Times of economic US, China, India, Sweden, Denmark, Globe:-
China is bouncing back from the effects of coronavirus and the world is watching to see what they can expect from life after lockdown. China's Times of economic is now functioning. it's around 90 percent of normal levels.
90 percent is an incredible achievement but in practice will feel very very strange a 90 percent economy may not sound too bad but for many it could be catastrophic, some of the worst unemployment numbers in this country's history 6.6 million plus people laid off in a single week it wouldn't be that surprising if we think we kind of through the worst of it we end a lockdown and then actually been finished that's it even worse as global lock downs ease the economy faces the greatest challenge in living memory.
Here's what you need to know in China factories are up and running ,classrooms are full, restaurants are open but the economy has not returned to normal in fact its operating at around 90% of usual levels and as lockdowns e's elsewhere this 90% economy could be what the rest of the world has to look forward to regardless of how countries have dealt with the pandemic.

It's becoming clear that once businesses have to operate with social distancing in place the economy can be expected to shrink by about 10 percent whether that's in South Korea, America or Sweden but the missing 10% will mean life will feel far from normal in China large chunks of everyday life are missing having collapsed in January.
Consumer footfall has recovered to about half its previous levels hotel occupancy is still down by around 50% and 75% fewer people are flying what's mainly in the missing 10% is stuff that it's hard to do if you're trying to social visit so things like restaurants at hotels theaters cinemas and crucially it's also the way in which people tend to have fun there's a world where you work and then as soon as the day is over you immediately get back to your house as fast as possible this dip in so-called fun spending will continue .
Even after lockdowns are relaxed in Sweden most people were never asked to stay at home during the pandemic but Swedish spending patterns over the past few months have mirrored those in neighboring Denmark which has been under lockdown daily restaurant turnover fell by 70 percent last month as uncertainty over the Times of economic and fear of infection meant fewer Swedes ate out and while overall Danish spending fell by 29 percent during lockdown.
Swedes cut their spending by almost as much what the evidence suggests now is that actually it's people's own voluntary decisions about how they behave with shaping economies actually more than what the government is telling people to do.

The lockdown itself is not really influencing behavior that much the true. economic impact of imposing lockdowns will take time to emerge in China it was several months after the lockdown began to be lifted before bankruptcy numbers started to rise.
it wouldn't be that surprising if we think we kind of through the worst of it we end the lockdown and then actually bail in film starts to get even worse than we had expectefor the past few months the global economy has been propped up by unprecedented levels of state aid in Europe's five largest economies one in five workers is currently in a special scheme where the state pays their wages the governor has deployed 750 billion euros to sustain companies that's unprecedented the government is going to step in and help to pay people's wages.

It will impact all levels of the economy let's take a look at one scenario a small business owner runs a chain of restaurants when the pandemic hits he takes out a loan and furloughs his staff he's not alone in March more cash was handed out to UK businesses than in any month since records began after lockdown.
