#BreakingNews Die Rezession ist vorbei, bald auch die Stagnation: 2025 +0,3%, 2026 +1,1% BIP-Wachstum. "Doch ein echter Aufschwung bleibt aus – die 2020er drohen ein verlorenes Jahrzehnt zu werden."

Laut #WIFO-Investitionsbefragung werden die Unternehmensinvestitionen 2025 abermals schrumpfen, insbesondere in der Sachgütererzeugung. Der Rückgang hat sich jedoch verlangsamt und es dürfte die Talsohle erreicht sein. @friesenbichler.bsky.social

Another step by China to get rid of int'l trade. First, Chinese policies managed to monopolise PV and electronics. Then they secured raw material access and seemingly win the car industry. Medical instruments are next. Where's the EU/Austrian strategy?

It was great to visit @inetoxford.bsky.social for the term. Our interdisciplinary supply chain research paves the way for better economic models. In particular, I was working on firm-level surveys and how they can augment large network models and ABMs with reaction functions. Thanks for having me!

Trump demands that Israel drop all court proceedings against "Great War Time Prime Minister" Netanyahu
BREAKING NEWS…I was shocked to hear that the State of Israel, which has just had one of its Greatest Moments in History, and is strongly led by Bibi Netanyahu, is continuing its ridiculous Witch Hunt against their Great War Time Prime Minister! Bibi and I just went through HELL together, fighting a very tough and brilliant longtime enemy of Israel, Iran, and Bibi could not have been better, sharper, or stronger in his LOVE for the incredible Holy Land. Anybody else would have suffered losses, embarrassment, and chaos! Bibi Netanyahu was a WARRIOR, like perhaps no other Warrior in the History of Israel, and the result was something that nobody thought was possible, a complete elimination of potentially one of the biggest and most powerful Nuclear Weapons anywhere in the World, and it was going to happen, SOON! We were fighting, literally, for the Survival of Israel, and there is nobody in Israel’s History that fought harder or more competently than Bibi Netanyahu. Despite all of this, I just learned that Bibi has been summoned to Court on Monday for the continuation of this long running, (He has been going through this “Horror Show” since May of 2020 – Unheard of! This is the first time a sitting Israeli Prime Minister has ever been on trial.), politically motivated case, “concerning cigars, a Bugs Bunny doll, and numerous other unfair charges” in order to do him great harm. Such a WITCH HUNT, for a man who has given so much, is unthinkable to me. He deserves much better than this, and so does the State of Israel. Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State. Perhaps there is no one that I know who could have worked in better harmony with the President of the United States, ME, than Bibi Netanyahu. It was the United States of America that saved Israel, and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu. THIS TRAVESTY OF “JUSTICE” CAN NOT BE ALLOWED!

Um den US-UK 'Deal' einzuordnen, hilft ein Blick auf die US-Leistungsbilanz. Mit UK hat US kaum Güterhandel (X=81, M=69 Mrd. USD) und dort einen Überschuss. Die Action ist im Kapitalmarkt (Primäreinkommen). Der 'Deal' per se ist daher makroökonomisch wenig relevant. @wifo.bsky.social

Man vergisst diese Absurditäten ja irgendwann wieder, aber Trumps oberster Handels-Beauftragter und Zoll-Guru Peter Navarro hat in mehreren seiner Sachbücher den Ökonomen Ron Vara zitiert.
Rona Vara existiert nicht, Navarro hat ihn - als Anagram auf seinen Namen - einfach erfunden:
White House Adviser Peter Navarro Calls Fictional Alter Ego An 'Inside Joke'
Peter Navarro, a key architect of President Trump's trade policy, made up one of the people the adviser repeatedly quotes in his nonfiction books. Navarro's publisher is not amused.
