Is the world economy dependent on the American economy?

[deon]

The world economy is intertwined, the US economy is dependent on the world economy and vice versa. Naturally the world economy would suffer greatly if the US economy failed, but it would eventually recover and other economies would fill the vacuum.

This was what I was gonna say.  If Europe, China, or the US economy fail the effects will be felt worldwide.  But things will recover.  This is part of the issue today,  Every region is messing with their currencies. Trying to force infinite economic growth every quarter.

....Europe, China, or the US economy fail the effects will be felt worldwide.  But things will recover....

I live in EU.
The problem is that ECB is printing money to keep bankrupt countries PIGS+Italy+few more in live.
EU as big biurocracy and big taxation nest is going down, EU leaders are borrowing money at 0% and eating
retirement people founds (in Polen ext). The problem is that noone is cutting of root of the problem.
Biuracacy and bankism, there is NO REAL free market we have rigged price of gold,silver.
Rigged price of homes (low interest rates = high house prices),
In agriculture we farmers are getting extra founds to be less expensive, and in that way they are forced to makes
things that EU goverment want. Milk,food limits every where no free market at all.

IN EU people in charge ar adicted from power they want more Muslims, more taxes, take more and more of ur freedom.
In US looks is going EU road... lets see Obama care...
In China is more capitalism markets that in EU+US less goverments law in economy
no patents, no stupid safety rules stuff like that no minimal wage ...
and 0 socializm ... China just piss on human rights.

Ach lets be hones socialism is wiping economy

Each developing economy is different, but at a high level, developing markets usually have a high proportion of GDP from these economic sectors:
- natural resources/commodity production
- tourism
- consumer goods manufacturing
- BPO

Since the US is the top commodity consumer, the leading consumer economy, and the leading user of BPO services, many developing economies are dependent on the US.

Tourism has a local/geographic characteristic that often determines its trading partners.  Mauritius may be a beautiful place to visit, but it isn't a common destination for vacationing Americans.

Europe not, they can do business with eatch other and Asia.
But yes they will feel it if the US goes bankrupt.
Canada but also south america will feel it real hard.

But still, this means that the whole world is depending on the American economy
I think the only countries who will be profiting from a crash in that market are the third world countries.

[expert4knowledge]

The world economy most certainly depends on its countries, not just American, just like crypto coins does, it depends very much to it's members

The bigger each economy, then the world is more dependent on special economy although it seems that it is changing now.

World economy is not dependent from Us economy the are just in tight correlation, and everything that is done in US can influence rest of the world.
Dollar is world spare currency, world needs oil and oil are selling for dollars..

If US fall,  Chine easily can take a laed!

[Windpower]

You see most things in the world are valued in US dollars. Gold, oil and Bitcoin. The world economy depends on the US dollar.

China's economy rising! After signing agreement with Iran, they will get cheapest oil!
China becoming new leader in the world!

[sishendaoye]

China's economy rising! After signing agreement with Iran, they will get cheapest oil!
China becoming new leader in the world!

This seems to be true. But remember China got problems too.
Their stocks are very low now, causing some world markets to be halt too.
I hope that the EU as a whole will become the world leader.

china is a leader in the sector of economy and trade. we can see an average of all goods made in China, both semi-finished goods and finished goods. and china also always destroy the price of goods in the world. and that is the uniqueness of china.

i don't think so but there are some countries that are heavily dependent on the American economy but many countries also not dependent on American economy and we can take the example for countries from the continent middle of asia such Saudi Arabia or Iran these countries has a very strong economy

Yes but those country do a lot of trading with the US. By no means would they go bankrupt but... they will feel it.
Same for china and other asian markets, they have a lot of business coming from the USA.

The world economy also dependent on American economy. Few reasons they have all growing technology and have advanced which makes high %people to get involved in it and now itself you can understand, while holidays in america there won't be much fluctuation. Most time the value will be stable

Yes and they are growing a lot, since their export could surpass Germany on 2010 then they show a new economy.

The global economy is not completely dependent on the American economy, however many countries are affected by the trading of America. Countries that rely heavily on trading with America will have to quickly try to find new opportunities, and that will in turn affect the global economy, but to say that the world is solely dependent on American economy is false.

[ace45954]

Yes, of course. When the US entered the Great Recession back in '08, the rest of the world followed it. Perhaps some countries, such as North Korea, aren't that dependent on it, but, as a whole, the world economy is very reliant on the United States. This will probably change in a few decades though.

i think Its because some infrastructure and other tradings is located in US?

[salinizm]

Is the world economy dependent on the American economy?

yes it is definitely dependent on american economy.. if it corrupts, all the world economy will corrupt too so god save the usa

[Bitcoinbro]

Is the world economy dependent on the American economy?

yes it is definitely dependent on american economy.. if it corrupts, all the world economy will corrupt too so god save the usa

I don't think that. The US economy is big and has influence.

But not by a long shot can they corrupt the world's economy. Not 1 country can do that.

It can be dependent on many things such as having biggest economy of the world  and producing most of the knowledge of the world there.

However it seems that China is replacing the us as the first economy in the world and maybe in future world economy is not dependent on the American Economy.
