Why a big slump in South Korea’s exports matters
A rarer sight these daysNEW trade figures from South Korea on September 1st surprised even the gloomiest of economic forecasters. The country’s exports shrank by the largest annual amount in six years, down 14.7% last month from a year earlier to under $40 billion, according to the ministry of trade, industries and energy. Few analysts had expected more than a 6% drop: though exports have dropped every month since January, they declined just 3.4% in July in annual terms. Morgan Stanley, an investment bank, tempered its growth forecast for South Korea down to 2.3% from 2.5% for the year.
Exports account for roughly half of South Korea’s GDP—and a quarter of all those go to China, its biggest trading partner. South Korea has been struggling with the rise of its currency, the won, against the Japanese yen in key export markets; now China’s successive devaluations have started to bite. Provisional figures released today showed that South Korean car shipments dropped steeply in August, by nearly a third. Though exports of smartphones rose, fast-rising Chinese handset makers are increasingly vying with Samsung...Continue reading

When a 26% plunge in GDP feels fine
WITH unemployment at 25%, government debt at more than 170% of GDP, and the country’s politics in turmoil, the 26% peak-to-trough decline in output brought about by the euro-zone crisis has been highly traumatic for Greece. Yet the government of Macau, the one-time Portuguese colony now the world’s gambling capital, just released figures showing that the territory’s GDP fell by 26.4% year-on-year in the second quarter. But at first blush Macau’s real economy appears to be doing rather fine. In spite of the steep fall in GDP, unemployment remained at its full employment level of 1.8%, private consumption grew and the territory’s government ran a budget surplus. Is the Macanese economy also about to run off a cliff?
It turns out that not all GDP is created equal. Macau, which in 2014 boasted GDP per head of $89,000, owes its prosperity to its casinos, which alone account for almost half of total output. The Chinese government’s anti-corruption campaign has caused gaming revenues to decline by 40% and other tourism revenues to fall by 21.5%. With gaming and tourism accounting for such a large share of total...Continue reading
