The specific current economic or financial news event that has an impact on my chosen MNC with dates of the new

Summarise the main points of the chosen economic/financial news below.

Chinas economic new might be a threat to apple. Chinas economy increase not because of the external products but there internal goods. China relies on their manufactured good and this might be a threat.

The increased industrial boom of china and the growth of its market exports means that they are trying to be independent and only deal with exports as they produce most of their industries. This means that the market will be limited for products from other countries such as Apple. Especially now that the US market is closed for Huawei phone bards.

Nevertheless in the latest reports china has been seen to be more involved in trading with African countries and the Asian continent, they are not much involved in trading with USA and may be the UK this can be a threat for the product of Apple.

1. Measure 1

Apple should consider trying to expand its markets to other countries and continents. So that they do not fill a pinch even if country such as china decided to relay on their locally manufactured goods.

2. Measure

The company should consider investing in other countries such as South Africa and the Netherlands to avoid Losses as these countries also have got potential in doing business.

Summarise the main points of the chosen economic/financial news below.

The trade deal between UK- Brexit and Japan will be of significance to Toyota as they will be able to easily penetrate the UKs market and make trade deals that would be beneficial to the company. However, the issues with tax auditing might impact Toyota negatively. Economic news of China also might reduce Toyotas dominance in the country. This is because China is seeking to be self-depend and to invest in exports, not imports.

PEACE (Reuters) - Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corp. said it sold 11 per cent of the difference with Volkswagen AG and General Motors Co in the world's largest car market in UK last year, selling 1.8 million cars in last year. They fear that the current trades would reduce the company’s performance in UK if the deal between UK -Brexit fails to work.

Negative Impact 2
