    "That’s bad enough, but tolerable, says Morgan Stanley, which makes the case that if those 10% tariffs are kept for longer than four or five months, global growth will remain weak in the range of 2.8% to 3%, despite interest-rate cuts from central banks.

    Global growth was 3.6% in 2018 and projected to grow 3.2% in 2019, according to the July estimates from the International Monetary Fund.

    Morgan Stanley defines a global recession as one where global growth is below 2.5%."

    I'll take 2.5% GDP growth in the US while China slides into recession if that's what you are currently offering.

    That’s not what Morgan Stanley said for US gdp growth.
    Funny enough I'm having trouble finding the original Morgan Stanley note as nobody citing it bothers to link it and it's buried by headlines. I was actually curious. Link? good buddy.

    There you go being a misogynist again. Don't you know how hurtful it is to mock women like that? I am telling your leaders that you committed a gender specific foul!

    Now go find your safe place and reflect on your white male privileged ways.

    We have to destroy free trade with tariffs to save free trade.

    What other solution do you have?

    I know lil' buddy, we should just let them take more advantage of the American people and put more out of work with higher trade deficits. How much do you want to let them steal in intellectual property? 10 Trillion? How many trillions until you FEEL GOOD about our relationship with China?
    There’s a solution in this post? I noticed that once again you never answer any questions,
    The solution is to wait them out dumbfuck. Did you think the Communists were going to care whether they were stealing our technology or putting our people out of work by dumping their junk into this country? We had to draw a line at some point. As we saw with BO he just laid down like a fucking rug and told Americans manufacturing in this country was dead. Brilliant.

    Manufacturing remains a small part of the US economy. Daddy's trade war has driven it into recession.
    We've had two quarters in a row of negative GDP? Got a link Kunt?
    Manufacturing is in recession. It was in all the papers. You're not bright.
    Tax cuts will bring our manufacturing jobs back!!

    @UW_Doog_Bot - what's your take on the Chinese devaluing their currency today?

    Head fake or justified?

    The Throbber doesn't trust those sneaky bastards.

    I actually think there's a huge loss of demand for the Yuan and that China is actually probably trying to prop it up not the other way around. Just my guess though. I think the 6.5(or 6.2)% GDP growth figures are complete horseshit and mirror targets way to well despite huge losses in demand across multiple sectors. It's the same playbook as the great leap forward when iron production was falsified to make leadership happy. There's no one place to point to but there's systematic bias and error in measurement down to a grassroots level. When you have over a billion people measuring something with bias you can end up with some wildly inaccurate measurements.

    I'm educated on a lot of the subject and watch a lot of these things closely but this is all still my best guess. Please don't make any currency bets on my takes. Dismal science is dismal to begin with and I'm not half as tuned in as I once was to international supply chains.

    I still don't trust those sneaky bastards as far as I can throw them.

    But to your point - the Chinese aren't so good at measuring and accounting for things. Between blatant dishonesty and variance over a LARGE base, I just flat don't believe their numbers most of the time.

    Can't wait for all the low paying jobs making plastic crap come back to the US.

    Sorry, this is more about the theft of about a trillion in IP a year which is one of the most important sectors of the US economy. It roughly translates to about 5% in immediate measurable GDP loss. How different do you think the economy would look with an added 5% growth per year in the last decade?
