Trader Joe’s − a grocery chain with a loyal clientele and social media following and more than 500 stores across the country − has a lot of fans. But after issuing a slew of recalls in less than two months, is it time to worry?
In May 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared an end to the COVID-19 pandemic (1). Despite that announcement, fallout from the pandemic continues to reverberate through global supply chains, exposing their opacity and fragility and catalyzing their transformation. Geopolitical issues, such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and rising tensions between the United States and China, have shaped supply-chain transformation, resulting in what I call a “supply-chain iron curtain” that is poised to complicate international trade (2).
Our earth is getting hotter. As the summer heat temperature rises, the UK and EU are transitioning to electric vehicles (EVs) to reduce carbon emissions. To meet their ambitious EV adoption targets, they should embrace those affordable EVs made in China.
If you own stocks, chances are good you have heard the term ESG. It stands for environmental, social and governance, and it is a way to laud corporate leaders who take sustainability – including climate change – and social responsibility seriously and punish those who do not. In less than two decades since a United Nations report drew attention to the concept, ESG investing has evolved into a $35 trillion industry. Money managers overseeing one-third of total U.S. assets under management said they used ESG criteria in 2020, and by 2025 global assets managed in portfolios labeled “ESG” are expected to reach $53 trillion.
Amid the trade war and technology war between the United States and China, the German government used the term “de-risking” to describe its strategy on China in a 64-page report on July 13. After establishing a solid trade relationship between China and Germany, the Chinese Government finds the term de-risking counter-productive at best and offensive at worst.
Russia has pounded Ukraine's southern cities with drones and missiles this week, damaging critical port infrastructure and grain terminals.
Why Russia pulled out of its grain deal with Ukraine – and what that means for the global food system. From The Conversation.
Carnegie Mellon University study concludes that online grocery delivery is likely increasing emissions
The Russia-Ukraine grain deal that has been critical to keeping global food prices stable and preventing famine is currently in tatters. On July 17, 2023, Russia said it was pulling out of the year-old deal, which allowed shipments of grains and other foodstuffs to travel past the Russian naval blockade in the Black Sea. And to make matters worse, over the next two days Russia bombed the Ukrainian grain port of Odesa, destroying over 60,000 tons of grain.
