Nominal GDP comparisons are extremely distorted by currency manipulation such as that practiced by China. Their “actual” GDP is a lot higher than what it is nominally because China artificially depreciates and keeps their currency value low to make their exports more attractive.
That’s why there’s seemingly no growth in Chinese GDP since 2020 when that couldn’t be further from the truth. A way to get around this is by measuring in PPP to get rid of currency fluctuations.
If you take out currency fluctuations, the Chinese economy grew nearly 57% from 2020 to 2025 and the US economy grew 43% over the same period. India managed 81% growth.
Please use the log, it would be so much better
Blue line: Almost 3 billion people
Red line: not even 350 millions
In what world is that comparable?
Comparing the *claimed* GDP. China’s numbers are highly dubious.
now do it by person inflation adjusted
„GDP“ is vague, be specific about what you’re representing here
GDP is a horrible measure
