Foreign Investors Repatriate Record $97.7B From India Amid FDI and Debt Gains

A record $97.7 billion was returned by foreign investors from Indian investments in FY25, up from $87.5 billion in FY24, thanks to robust FDI inflows

A record $97.7 billion was returned by foreign investors from Indian investments in FY25, up from $87.5 billion in FY24, thanks to robust FDI inflows and gains from loan instruments. Investments in overseas portfolios increased when Indian debt was added to the JPMorgan bond index. By deploying foreign exchange reserves, the RBI also made $21.7 billion, which helped close the investment income shortfall to $52.6 billion. Along with increasing overseas investments, Indian businesses balanced twoway flows. Private equity exits and dividend repatriation are major contributors to this trend, which experts say solidifies Indias position as a top international investment destination. The report shows a more balanced current account, indicating strong economic fundamentals as increased foreign revenue balances out withdrawals from foreign investors. Read More..

In 2025, Zheng Shanjie, the president of the National Development and Reform Commission NDRC, estimated that Chinas GDP will be worth more than $19.5

In 2025, Zheng Shanjie, the president of the National Development and Reform Commission NDRC, estimated that Chinas GDP will be worth more than $19.5 trillion. China maintained a 5.4% average annual growth rate between 2021 and 2024, despite obstacles like COVID19 and trade concerns with the United States. Zheng outlined the 14th FiveYear Plans accomplishments, which included developments in green transformation, innovation, and manufacturing. The plan, which expires in 2025, set this years growth objective at 5%. Chinas drive for independence has been bolstered by international tech limitations, Zheng underlined. Although the next 15th FiveYear Plan was not disclosed, officials are giving household sector contributions top priority in order to maintain growth in the face of deflationary pressures and uncertainty in the global economy.

India to Assess Impact of U.S. Copper Tariff as Global Prices Surge 10%

The U.S. has slapped a 50% duty on copper imports, which India will evaluate, Mines Minister G. Kishan Reddy stated. As part of President Trumps large

The U.S. has slapped a 50% duty on copper imports, which India will evaluate, Mines Minister G. Kishan Reddy stated. As part of President Trumps larger reciprocal trade strategy, the levy produced a 10% increase in world copper prices, which had an impact on Indian stocks such as Vedanta and Hindustan Copper. Experts in the field, however, predict that India will not be much impacted because the nation lacks enough copper and only exports about 10,000 tonnes to the United States each year. India is still a net importer, despite growing domestic demand from industries like electric cars and renewable energy. By 2030, Reddys ministry intends to increase smelting and refining capacity in order to fulfil future demand and lessen strategic vulnerabilities. Read More..

EU Scrambles to Seal U.S. Trade Deal Before August 1 Tariff Deadline

Due to President Trumps threats of sweeping new tariffs, the European Union is rushing to complete a trade agreement with the United States before the August 1 tariff deadline. Trump sent notifications to seven more nations, alluded to penalties on semiconductors and pharmaceuticals, and indicated plans to impose 50% tariffs on copper. According to reports, Trump claims that the EU has become "much more cooperative" and that talks are moving forward. The EU wants a framework deal, maybe in a few days, but Italy cautions that talks are still "very complicated." The proposed agreement may include a baseline tariff of 10%, followed by sectorspecific relief. Over $100 billion worth of U.S. goods might be the subject of punitive actions if negotiations fail.

Canada Accelerates ASEAN Trade Deal to Offset U.S. Tariff Fallout

In an attempt to diversify its export markets in the face of growing U.S. tariffs, Canada is speeding up its attempts to complete a free trade agreeme

In an attempt to diversify its export markets in the face of growing U.S. tariffs, Canada is speeding up its attempts to complete a free trade agreement with ASEAN. Speaking in Kuala Lumpur, Foreign Minister Anita Anand underlined Canadas dedication to multilateralism and closer relations with Southeast Asia. The proposed agreement would lessen dependency on the United States, which recently levied high tariffs on Canadian automobiles, steel, and aluminium. Anand emphasised collaboration in energy, food security, the digital economy, and artificial intelligence, noting that the IndoPacific will propel future global prosperity. If an agreement with Washington cannot be reached by July 21, Canada may impose counterduties. The FTA between ASEAN and Canada is viewed as a calculated step to increase access to emerging markets and insulate Canadian companies from protectionist shocks. Read More..

Microsoft Outlook Suffers Global Outage, Millions Locked Out Since 350 AM IST

Since 350 AM IST on July 10, users of desktop, mobile, and web platforms have been unable to access their emails due to a worldwide outage in Microsof

Since 350 AM IST on July 10, users of desktop, mobile, and web platforms have been unable to access their emails due to a worldwide outage in Microsoft Outlook. More than 62% of users reported having trouble logging in, and others experienced server problems and errors such as "invalid licenses" or "something went wrong." Microsoft blames a lowperforming mailbox infrastructure, which may have been caused by a malfunctioning authentication component. The business is actively implementing a repair, reports that development is "quicker than anticipated," and anticipates a slow recovery. OneDrive and Teams are among the other Microsoft 365 services that are unaffected. This is one of the longest Outlook outages in recent memory, which raises questions about dependability as personal and business communication become more reliant on Microsofts ecosystem.
