energy efficiency: Since that time, Australia's population has grown by over 3 million and our GDP has grown by over 400bn, according to The Guardian. Renewable energy generation on the other hand has more than doubled, and significant increases in energy efficiency along with uptake of rooftop solar have resulted in falling energy consumption.

Renewable energy is key to Australia's economic growth. While our regulators and transmission grid still have some catching up to do, there is no doubt that an abundance of low cost energy is good news for Australian households and industry if our politicians can cope with the change.

bitcoin: What's going on Bullish experts say the strong showing could signal that bitcoin has a future as a worthy investment opportunity, according to CNN. But the currency's volatile and controversial history has prompted plenty of skepticism. It tapered off slightly by mid-afternoon, but is still trading at its highest level in nearly a year. Bitcoin has typically been regarded as risky, said Dan Held, co-founder of Interchange, a company that advises businesses on how to manage their crypto assets. After all, the currency skyrocketed in value Monday when the Dow plunged 617 points, perhaps suggesting that investors turned to bitcoin as a safe haven asset. But he said the currency's resurgence might be the first inkling that it holds weight as a risk off trade an investment treated as a safer bet when markets are tumultuous, like bonds or gold.

director: The analysis sounded semi-credible because he had been the telephony giant's finance director, according to The Guardian. The shares enjoyed a rare good day. Defying the sceptics, he came out fighting the following month and declared the distribution to shareholders to be affordable. Six months later, Read has returned to his calculator and the divi is being slashed, or rebased in the silly corporate-speak, by 40%. What's changed Nothing solid. Rather, Vodafone's boardroom has been infected by caution about debt.

ride-sharing service: The lack of positive excitement for the biggest listing of a US technology company since Facebook in 2012 suggests investors are becoming choosier, according to Global Times China. Even the IPO price set on Thursday was a disappointment compared to some expectations. The ride-sharing service's shares opened below the initial public offering price - valuing the company at around 70 billion, based on outstanding shares, soon after they started trading on Friday. At 45 per share, it valued Uber at around 75 billion, or more than 82 billion counting dilution from outstanding options and such. The firm lost approximately 1 billion in the first quarter. Like many other recent tech IPOs - but unlike Facebook, which was profitable - Uber relies on investors' belief that it will one day grow enough to escape its current ocean of red ink.

vehicle sales: Electric vehicle sales are rising fast, and battery installation is climbing largely thanks to China, where battery demand rose more than 175 percent in the first quarter. ; Before getting carried away with images of electric cars racing down roadways and crowding out gas guzzlers, there's a stark reality to consider Electric vehicles that appeal to swathes of consumers remain few and far between, and those on the road are still too expensive, according to The Japan Times. How, despite all the grand aspirations and investment, can this cost barrier persist One of the main culprits is battery technology. At one of the world's largest auto shows in Shanghai this year, several manufacturers boasted their snazzy concept cars and talked up imminent launches. Batteries comprise about half the cost of an electric car. In China, the average selling price for batteries at the end of last year was close to 180 per kilowatt hours, down 11 percent from a year earlier but still higher than experts and analysts' expectations. While batteries have gotten less expensive over the past few years, they're still not cheap enough to put the overall cost of a green car on par with a regular one. (news.financializer.com).

years reading: However, some people have always been skeptical about the positive performance of the Chinese economy, according to Global Times China. For instance, a so-called internal investigation surfaced at the end of last year saying that after deducting the price factor, China's actual economic growth rate was negative in 2018. Overall, economic development generally maintained steady progress. So, what is the true picture of the Chinese economy during the period in question Some gauges of the real economy could be used to measure whether the strong economic start this year has the support of the real economy. It was the first time in two years the reading rose above 50, the mark that separates industrial expansion from contraction. First of all, China's purchasing managers' index PMI - a gauge of the manufacturing sector - came in at 50.5 in March, up from 49.2 in February. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.

wage growth: However, annual wage growth slowed to 3.2 per cent in the three months to March compared to 3.5 per cent a month earlier, the Office for National Statistics ONS said, according to The Independent.

carlos ghosn: News of the talks comes as Nissan was set to report on Tuesday its lowest annual operating profit in a decade, hurt by slumping U.S. sales, aging models and a product cycle that's out of sync, according to The Japan Times. The merger proposal came after the most tumultuous few months in the companies' two-decade partnership, which was shaken by the shock arrest of the alliance's chief architect and former chairman, Carlos Ghosn. Talks have been ongoing since Renault Chairman Jean-Dominique Senard first made an informal proposal to Nissan Chief Executive Officer Hiroto Saikawa in April, the source said, asking not to be identified because the discussions aren't public. ; Nissan rebuffed the idea then and has continued to oppose it, the source said. Nissan declined to comment on the discussions. A merger under a holding company won't help solve Nissan's current operational issues, such as high fixed-costs, unprofitable models and flawed Datsun and Infiniti brand strategies, the source said, adding that a new structure will cause delays in addressing these issues because of logistical and regulatory hurdles. Representatives for Renault didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.

change schedule: This change to the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 was partly a response to a rapid evidence review by the chief medical officer, which concluded that some medicinal cannabis products were effective for some medical conditions, and partly due to formal advice from the government's Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs to change the schedule, according to The Independent. Perhaps a more powerful driver of the rescheduling was a well-organised publicity campaign discussing the treatment of sick children that was compelling, emotional and difficult to challenge. Medicinal cannabis products were moved from schedule 1, meaning they have no medicinal value, to schedule 2, which allowed doctors to prescribe them under certain circumstances. The campaign used confrontational tactics, had large financial backing and privileged access to national media and senior politicians.

china: The size of the Chinese economy was 13.6 trillion in 2018, while that of India's was around 2.8 trillion, according to Global Times China. If India wants to narrow the gap with China in the size of its economy, its annual economic growth must be several times the Chinese growth rate. Regardless of whether it is provocative for some Western media to bring up the topic, it is true that in terms of economic development, the gap between China and India has widened, which is mainly determined by the growth momentum of the two economies. That's very unlikely for India, considering China's still relatively fast growth pace. Since the Modi government has changed the statistical methodology and the base year for calculating GDP, there has always been skepticism surrounding the new growth statistics. Moreover, while Indian GDP growth rates reached 6.7 percent and above over the past five years from 2014 to 2018, statistical reasons may have affected the data. (news.financializer.com).

china: Factual comparison of the economic situations of China and the US reveals the following growth under the Trump administration is extremely slow by US historical standards, while China's economy is growing twice as fast as the US and has greater resilience than the US, and China's methods of macroeconomic control are much stronger than those of the US. These relative situations are confirmed by both the latest economic data and long-term economic trends, according to Global Times China. To accurately analyze US economic dynamics it is necessary to remove false claims made by the US administration. But, in very serious matters, there is no virtue in exaggeration -- there is only virtue in realism. President Trump has repeatedly claimed that America's economy is booming like never before, but when this claim was made to delegates at the UN General Assembly, the Washington Post noted that people actually laughed. Facts show that under President Trump, the US is currently experiencing the slowest economic growth of any presidency since World War II. Using the method by which the US presents data, peak growth under Trump of 4.2 percent in the second quarter of 2018 was significantly lower than the 5.1 percent under Obama, 7.0 percent under George W Bush, or 7.5 percent under Clinton. Such skepticism was justified. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
