Lucas and Luna cut through the noise each episode, examining Beijing's latest monetary and fiscal moves, trade tensions with the US and EU, and the ripple effects across Asia-Pacific markets. They ground every conversation in real-time data from Chinese industrial production, PMIs, and export figures — no punditry, just the numbers and the strategic outlook. Whether dissecting the PBOC's rate decisions, the impact of export controls on semiconductors, or the shifting dynamics of ASEAN supply chains, this show serves investors, analysts, and executives who need to understand China's role in global markets — not headlines, but the underlying incentives and constraints. Expect a calm, evidence-based dissection of what works, what doesn't, and what could change next. Lucas challenges official narratives with data; Luna asks the uncomfortable questions about debt, demographics, and decoupling.

In this episode, Lucas and Luna examine how Beijing is racing to build a closed-loop supply chain for battery materials, the companies positioning themselves in the recycling sector, and whether this could reduce China's reliance on imported lithium and cobalt. They discuss the economics of recycling vs. mining, the regulatory push from Beijing, and why recyclers are still struggling to turn a profit. Plus, a look at how this ties into trade tensions and China's broader resource strategy. #China #EVBatteries #BatteryRecycling #Lithium #Cobalt #ElectricVehicles #SupplyChain #CircularEconomy #Beijing #CATL #Economics #CleanEnergy #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Trade #Resources #Technology #Asia Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"China produces over 70% of the world's lithium-ion batteries, but a wave of used EV batteries is about to hit the recycling stream.
