All right lets check in now on some other stories making headlines around the world Irish Airline ryanair plans to increase flights to 40 percent of its usual capacity by july 1st as the company plots a route out of the Coronavirus Crisis since mid march ryanair has run just 30 flights a day as restrictions have effectively closed european groups the electric car maker tesla has resumed factory operations in california defying a local order restricting nonessential businesses of the company is suing local officials to overturn the order c.

And Clifford Coonan from business is with us to give us more perspective on the story hi cliff thanks for joining us so the price for goods like t. V. s phones they are dropping so what does this mean for the chinese economy what were seeing at the moment is a bit like one of those classic games of whack a mole theres all these different problems coming up every time we think weve isolated one problem another problem comes up what youre seeing is a problem a lack of supply and also a lack of demand so its basically a very very difficult situation to resolve i think a lot of people are hoping that we have a v. Shaped recovery but thats looking increasingly unlikely now its not going to rebound quickly its going to be maybe a slower recovery than we toss were now looking to see how this stage of matches up with whats happening in the rest of the world so what is trying to doing to try to jumpstart its economy when the last time we sold these kind of price falls Producer Prices fall like this was in the Global Financial crisis and china was able to spend its way out of out of trouble in those times this time it was this time it is not the same amount of money theres no other Global Demand to make up shortfalls and so its looking around to different ways it will introduce some stimulus measures which will help. Its hoping. That it can find some way to get out of a situation which economist at wells fargo is saying is all over the place are there any potential bright spots on the horizon if you look for example at the car market well i think there are i mean in some ways were looking at china because its a couple of weeks ahead of us and in terms of the cycle with the virus on the impact of the virus we saw a car figures car sales this week that folks are going to saying that their sales in china are ticking up a little bit. And so people are taking heart from that and hoping there will be some kind of you know indication could be a sign of just slowly slowly creeping back another positive that we had was the shanghai disneyland opened yesterday i mean obviously these things are not significant in terms of. There are Overall Economic value but they do have a very important sentiment indicator of a quite a dark time these sort of indicators are i think very important to give people hope people realize that there is light at the end of the tunnel and that there is possibly a way out of these is there any indication looking at china cliff how long the economic damage could last well this is this is the big question because its this thing about it being all over the place because normally you know you would have in a case of scarcity because there arent enough goods being produced prices would increase but that isnt happening because theres not enough demand and people are uncertain about where the future is going so actually timing what way things are going on how long things will take is still a very very difficult question for us to answer all right Clifford Coonan from d. W. Business thank you so much for joining us. Now oil giant a saudi aramco has seen a massive 25 percent drop in profits and warns of a challenging few months ahead among its concerns production cuts saudi arabia announced on monday it would deepen cuts by a further 1000000. 00 Barrels Per Day as Global Demand continues to weaken it is a blow for the company which celebrated the worlds biggest ever stock market listing just a few months ago. The world was a very different place last december when saudi aramco the Biggest Oil Company of them all went public in a blaze of glitz. The coronavirus pandemic means the bell has well and truly told for the oil sector even for a company then valued at a mind boggling 1. 00 trillion dollars the pandemic has quickly burned through balance sheets. The price of crude oil has plunged dramatically since coronavirus lockdowns led to a massive reduction in demand in the 6 months since around coal launched its shares oil has lost well over half its value on global markets. Saudi aramco has already felt the impact of. Its stock price has been in steady decline since the i. P. O. Yet so far it has not fallen anywhere near as sharply as the overall price of oil that may be because the Company Still plans on paying out a 25000000000. 00 dividend for the next 5 years however in what looks an increasingly barren time for the sector all bets are off in the oil kingdom.

All right our financial correspondent in frankfurt Chelsea Delaney is with us hi shell see so a 6 percent contraction that sounds extreme how likely is this could we see even in an even steeper decline.

Forecast the Economic Contraction forecasts for other countries in other countries and europe as well germany does seem to be getting off a little easier if they are able to stick to a 6 percent decline in the broader euro zone is expected to see the economy contract by 8 percent the United States is expected to see its economy shrink by 8 percent and some countries here in europe could see double digit declines and g. D. P. Could have more like italy or spain that have been hit really hard by the crisis and dont have as much fiscal we way but there are a lot of risks and uncertainties surrounding this that this forecasts one of these is obviously the concerns over a 2nd wave of infections and this is obviously a Huge Public Health concern but also its very concerning for businesses and consumers and workers if germany does have to roll back or air hit the pause button on some of these the easing of restrictions its expected to be happening over the next several weeks and even after the economy does fully reopen theres also this overhanging question of demand are people going to go back into into shops are they going to hold off on purchases so theres certainly a lot of a lot of potential downsides for the German Economy but we know that germanys an export nation as well in the german chambers of commerce are predicting a 20 percent pl
