Exports Slumped, Economy to Shrink Despite Fiscal Stimulus

Late last year external demand slumped for the economy of Taipei,China's manufactured products, including its vital electronics exports. With domestic demand also contracting, GDP growth was minimal. Inflation accelerated to a 14-year high, then subsided by year-end. Even though substantial fiscal stimulus is being injected this year and interest rates have been lowered, the economy is forecast to shrink by 4.0% before resuming low-level growth next year.
