Chinese exports jump in August
==========
China's exports rose 8.7% year-on-year in August 2024, up from 7.0% in July; this exceeded the 6.6% forecast by Bloomberg analysts. Imports only grew 0.5%, down from 7.2% in July and below the 2.5% estimate. Consumer inflation reached a six-month high but still fell short of expectations, raising concerns about potential deflation. Zhang Zhiwei, President and Chief Economist at Pinpoint Asset Management, noted the diverging trends of weak domestic demand and strong export competitiveness, questioning the sustainability of export strength amid a weakening US economy and rising trade tensions. China's economic recovery has been uneven since late 2022.

Trading in local currencies among SAARC countries to boost economic growth
==========
Trading in local currencies among SAARC countries has immense potential for economic stability, growth, and regional cooperation. Collaborative efforts, policy innovation, and strategic agreements on local currencies can pave the way for more resilient and integrated regional economies. The seminar on 'Trading in local Currencies: Problems and Prospects for the SAARC Countries' was organized by Bangladesh Bank. Bangladesh Bank Governor Abdur Rauf Talukder, Chief General Manager of Reserve Bank of India Aditya Gayha, Secretary of the Ministry of Finance Md Khairuzzaman Majumdar, Deputy Governor of Bangladesh Bank Md. Habibur Rahman, and Executive Director Saira Yunus spoke at the event. The US dollar has been dominant in international trade, but many countries are seeking alternatives due to geopolitical tensions, economic sanctions, and imbalances. By trading in local currencies among SAARC countries, dependence on the US economy can be reduced, increasing economic stability and reducing exchange risk and transaction costs. Challenges include establishing strong bilateral agreements, cooperation frameworks, ensuring stability and convertibility of local currencies, and maintaining trade balance.

US House okays Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan aid, threatens TikTok
==========
The US House of Representatives has approved a $95 billion package that includes military aid to Ukraine, bolstering Israel and Taiwan's defenses, and threatening to ban Chinese-owned TikTok. The bills were overwhelmingly approved and praised by President Joe Biden. The bill will now go to the US Senate for consideration. The financing of the war in Ukraine has been a point of contention between Democrats and Republicans. The bill also includes provisions to counter China and provide weapons to Taiwan. The aid package for Israel includes $13 billion in military assistance. Iran and Israel appeared to step back from broader conflict as the US approved new Israeli military aid. The Palestinian presidency condemned the aid package to Israel as an aggression against the Palestinian people.
