Trump Criticises 'Predatory' Trade

President Trump has laid out his vision for the future of trade in Davos.

President Trump has laid out his vision for the future of trade in Davos. The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's business editor, Simon Jack, tells us how the president's speech was received at the World Economic Forum. And Heather McGregor, dean of the Business School at Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh asks whether a trip to Davos is worth the $28,000 ticket price. Also in the programme, as the latest US growth figures are revealed, our reporter finds out how construction firms are faring a year after the president was inaugurated. From India we hear why some of the country's richest businessmen and film stars will be spending millions of dollars on cricket players in the Indian Premier League this weekend. Plus we look back at the rest of the week's big business stories with Hal Hodson of The Economist in London, and Akane Otani from the Wall Street Journal in New York.
