Notes From The Road: An Equity Investor’s Lens On China
Headlines over the U.S.-China trade dispute have been practically inescapable. On the heels of a recent visit to China, I can say this is as true there as it is in the U.S. If timing is everything, ours was very good (or bad), as our visit came just as high hopes for a trade deal had collapsed to a deep mutual mistrust.

UK Sparks: Reassure Group Confirms Intention To Float
Reassure Group, the closed life insurance consolidator owned by reinsurer Swiss Re, has confirmed that it intends to list on the London Stock Exchange. The company says it will stage an initial public offering in July, with Swiss Re selling enough shares to provide a free float of at least 25%. No new funds are being raised for Reassure in the float, which is expected to make the company eligible for inclusion in the FTSE UK indices. Reassure says the flotation will increase its “flexibility and appetite for growth” and widen its future access to capital, as well as providing a partial exit for Swiss Re.

A Global Economy Far From “Normal”
Election fever hit India and Australia in May. The former, the largest democratic election in the world, resulted in a comfortable win for the incumbent – Narendra Modi and his Hindu Nationalist Party (Bharatiya Janata Party).
