On today's podcast:
(1) Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves made one thing clear in her audit of UK public spending on Monday. The new Labour government plans to front-load the bad news, leaving as much time as possible to repair and rebuild the economy before the next election in five years' time.
(2) Standard Chartered expanded its multi-billion dollar share buyback program as the bank reported a rise in pretax profits driven by its wealth business.
(3) Chinese brands captured 11% of the European electric-car market in June, notching record registrations as manufacturers raced to beat stiff European Union tariffs that took effect early this month.
(4) Donald Trump said he expects to eventually debate Vice President Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee, after previously declining to commit to appear at a scheduled face-off.
(5) Venezuela's opposition can prove that Edmundo González won Sunday's election, according to María Corina Machado, who led the campaign against President Nicolás Maduro.
