	Description:		China-US relations become even more tense – we assess why the world's two largest economies are locking horns again, and if it can be resolved any time soon. The world’s most valuable car firm, Tesla, and its enigmatic founder Elon Musk, have managed to stun expectations by continuing financial growth throughout the Covid 19 pandemic.
