Since entering 2022, due to the influence of many factors such as the new crown epidemic and the turbulent situation in Europe, the first half of 2022 is destined to be an extraordinary year. However, even so, the global economy has achieved outstanding performance. So, after the global GDP rankings were released in the first half of 2022, which countries will be strongly on the list?
The United States topped the list with 12 trillion yuan, and China followed closely behind
There is no doubt that the United States, as the world's largest economy, will naturally still top the list. In the first six months of this year, the United States occupied the top spot with 12.267 total GDP of women, and its average growth rate is 0.7 percentage points higher than China, which is closely behind the United States.
China's year-on-year growth rate in the first six months of this year was about 2.5%, while the total GDP was US$8.678 trillion, the gap compared to the United States is less than US$4.0 million. With the obvious control of the national epidemic in the second half of the year, it will inevitably be greatly beneficial to the export industry.
All kinds of flowers in Europe and the United States are blooming, and Japan's growth rate is at the bottom
The third place is Japan's total GDP in the first six months of this year, which is close to US$2.2 trillion. However, if you want to catch up with us, it seems that there is still a long way to go. After all, China's total GDP in the first half of the year is almost 4 times that of Japan, and Japan's growth rate is undoubtedly the lowest among the top 10 lists, only 0.9%.
ranked 4th and 5th on the list are Germany and the United Kingdom. As two old economic powerhouses in Europe, Germany's total GDP has exceeded the US$2.0 trillion mark in the first two months of this year, while the United Kingdom ranked fifth on the list with US$1.596 trillion.
ranked sixth on the list with a population of 1.4 billion. Although India's total GDP in the first half of this year was only 1.719 trillion US dollars, it became the fastest-growing country on the list with an average growth rate of 8.4%, with a total GDP of 1.418 trillion US dollars, and Canada ranked behind France with a total GDP of 1.046 trillion US dollars.
Italy's GDP growth rate in the first six months of this year was 5.2%, but it still did not exceed the US$1.00 billion mark above the total GDP. At the bottom of the list is South America's Brazil , with a total GDP of US$9.16 billion in the first six months of this year.
The United States may face economic recession in 2023, and China faces difficulties
After looking at the top 10 global rankings in the first half of this year, we found that although China still ranks second on the list with a total GDP of more than US$8,000 billion, it seems that the average economic growth rate is far lower than that of the United States. So in the next few years, is it possible that China will replace the United States and become the world's number one economy?
In my opinion, this is actually completely possible. In fact, the reason why China's economic growth rate in the first half of the year was entirely due to the impact of the epidemic, which naturally led to a huge blow to the consumer side, which indirectly dragged down the rapid growth of China's economy. With the obvious retreat of the epidemic factors in the second half of the year, China's economy will inevitably revitalize again in the future.
. In order to cope with the ultra-high unemployment rate and inflation, the United States has launched a policy of hikes many times in recent times. This unprecedented big move will naturally bring huge pressure to the US economy. Even Goldman Sachs, one of the three international economic forecasts, said that it is expected that the United States will experience an economic recession once in a century next year.
For China, in the face of the epidemic environment, how to find solutions to stimulate economic development from the Book of Changes is definitely worth our deep thinking. The epidemic has affected us for three years, and we have also begun to carry out some responses to the negative situation of the epidemic. For example, while the impact of the epidemic on our lives is gradually weakening, we have also developed a series of medical supporting facilities accordingly, which naturally indirectly drives the development of China's economy. Although the vaccine and nucleic acid industries cannot fully promote the comprehensive takeoff of China's economy, at least it is better than nothing.
