated,” reads his tweet.
