Good morning. In print today: India’s GDP growth slips to 11-year low; #UAE expat grows vegetables, runs poultry farm at villa; Why is #Minneapolis burning?
Watch | GDP growth dips to 3.1% in Jan-Mar quarter, 4.2% in 2019-2020
The pandemic of 1918–19 cut the United States’ real GDP and consumption by no more than 2 percent. @WalterScheidel considers what the pandemic response then and now reveals about the tradeoffs people are and are not willing to accept:
At 4.2%, growth rate in FY20 is the slowest in over a decade. But more worrying is the unprecedented sharp downward revision to GDP growth in Q1, Q2 & Q3. What does it mean for the sanctity of the data & growth going forward? @Latha_Venkatesh
"We had forecast that GDP for Q4 will touch a new low at below 4 per cent. It has turned out to be worse at 3.1 per cent," Chidambaram tweeted.
Data released by the National Statistical Office (NSO) on Friday also showed overall GDP growth in 2019-20 slowing to an 11-year low of 4.2%
A day after India released figures revealing that last year's GDP hit a 11-year low, woke up to this missive from the prime minister about everything this government has accomplished.
Before the 2008-09 crisis, the Indian economy had shown a high growth rate of about 8% on average. Before the current crisis, the GDP had been consistently sliding since 2016-17, writes D K Srivastava. #IndianEconomy

If the Fed had done its job properly, which it has not, the Stock Market would have been up 5000 to 10,000 additional points, and GDP would have been well over 4% instead of 3%...with almost no inflation. Quantitative tightening was a killer, should have done the exact opposite!
“President Trump would need a magic wand to get to 4% GDP,” stated President Obama. I guess I have a magic wand, 4.2%, and we will do MUCH better than this! We have just begun.
....Germany pays 1% (slowly) of GDP towards NATO, while we pay 4% of a MUCH larger GDP. Does anybody believe that makes sense? We protect Europe (which is good) at great financial loss, and then get unfairly clobbered on Trade. Change is coming!
The idea of a European Military didn’t work out too well in W.W. I or 2. But the U.S. was there for you, and always will be. All we ask is that you pay your fair share of NATO. Germany is paying 1% while the U.S. pays 4.3% of a much larger GDP - to protect Europe. Fairness!
Our Country is doing so well in so many ways. Great jobs numbers, with a record setting December. We are rebuilding our military. Vets finally have Choice & Accountability. Economy & GDP are strong. Tax & Reg cuts historic. Trade deals great. But we MUST fix our Southern Border!
