麻豆约拍

In the last quarter of 2021 the US economy grew at a better than expected annualised 6.9%. We get a sense of what that feels like on the ground from Curtis Blair, president and chief executive of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce. Also in the programme, the 麻豆约拍's Mariko Oi reports from Singapore on why food price inflation across Asia is in general not as high as elsewhere in the world. As drinksmaker Diageo unveils a boost in sales for the first half of its financial year of 16%, we find out what's driving the uptick from the firm's chief executive, Ivan Menezes. Plus, following a number of recent takeovers of English football clubs by overseas owners, the 麻豆约拍's Vivienne Nunis reports on whether private ownership is the best way for clubs to operate.

Today's edition is presented by Sasha Twining, and produced by Sarah Hawkins and Sara Parry.
