@@juandoe2696 I think you got everything backwards. The reason US is importing is because they dont produce themselves. The US has a tradedeficit around 1 trillion dollars a year, and have had a deficit for the last 50 years. The handout have been from europe to the US for the last 50 years 😉

[@scrutch666]

Wouldn’t that indicate more a weakening world economy or US economy? Given its a export driven economy

[@bunsw2070]

There's that but also in Europe they brought in rules where you cannot sell ICE vehicles unless you sell a certain percentage of EVs. EVs have stopped selling so they can't sell ICE without paying an inordinate fine. But you can still buy a Ferrari. The fine is negligible with those cars.

It's the chinese economy which is tanking. Has been for a while. It started with the imploding real estate market in china.

It's sad how difficult things have become in this recessive economy. I was wondering how to utilize some money I had. I used some of it for e-commerce business, but that sank. I'm thinking of how to protect my $380K-worth stock portfolio from decline, but haven't figured which way to go.

[@sharonwinson-m8g]

Very difficult indeed, but when the going gets tough, the tough gets going. You have to learn and handle finances properly. you should hire a CFP to help you diversify your assets to include ETFs/index funds/mutual funds and stocks of companies with consistent cash flows. Don't go for penny stocks.

It's a slow down in China contributing.

Energy cost hike makes power purchasing low. High interest rate by the fed make other country currencies weak make purchasing power low. German product also pricey unless it is manufactured in China or Vietnam

German is not a big deal 🤝 for investors no retuerns for investors assured ,day by day hard industerial sector going down by 👎👎👎👎

[@hugolizard]

Is it a slow down on Chinese imports or the Chinese are no longer buying expensive ICT cars from Germany?

[@stefan2796]

It's the chinese economy which is tanking.

[@bkyuch]

Germany is investing massively in renewable energy and more than a half of the production is renewable. There is not a SINGLE nuclear power plant! And still Germany is managing and will go through this weak period.

[@stefan2796]

Not weak, just slow growth. Not unusual. A market economy goes up and down; normal.

[@lokesh303101]

Transition with the Outbound Growth to that of Inbound Growth of European Union 🇪🇺.

[@mitchellchristianson8120]

Who's paying back that money? Volkswagen plus GDP around your car industry I thought it was around 12%. I think it's higher more like 15 Make a deal with the Chinese to build a car plant there once you get one. Maybe more a good enough where they can't refuse. I'd suggest you do that quickly. More investment in China in the last 2 weeks on the last 2 years put together That's when they can retaliate and that's where they are

[@borahatay]

China is the new Germany and Japan in auto industry. Chinese brands provide the needs of customers better than the other countries brands.

[@ResidBabovic]

I'm not sure but it seems to me that car industry increased prices not yesterday but few years ago when Suez channel was stacked. They aren't decreased prices since and now they search for new increase. Nevermind, China would have easier way to stabilise current crisis.
