The main driver of 1Q2025 #contraction was #Trump’s #trade war. Net exports, the difference b/w what US imports and exports, subtracted nearly 5% from headline GDP. That was the biggest quarterly drag from net exports on record since 1947, chart @wsj.com

#German economy won’t see meaningful growth this year and Trump’s #tariff policies threaten an even bleaker outcome. GDP will only increase 0.1% in 2025 following 2y of #contraction, less than the 0.8% predicted in Sept, chart @economics

More tales from the #forest, with this close up of the remains of the #trunk of a wild #cherry tree which had died, rotted and snapped at about 1m50 height. I don't know how the #woodchips in the well of the #trunk formed, but presumably linked to the structure of the wood, and some kind of specific #weathering due to #contraction in the #summer heat, and #saturation in the #winter humidity.

China's manufacturing activity return'd

If US economy does slide into a #recession, #profits will almost certainly slide further still. Since the WWII #earnings per share have fallen by an average of 13% around periods of economic #contraction, chart @TheEconomist cutt.ly/V9hCLGJ
