An artificial-intelligence bust, inflation and fiscal stress are among the most alarming threats to global prosperity at present, the Bank for International Settlements warned.

We speak to Oliver Shale, Investment Specialist at Ruffer.

Plus - South Korea's Samsung Group and SK Group are poised to announce as much as 2,000 trillion won ($1.3 trillion) of investments over the next decade as part of President Lee Jae Myung's flagship industrial strategy, the Korea Economic Daily reported.
