Content overview: “Stephen Roach: China's Economy Unbalanced, AI Deal Hard to Envision”. Stephen Roach, senior fellow at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs and former chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia, shares his insights on the recent meeting between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. According to Roach, the summit left many unresolved questions about tariffs, technology restrictions, rare earth leverage, and Taiwan, even as both sides appeared to project some stability. Roach argues that China's economy remains unbalanced, and an AI deal between the two countries is hard to envision given the current geopolitical climate.

In this appearance on Bloomberg The Close, Roach provides a sobering analysis of US-China relations, highlighting the challenges that lie ahead.
