C-MACC Sunday Thematic & Weekly Recap 195
Fair Trade! Better China Relationships Help All, but Especially China
- Improving relationships with China is imperative to meet energy transition goals globally, but it may worsen competitiveness in the West and enhance other risks.

- Otherwise, we take a deep dive into the liquidity challenges of energy transition in a skittish lending market, US blue ammonia enthusiasm, and ethylene again.
Last week, we discussed 21 Chemicals and Related Products and 106 Companies.
