Prologue

1 Macroeconomics in April

    1.1 The Trend of the Global Manufacturing Industry is Weakening, and Uncertainties are Increasing

In April, the global economic index fell, and major economies including China, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Japan were all below the critical point, and the momentum of economic recovery still needs to be consolidated.

To sum up, the shrinking speed of the overall manufacturing industry is accelerating, and the global economic outlook continues to be unstable.

    1.2 The Electronic Information Manufacturing Industry Continued to Shrink and Fell into a Downturn

In Q1 2023, the production decline of the electronic information manufacturing industry narrowed, exports continued to decline, efficiency improved, and investment continued to grow.
