Kenya’s Economic Growth Slows to 4.0% in Q3 2024 Amid Sector Underperformance

As a result of poor performance in most sectors, Kenyas economic growth dropped to 4.0% in the third quarter of 2024 from 6.0% the same time the year

As a result of poor performance in most sectors, Kenyas economic growth dropped to 4.0% in the third quarter of 2024 from 6.0% the same time the year before, according to the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics. Significant factors contributing to the slowdown were mining and quarrying contracts, which fell by 11.1%, and construction contracts, which fell by 2.0%. Even if industries, including real estate, financial services, transportation, hospitality, and agriculture, helped stop the fall, widespread demonstrations over planned tax hikes at the end of the second quarter caused chaos and violence. Although the finance ministry expects a 5.2% expansion for 2024, the World Bank has lowered Kenyas growth prediction to 4.7% from 5.0%. Read More..

U.S. and Japan Reinforce Strong Ties Amid Confusion Over Nippon Steel’s Blocked Acquisition

President Joe Bidens decision to veto Nippon Steels $14.9 billion bid for U.S. Steel perplexed Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba. Still, the two

President Joe Bidens decision to veto Nippon Steels $14.9 billion bid for U.S. Steel perplexed Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba. Still, the two nations foreign ministers reaffirmed their longstanding connections on Tuesday. Given the political unrest in South Korea, this action was viewed as a blow to U.S. efforts to improve ties with Japan. It could make it more difficult for the U.S., South Korea, and Japan to work together trilaterally to resist Chinas military power. As they emphasised their dedication to continued collaboration, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Japanese Foreign Minister Takashi Iwaya talked about economic ties and investments. According to analysts, the merger decision may deter Japanese investment, but because of shared security concerns, it is unlikely to affect the relationship as a whole. Read More..
