World Business Report

Available for over a year

President Trump pulls back on imposing tariffs on North American-made cars—at least for now. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½â€™s North America business correspondent, Michelle Fleury, explains the rationale behind the decision. U.S. investment giant BlackRock secures a $23 billion deal to acquire ports along the Panama Canal, coinciding with Trump’s promise to "reclaim" the canal if he returns to office. What does this mean for Panama’s economy and global trade? And we find out why World Cup organisers are planning a Super Bowl-style half-time show for the 2026 final for the first time.
