For Beijing, the US capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro was a mixed bag -- an embarrassing surprise, a wake-up call over its alliances in Latin America and an opening to step up on the world stage, according to Nicholas Burns, the former US ambassador to China.

On today’s Big Take, host David Gura and Ambassador Burns discuss how President Donald Trump’s military actions and threats are reshaping China’s relationships across the Pacific and the Taiwan Strait—and how the so-called “Donroe Doctrine” could ultimately hand China a global edge.

Since the 2008 financial crisis, private equity firms and other large investors have bought hundreds of thousands of homes across the US, expanding their footprint in the American real estate market. But President Trump blindsided the industry with a Truth Social post last week, announcing he would push for a ban on Wall Street investors scooping up single-family homes.

On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg real estate reporter Patrick Clark and Bloomberg CityLab reporter Kriston Capps join host Sarah Holder to explain how big investors got a slice of the US housing market and whether pushing them out would actually put a dent in the country’s affordability crisis.
