Could Aluminium Row Lead to US/China Trade War?

World Business Report

Available for over a year

The price of aluminium foil has dropped dramatically in recent years and now American producers say they've had enough. We speak to the President and Chief Executive of America's Aluminum Association who have filed a complaint accusing China for exporting at improperly low prices. Just how close is the Netherlands to leaving the European Union? Ahead of Dutch elections next week, we’re in the southern border province of Limburg to find out what businesses there think. And we investigate Sofar Sounds who are taking music away from concert halls and nightclubs and into more intimate surroundings like car parks, caravans or even a fan's front room. We’re asking their founder what it’s all about. Plus, we look back over the week’s big stories with Charles Forelle from the Wall Street Journal and Peter Coy from Bloomberg.
