Obama and the World: The Global Economy

China’s stunning economic growth is estimated at 10 percent this year. One of the dangers of that pace of growth is inflation.

Marcus Mabry, international business editor of The New York Times, and John Authers, the investment editor for the Financial Times, join Daljit Dhaliwal to discuss the impact of U.S. economic policies overseas, the risk of inflation in China, the fate of Japan’s economy and recovery efforts across Europe.
